Charizard-Mega-X @ Charizardite X
Ability: Tough Claws
EVs: 144 HP / 252 Atk / 112 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Dragon Claw
- Roost
- Flare Blitz
Charizard x is my main physical sweeper, Its pretty fast and bulky at the same time it also hits hard.
4 dragon dances is likely to kill now all competitive poke fans know that. The reason I picked X except of Y Is :Bulky,Fast when using dragon dance and its got a different typing than normal charizard this is good because people might think your Y or just Scarfed or Specs and try to thunder bolt you. By the way this pokemon is a beast

Rotom-Wash @ Chesto Berry
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 212 Def / 44 Spe
Bold Nature
- Volt Switch
- Hydro Pump
- Will-O-Wisp
- Rest
Rotom wash is my Physical wall with Charizard X running about I need to be careful. Thats why i run will o wisp to half its attack or any other physical threats im likely to out speed most Pokemon because I got 44 in speed I like this because i can hit rest before taking anymore damage then instantly wake up because of chesto berry
celebi.gif

Celebi @ Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 248 HP / 40 Def / 220 SpD
Calm Nature
- Giga Drain
- Baton Pass
- Heal Bell
- Recover
Celebi is my special. You may be wondering 'Why use Baton Pass?' This is because i like to switch out safely when i think a Pokemon has Pursuit and switch out to terrakion and get 1.5x attack because of Justify.

Terrakion @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Justified
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
- Close Combat
- Zen Headbutt
Speaking of terrakion hes the next Pokemon. Another Physical sweeper but this one not being bulky but its actually running the physical sweep set but with zen head but to destroy gengar and my weakness to fighting.
latios.gif

Latios (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Draco Meteor
- Psyshock
- Defog
- Calm Mind
Now... Latios my probably best Pokemon in the team. Why you ask? Well he out speeds pretty much everything and hits like a monster and just to make him more threatening i gave him a life orb and calm mind this set can also work as a special defensive wall since its got bass 110 special defense.
scizor.gif

Scizor @ Choice Band
Ability: Technician
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Bullet Punch
- U-turn
- Superpower
- Knock Off
Scizor is my Bulky defensive physical sweeper im not sure about this set but we needed a resistance to fairy so we chose Banded scizor With STAB Bullet punch and U-turn we all know how powerful this Pokemon is he can sweep team that's why hes out number 6
Be honest rate out of ten leave comments , suggestions to make the team better. Thanks :)

Chesto resto rotom w is a lackluster set, switch that to pain split over rest and lefties over chesto berry.
For latios, you could run a more offensive set which works better such as Draco | Psyshock | Defog | HP Fire
You also seem to lack special presence so you may want to get a special scarfer instead of Terrakion

Yeah we came up with this team yesterday after he asked about making a Megazard X team. The team-building process pretty much went as follows:

OP wanted Megazard X, so we started with that. Not much to say, great typing, hard hitter, reliable set-up, recovery, coverage, he's a classic good sweeper.

Rotom-W came next because it's Rotom, he's a classic for any team and I swear by this guy. He walls birdspam and Landorus pretty nicely, both of which are common threats in the meta. He's also the go-to defensive pivot in general, designed to switch in, tank a hit and switch out. His typing works great with Zard too since they eat eachothers' weaknesses quite nicely. Pretty solid pair.

I noticed we were on our way to a good F/W/G core so I suggested we round it off nicely with a good Grass type. I offered two suggestions: Ferro as a Hazard setter/Fairy blocker, or Celebi as a cleric. OP liked the sound of Celebi more so we decided to stick with her. She's a great answer to that annoying prick Breloom and is a decent overall cleric.

I found on another hread here in the RMT board a cool little gimmick to take advantage of threats like Bisharp and T-Tar. It was with Celebi's Baton Pass which allows it to switch out of obvious Pursuits which is helpful in its own right, what's even more helpful though is switching to Terrakion to take said Pursuit and get a nice Justified boost. Terrakion may seem a bit dated, but the idea of a +1 Scarfed Terrakion is definitely a scary one that can do some serious wall-breaking.

Ok, Defog support. No one should run a Charizard set without Defog support. I learned from my mistake before not to use Skarm, good God no. Something more offensive was needed in order to keep the pressure on opponents and not give them good leave to set up and wreck shop while there's this unnecessary dead-weight on the field for Defog support. Long story short, Latios is the answer to all or most of the world's problems. Hits hard specially which we needed, and clears Rocks. Nice and simple.

I looked over our bunch to see what we were missing and I noticed two things: Fairy bait, and no priority. First thought says Scizor was the good round-off for this team to deal with this problem. Banded Scizor is still a tough motherfucker and has a lot of useful utility with Knock Off and makes a nice Volt-Turn core with Rotom. His Bullet Punches pick off weakened foes and handle Fairies well and he seemed like a good concluder to this team.

I don't use this team personally so I don't really have a solid threat-list, but looking at it it looks very much like Lando bait if Rotom goes down, with nothing but Scizor taking neutral damage from his general movset, and what's Scizor going to do to a Lando? Gliscor is very hard to handle too, only Rotom is any good answer to it again, and if it's not caught on the switch with a Will-O or Knock Off then it pretty much won't die. Not sure what else, I'm sure there's more, but that's all I noticed on first glance.
 
On a side-note, I suggested Rest-O Chesto Rotom because I always found it more reliable than Pain Split. Personally it's just always worked out better and I prefer the certainty of solid and reliable recovery that Rest has to offer.
