Bastiodon @ Iron Ball
Nature: Careful
Ev's: 252 Hp 252 Spd 4 Def
- Taunt
- Metal Burst
- Toxic
- Block
Although Bastiodon may not be the first choice of a lead, I use him as a lead eater. He can be relied upon to kill any strong leads with super-effective moves like earthquake easily. He simply lets them hit him, goes down to 1 Hp and then uses metal burst, taking them out no problem. This often takes people by surprise, and can often set the game up for me. Taunt is used to prevent baton-passers from stat-boosting and block can be used to stall out another pokemon in combination with toxic.

Gallade @ Life Orb
Nature: Jolly
Ev's: 252 Atk 252 Spd 4 Hp
- Close Combat
- Psycho Cut
- Stone Edge
- Swords Dance
As my favourite pokemon, Gallade was always going to make it in my team. His awesome typing and amazing attack stat makes a great mid-end game physical sweeper. His Close Combat destroys, and psycho cut gives a reliable STAB attack. Stone edge is great for coverage on fire and flying types. Usually Gallade switches in on a wall and then has time to set up a few swords dances, after which he is very hard to stop.

Chandelure @ Life Orb
Nature: Timid
Ev's: 252 SpA 252 Spd 4 Hp
- Shadow Ball
- Flamethrower
- Pain Split
- Energy Ball
My Special Sweeper, Chandelure can usually be caught switching on a fire attack to boost its fire with flash fire and then killing 2 or 3 pokemon with a boosted flamethrower. Shadow ball is another STAB move, and energy ball covers water types well. Pain split can recover lost life orb health, whilst taking away the opponents health.

Blissey @ Leftovers
Nature: Relaxed
Ev's: @ 252 Hp 252 Def 4 SpD
- Wish
- Heal Bell
- Thunder Wave
- Psychic
Blissey works with Bastiodon, and can wall almost all special attacks. First she paralyzes the opponent then heal bells if necessary and then uses wish. Half of her massive Hp completely restores bastiodons health, allowing him to use sturdy-metal burst combo again. Psychic is included just incase it is needed.

Swampert @ Leftovers
Nature: Relaxed
Ev's: 240 Hp 164 Def 104 SpD
- Earthquake
- Waterfall
- Roar
- Stone edge
Swampert is my bulky water type, and boasts pretty good all-round defenses. STAB earthquakes and Waterfalls are very reliable, and stone edge takes out any flying types. Roar is used to stop any stat boosters before they build up momentum.

Weavile @ Life Orb
Nature: Adamant
Ev's: 252 Atk 252 Spd 4 Hp
- Low Kick
- Ice Shard
- Fake Out
- Night Slash
Weavile is my sweeper response unit, coming in after a previous pokemon fainting. He fake outs, getting some free damage, and then proceeds to completely out speed them with ice shard. Night slash is a useful STAB and low kick OHKOs a Tyranitar, and so is a very useful move.
