I need an idea for a physical sweeper for my double battle team.
Oranguru @Sitrus Berry / Mental Herb
Nature: Relaxed (+Defense, -Speed)
Ability: Inner focus/Telepathy
EVs: 252 HP / 128 Defense / 132 Sp. Defense
0 IVs in Speed
- Trick Room
- Protect
- Instruct
- Psychic
Scolipede @Focus Sash
Nature: Jolly (+Speed, -Sp. Attack)
Ability: Speed Boost
EVs: 252 Attack / 252 Speed / 4 HP
-Swords Dance
-Megahorn
-Baton Pass
-Protect
Shuckle @Leftovers/Chesto Berry
Nature: Relaxed (+Defense -Speed)
Ability: Contrary
EVs: 252 HP / 128 Defense / 128 Sp. Defense
-Shell Smash
-Guard Split
-Toxic
-Rock Slide
First, send out Oranguru and Scolipede. Have Scolipede use Swords Dance, and then have Oranguru instruct it to use it again. Next, Scolipede use protect (for speed boost), and Oranguru use Psychic. Then Baton Pass on scolipede to your sweeper, and use protect on Oranguru. Switch out Oranguru for Shuckle, and do something with the sweeper. Then have your Shuckle use Guard Swap on your Sweeper, so it's defensive stats go through the roof. Then You can either switch Shuckle back out for Oranguru, and spam Instruct, or keep Shuckle in and get some Contrary Shell Smashes, then Toxic, then spam Rock Slide
(If you have any team suggestions/replacements, please comment them too! I'm not perfect)
I need a PHYSICAL sweeper that fulfills its role in the team.
Thanks!
