Venusaur @ Choice Scarf
Timid Nature
Overgrow
EV: 56 Hp, 252 Special Attack, 200 Speed
~Sleep Powder
~Leaf Storm
~HP Ice/Sludge Bomb (HP if I get lucky like always)
~Earthquake
My lead, venusaur with a choice scarf gets respectable speed, and Leaf Storm is no big deal since this is more of a hit-and-run venusaur. Sleep Powder so that if the other lead pokemon is something that can beat me, i can outspeed him and put him to sleep, then switch out to a counter.

Deoxys-S @ Choice Specs
Rash Nature
Pressure
EV:160 HP, 252 Special Attack, 96 Speed
~Shadow Ball
~Psycho Boost
~Ice Beam
~Super Power
Deoxys has Some good special attacks and Psycho boost is an amazing STAB (specs-mence anyone?) I've heard his performance is Sub-par, but I need to see it for myself.

Donphan @ Leftovers
Impish Nature
Sturdy
EV: 252 HP, 252 Defense, 6 Attack
~Rapid Spin
~Stealth Rock
~Ice Shard
~Earthquake
A physical waller. Donphan can bypass his weak speed with ice shard, or if he is battling a defensive pokemon ignore it and hit with EQ for a powerful STAB running off of 120 base attack. Sets up Stealth Rock and removes spikes/rocks from my side.

Noctowl @ Leftovers
Careful Nature
Insomnia
EV: 252 HP, 252 Special Defense, 6 Special Attack
~Roost
~Hypnosis
~Psycho Shift
~Night Shade
A unique special wall. If a normal type comes out I can put it to sleep then switch out. Psycho Shift counters any status that enemies try to inflict, roost recovers.

Weavile @ Expert Belt
Jolly nature
Pressure
EV: 40 HP, 252 Attack, 216 Speed
~Pursuit
~Ice Shard/Punch
~Brick Break
~Aerial Ace

Revenge Kill Weavile. Pursuit stops any escapees, Ice shard/punch (i cant decide) as STAB, brick break for super effective hits on sturdier pokemon and bliss, and aerial ace is mostly just for Hera.

Staraptor @ Life Orb
Jolly
Intimidate
EV: 16 HP, 252 Attack, 240 Speed
~Brave Bird
~Close Combat
~Return
~U-Turn
Instead of CB I stuck this Staraptor with the life orb for versatility. Sadly with both Life Orb and Brave Bird I could take some heavy damage, but I can save brave bird for emergency situations and base most of my assaults around Close Combat and Return.

Choice Scarf w/ Sleep Powder? O_o i... really would utilize CB on Staraptor's set. AA does pretty terrible on Weavile, as you probably wouldn't keep it on fighting types, especially mach punching ones. Psycho Shift? i understand night shade, but plox go air slash, thnx. again, psycho boost would be pretty terrible on a choice specs set. i prefer spikes > SR. but meh.

Staraptor @ Leftovers ** emo Hawk
Trait: Intimidate

Impish Nature (+DEF, -SPATK)
- Brave Bird

will edit later.

Staraptor isnt really bulky enough to pull off that set i dont think.

Sleep powder on choice scarf is there because he is a lead, and if the other lead has an advantage i can sleep and run.

Intimidate + the EVs = yes he can...

i can do calcs if you want.

i don't consider speed more of a hit-and-run and set, rather raw power e.g Choice Specs.

well he is meant for physical attacks here, and i never was much of a toxic staller kinda player.

depends on what your kind of play is, though. so you're kinda right.

perhaps this will will suffice for you?

that was my origional thought actually, but that gives me 3 choice users and that seems kinda risky.
