I have used four of those.
Doublade (69/120/160/55/59/45): When I use it, it is generally a set up sweeper / physical tank. It performs both of those roles quite well with a good typing and STAB priority. As I can't speak for anyone else's sets, mine runs eviolite for extra bulk.
Chansey (250/5/5/35/105/50): Ok, I don't think anybody uses it differently than me. It is used as a wall and a cleric. It gets access to both wish (off of its amazing hp) and access to heal bell/aromatherapy. It also can harm the opponent with toxic stall or seismic toss. There aren't any changes from how it is used in ou, so again, it runs eviolite.
Scyther (85/125/95/70/95/120): This thing is used as a set up sweeper. It is the only roll I have seen for it. (Also credit to Gimlaf because I basically stole his set n_n) It pulls it off well with solid 90 power moves, amazing bulk with eviolite, and Swords Dance. Once again, I use eviolite.
Togetic (70/55/100/95/120/55): This thing. Probably my least favorite thing that I have ever used in TS. Maybe I was using it wrong? It got 2hko'd or Ohko'd by everything I sent it in against. I used it because it is very versatile. You would use Eviolite, hopefully. It isn't bulky enough to deal with the current meta, especially if somebody sets up stealth rocks. I suppose you would be using it for a cleric or a defogger, or maybe a bulky pivot.
The only other NFE that has caught my eye is sneasel. It has 70/110/70/50/90/130 stats. It isn't necessarily better or worse than weavile, however. It has 15 points lower attack, although it has more bulk. I personally prefer weavile, but people have freedom of using pokemon or whatever. Its general set would be like a band, a life orb, or an eviolite or something.
NFEs add value by diversifying the meta even more. Some of them even strictly outclass their evolutions. A lot are bulkier because of eviolite. However, it creates problems because knock off is fairly common, making them lose their bulk.
Some other items could be choice items and life orbs. They already ahve a defensive item in eviolite, so lets go to offensive n_n Choice items and life orbs can be used on stuff such as revenge killers like sneasle, as well as sweepers like haunter.
