I'm sorry, alexwolf, but isn't that the very definition of speed creeping? I'd say you either stick to outspeeding Alakazam (216 Speed EVs are needed, since 212 force a Speed tie with non-HP Fire Zam) and Dugtrio, or you go ahead and max Speed to tie with opposing Weavile. Dunno if there's anything worthwhile inbetween those two, but I doubt it—there's the incredibly uncommon Jolly Scarf Scizor (228 Spe EVs), and that's about it. And I really see no point on trying to be faster than it anyway, since you're gonna be forced out whatever set it's running
