In a Double Battle, a teammate uses Follow Me and then the other teammate uses Nasty Plot, the Follow Me user uses Recover/Roost when on low HP, and then the Nasty Plot user sweeps. Does it work?

please refrain from such language in your posts.
What kind of doubles? VGC, OU, or something else?
It is a quite good strategy. You can pair for example a Follow Me Blastoise with a Dragon Dance Dragapult and you are good to go

Yes, that strategy will be quite effective, although the two together will not do any damage. If paired up with a strong move like Sucker Punch, however, you can get an impressive result!

I send my warnings, though - if you have an easy double battle against Team Yell, for instance, you don’t need to waste those moves on them. They can instead be defeated by a few strategic move combinations.

Hope this helped :)

Team Yell fights are in-game, correct? This asks for competitive.
Sucker Punch is a physical move, and Nasty Plot powers up Sp. Atk
