I have two sets of Nidoran (f) and I'm wondering which is better in each case.

The first set are both Bold with Hustle
(1) 31/31/31/31/14/31
(2) 31/16/31/31/30/17

It will be for use with Toxic Spikes, so I guess it comes down to whether it benefits more from 31 in Speed or more Special bulk.

The second set are both Modest with hustle and look like this:
(3) 31/11/31/31/25/31 - So the SpD is it's weakness IV-wise
(4) 31/0/27/31/31/31 - So this time it's the Defence.
 
Scrafty can snowball quite easily once it gets going thanks to Moxie. You might want something like CB Terrakion to weaken Physical walls like Gliscor and Skarmory, or a Spikes support with something like Skarmory to make it easier to attempt a late game sweep. After a Dragon Dance, (assuming thats the set you are running) Scarfty is still outrun by many Scarfers so perhapes a Jirachi or Celebi could spread some Paralysis support to help Scarfty get the jump on scarfers such as Terrakion.

Yeah I am running:
DD
Drain Punch
Ice Punch
Crunch

I mostly only play against my friends, and Scrafty is by far my most consistent pokemon and powerful guy. One of the guys that gives me a lot of trouble is Ferrothorn (I need to get HP-fire on my Espeon.....)

I had been thinking about a Skarmory, so i think I will make one, thanks. How do I go about getting a Skarmory that knows Roost?

I have a bunch of good pokemon, but for some reason I really struggle trying to think in terms of party chemistry.
 
What works really well with helping Scrafty Set up (DDance)?
Lum Berry could help against bulky waters and other defensive Pokemon trying to status you and of course teammates that lure in Pokemon Scrafty can set-up on, wich is alot considering Scrafty is really bulky and can take almost every attack that isn't SE or super strong like Specs Draco Meteors or Weather boosted attacks.
 
Alakazam is incredibly fast and still pretty damn powerful - in fact, while I'm sure Reuniclus gets a couple more KOs, the power difference is too small to really tell.
 
More importantly, Alakazam doesn't need a setup turn, meaning it's a more effective revenge killer and doesn't have to worry about taking a hit before it attacks.
 
What's a good pokemon for combating Sand Stall?

Edit: Taking Pokemon such as Latias, Ferrothorn, Tyranitar, Hippodown, Skarmory, Jellicent, Slowbro, and Gliscor into consideration. If one is not enough, which two or three?
 

D'oh.
How embarrassing xD

Pokemon that have Levitate/Flying type +TBolt good enough?

Latios(as) Azelf, Gengar, Elektross.
Dragonite, Emolga, Zapdos, Thundurus.
