I used this:

Serperior @ Life Orb
Contrary / Timid
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
- Leaf Storm
- Giga Drain
- HP Ice / Fire
- Taunt

Excellent stallbreaker, sweeper, (tank?), and can easily break defensive cores. Leaf Storm spam at the beginning, as with every Serperior, and then once you encounter some pressure users, Giga Drain has its appeal, since its also ridiculously powerful after a couple of Leaf Storms. Furthermore, the recovery allows Serperior to run Life Orb, making its attacks even more powerful. The HP is obvious, Fire brutally massacres the 4x Grass resists like Scizor, Genesect, Ferrorthorn, Forretress, Skarmory, etc, while HP Ice is for Dragons. HP Ice with Magnezone/Chandy support is also a highly effective strategy

I swear this is my absolute favourite Pokemon to use in DW...
