It's only hope post-bank is going to be move tutors and a shifting meta that favours role compression (even then, it'll have to deal with 4MSS).

It does have a niche. It can spinblock while walling or outspeeding nearly every spinner bar Alolan Sandslash (and maybe Mega Blastoise) and grab momentum (Dhelmise straight up deals damage). Long Reach (eventually) will mean you cannot punish uturns with passive damage from Rough Skin/Rocky Helmet.

You'll need someone to deal with Bisharp if you're going to use Clefable with Decidueye. Also having Wish support gives Decidueye frees up Roost and gives another moveslot to play with.

One of the nice things of being a Ghost/Dark is having three immunities. Combine it with Prankster Recover, and I would say Sableye should be ok unless it's a hard hitting Fire type.

The only reason why you would want to use Own Tempo is Petal Dance, and it's a terrible move to be locked into. You want the ability to put a check to sleep to set up Quiver Dance before hitting them with a Giga Drain, which has the plus benefit of healing Life Orb recoil.

Here's one Lilligant set I'm currently using. Lilligant@Life Orb Timid Nature Chlorophyll 4HP/252SpA/252Spe Sleep Powder Quiver Dance Giga Drain HP Rock/Ice/Fighting The only reason why I put Rock is because Delphox can resist +2 Giga Drain and hit hard with Fire Blast. Otherwise, i'm getting...

Bisharp is a good teammate to have if Defog comes into play or Gengar wants to use Sludge Wave (be careful of focus blast, however). However, it doesn't enjoy either a fire attack or Will-o-wisp. Trevenaunt is the biggest threat not only to Chesnaught, but to your team. It can either use...

Small nitpick, most Sylveons are male since it's an Eeveelution. Should the term "she" should be reserved for Pokemon species that are confimed all female (eg, Chansey line, Kangaskhan, Mandibuzz line)

You have to breed for it. Good news is that Croagunk learns it naturally, so there's that.

Should prankster Sableye be given a mention? Switch into power-up punch and proceed to Wil-O-Wisp, but only for her mega forme (scrappy will be a factor vs Sableye).
