    Hey guys so far I know I'm going to use these two:

    Special Sweeper
    Scrappy (Gengar)
    Ability: Levitate
    EVs: 252 SAtk/ 252 Spd/ 4 SDef
    Timid Nature
    -Shadow Ball
    -Thunderbolt
    -Dazzling Gleam
    -Sludge Bomb

    Physical Sweeper
    Blaze (Blaziken)
    Ability: Speed Boost
    EVs: 252 Atk/ 252 Spd/ 4 Def
    Adament Nature
    -Blaze Kick
    -Brave Bird
    -Protect
    -Brick Break

    I'm really only trying to look for a third team member because online you only put in three. Any suggestions?

  • I don't think Gengar needs Dazzling Gleam, tbh. It already hits Dragons hard with Shadow Ball:
    -Shadow Ball
    -Sludge Bomb
    -Substitute/Protect
    -Focus Blast/Hidden Power (Fire)
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 4 Def/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Black Sludge/Life Orb

    or
    -Shadow Ball
    -Sludge Bomb
    -Focus Blast
    -Thunderbolt/Hidden Power (Ice/Fire)
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 4 Def/252 SAtk/252 Spe
    Item: Choice Scarf

    Brave Bird doesn't have good coverage on Blaziken. Blaziken also has a stronger Fighting STAB in High Jump Kick:
    -Swords Dance/Baton Pass
    -Flare Blitz
    -High Jump Kick
    -Protect/Baton Pass
    Nature: Adamant/Jolly
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
    Item: Life Orb/Leftovers/Blazikenite
    Ability: Speed Boost

    Hazard setters like Ferrothorn work nicely on the team to help ensure OHKOs/2HKOs like Skarmory and Ferrothorn:

    Ferrothorn:
    -Spikes/Stealth Rock
    -Leech Seed/Thunder Wave
    -Power Whip/Gyro Ball
    -Stealth Rock/Gyro Ball/Protect
    Nature: Relaxed
    EVs: 252 HP/76 Def/180 SDef or 252 HP/200 Def/56 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Iron Barbs

    Skarmory:
    -Spikes
    -Whirlwind
    -Roost
    -Brave Bird/Steel Wing/Taunt
    Nature: Impish/Careful
    EVs: 224 HP/252 Def/32 SDef or 224 HP/32 Def/252 SDef
    Item: Leftovers/Shed Shell
    Ability: Sturdy
