    that can learn agility + batton pass + some kind of sleep enducing or freeze enducing move, anything to stop them attacking for a few turns.

    not including smeargle, something that can last a turn or two.

    also was wondering about ninjask, maybe if that can learn batton pass (which i think it can cant it? o.0) would the stat boosts from its trait be carried over? so maybe a sleep enducing move from a ninjask would work wonders.

    you see i had this idea of building speed, switching to my sweeper while the opponent is asleep (they will either switch out, or waste a turn trying to attack, giving me a free turn either way)... then building up power (belly drum, swords dance, nasty plot, whatever) and hitting them with a super speed, super power, sweeper.

    i also figured out that a snorlax could outrun most pokemon this method.... roflmao, so a belly-lax would cause serious problems.
     
    Ninjask is one of the best passers out there, and yes its boosts can be passed
     
    I think the perfect Pokémon you are looking for is Yanmega. It can use Hypnosis as a sleep move, and can Baton Pass the trait Speed Boosts.

    EDIT: Scratch that, I thought Yanmega could learn BP...
     
    Ninjask is a baton passer, and a rather good one at that... Speed Boost is passed

    The only pokemon capable of doing Agility, Baton Pass and Sleep Powder is Venomoth, but I don't know how long it will last

    lol, i was looking on bulbapedia because i wasnt sure that was correct. glad you corrected yourself before i spent an hour finding out how to learn BP :P

    EDIT: venomoth isnt a bad suggestion, lol. i overlooked that, its stats arent BAD, and would do a better job than what my smeargle plan would have done... only problem would be if it gets killed first hit, i mean base HP 70, defence 60, sp defence 75... it could give me problems, lol

    I think Venomoth and Ninjask are nice Pokemon, so I suggest you use them. Ninjask is better in my opinion, though.
     
    yea, i think i will, the defences will be okay once EV is distributed between them, and it can learn swords dance too, so could in theory be good to set up a physical sweeper.
     
    How about Smeargle? Couldn't he have those desired moves?

    yea he could, but with his frankly dreadful stats he wouldnt be able to last long enough to even get 1 turn off sleep enducing move in =/... unless i put everything into HP def and special def.
     
    If you want to know every possibility, try Serebii. I think there's a thing that you can put desired moves into and it will tell you what can have that moveset.
