I would like a Pokemon that has two of these three qualities:

  1. Has No Guard
  2. Learns Skill Swap (Entrainment may work too)
  3. Learns OHKO moves

Obviously this is a Doubles strategy to get guaranteed OHKOs.

no pokemon with No Guard has a OHKO move. This is obviously done on purpose so nobody can immediately win a battle (especially wifi battles), you can use PP Ups to get it to 8PP and automatically win Wifi and ingame battles. Sooo yeah
That's not entirely true though, in generation 1, Machamp can learn no guard via the TM given by Giovanni, which you could easily use the virtual console and bring up via Bank/Home

There is actually a way to do this, but it requires some set up.

The other answers are correct - no single Pokemon gets this. However, it is still possible to legally do.

You need to have a Pokemon with No Guard (e.g. Machamp) in with Smeargle. Smeargle copies the No Guard Pokemon's ability with Role Play, and then sweeps with a OHKO move.

A similar idea can use Dusclops for a similar purpose. Have Dusclops and a No Guard Pokemon in. Dusclops uses Skill Swap to get No Guard itself. Since Dusclops is extremely bulky, it can last a few turns in battle, and gives you time to switch out Machamp to a Pokemon with a OHKO move. Dusclops then Skill Swaps the No Guard onto the Pokemon with the OHKO move.

Here is a video of this happening with Smeargle using Sheer Cold, if you are interested.
