    First of all, the Spiky Skarmory!

    Careful Skarmory (@Leftovers)
    Agility
    Whirlwind (Maxed out Power Points)
    Roar (Maxed out Power Points)
    Spikes

    Careful Nature helps buff up Special Defence so it is close to the high Defence of Skarmory, allowing Spikes to be used three times on the opponent, and for me to use Agility at least once. Whirlwind and Roar are used in the same moveset incase the Power Points don't run out, and both are mawed out!
    With this Skarmory being my lead Pokemon, an enemy team will be crippled by the time they get rid of Skarmory, allowing the rest of my team to come in for the boom!

    Jolly Ninjask (@Leftovers)
    Substitute
    Swords Dance
    Protect
    Baton Pass

    Adamant Kecleon (@Leftovers)
    Substitute
    Focus Punch
    Shadow Ball
    Iron Tail

    The Ninjask is suppused to Baton Pass to Kecleon after maximising Attack with Swords Dance. Then my Kecleon can use Substitute, and Fucus Punch!
    Mwahahahahaha! Shadow Ball is for ghosts and Iron Tail is for backup.

    Jolly Heracross (@Salac Berry)
    Endure
    Reversal
    Megahorn
    Swords Dance

    Now this is something worth looking at! Heracross uses Swords Dance as its first attack, and if the opponent hasn't lowered the Health Points of this bug much by the time it uses Swords Dance three times, I crush their Pokemon with Megahorn! But, if the Health Points are too low, I will use Endure so my enemy brings Heracross's health to one! The Salac Berry plus the Jolly Nature makes formidable speed, I use Reversal!

    Adamant Slaking (@Choice Band)
    Hyper Beam

    Need I say much about this big guy?


    Careful Metagross (@Scope Lens)
    Earthquake
    Meteor Mash
    Body Slam
    Swords Dance

    Okay, since Metagross has higher Defence than Special Defence, I gave it the Careful Nature (Special Defence > Special Attack) to make it last in battle long enough to use Swords Dance three times! Then, I either Quake, Mash, or Slam! CRUSH! Scope Lens is for higher chance of Critical Hit.
     
    boy, that Skarmory needs serious help. U only need whirlwind OR roar, ur not gonna run out. He doesn't even hav any damaging moves!!! I'm 2 lazy to type it, so go to my latest thread and get HellishHades Skarm moveset. I don't like Kelceon, cause he's TOO easy to take advantage of. Start off battle w/ Blazikens Sky Uppercut, switch to Latias and use Psychic, switch to Dusclops and use Shadow ball, that there is three super effective attacks, and will kill him in 2 or 3 hits. WAY to easy to defeat. Its good to abuse Slakings ability w/ Hyper Beam, that way the turn he slacks off he is ALSO recharging. However, u'll run out of PP pretty quick, so he should also have double-edge or return or something. With Ninjakask, (who i don't use cause he sooooo OU), u can either hav swords dance to baton pass (which all of ur Phy. sweepers already hav), or u could choose Double Team (MUCH better choice-it is SOOOOOOO frusterating).
     
    Skarmory@Leftovers-Careful
    Agility
    Whirlwind/Roar
    Toxic
    Spikes

    I'm not sure if Agility will do it any good. Either NB is bugged or I'm wrong, but whenever I use Roar or Whirlwind, my Aerodactyl always goes last and it has 394 Speed. ToxiSPike shuffling. It doesn't need any attack moves Mew9. Not nessecarily. Spikes will do 25 percent HP damage and at the end of each turn Toxic will double.

    Jolly Ninjask@Liechi or Petaya Berry
    Substitute
    Swords Dance
    Protect/Silver Wind
    Baton Pass

    I don't really see much of a use for Leftys if you're gonna sub BP. And you'll only get a chance to use Dance if the sub ever lives. If it always dies, then you still be able to gain SOME attack through the berry and BP it over to Kecleon.

    Kecleon is fine the way it is I guess. I don't see how subsituting can help with Focus Punch if the substitute gets killed right after you use it. You'll be faster than all Pokemon so you'll sub first, then they'll attack and probably kill the sub. I've never seen a subby doll live more than one turn. Eh, if it works for you, whatever.

    Heracross is fine the way it is. Ninjask can also BP to Heracross to make Reversal all the more deadly. You'll get pwned by QAers though.

    Slaking is fine jsut the way it is. Mew9, giving Slaking any other moves isn't that useful with Choice Band. Hyper Beam will pretty much OHKO anything since it gets STAB and 1.5 bonus from Band. Won't really matter if it runs out of PP though. It'll take a lot of damage when it's not attacking.

    Metagross is also fine the way it is. if it works for you, use it. But I'd say take out Body Slam for Psychic for Brelooms. Metagross can't learn Swords Dance according to the PokeDex on NB. So put in Agility for the Speed. But if you want Attack power, there's stll the Ninjask, which can BP to every Pokemon on your team actually.
     
    pseudohaze ALWAYS strike last... it's even in the move description -_-

    Skarm- no comment

    Ninjask- be sure that your speed is one point higher than jolly electrode, and chance protect to silver wind to take out Alakazams... I don't think jolly is necessary... change it to adamant to get a nice 304 atk power with STAB silver wind. Leftovers are sometimes used on Ninjask to give Ninjask more hp to use sub (now you can use 7 subs instead of 4)

    Kecleon is a poor sub-focus puncher if it's getting baton passed to... might as well just use brick break. Iron Tail is one of the crappiest TM ever... dump that useless junk for return as a nice STAB.

    Heracross- swords dance does make things a lot more deadly, but keep in mind that now flying types even without QA can mess you over due to resistance to megahorn or reversal...

    Slaking- stick on shadowball ot hit ghosts that hyper beam cannot... that's a MUST HAVE. Slaking even with choice should have 4 solid phyiscal move that allows it to take care of anything of anytype except for Skarm.

    Metagross- can't swords dance or else I'll be using one and abuse 800 attack power long time ago... standard brelooms no longer die in one psychic. I'll consider sludge bomb if Brelooms are a problem. Psychic is a possbility against Weezing, not Breloom.
     
    Demonchaos, did u say his Slakings moveset waz fine???!!! All he has is hyper beam!!!
    (sarcastic) sounds good to me! And since u put Toxic on Skarm, i assume u were suggesting to make it a staller, so y not give it rest? Not many things more annoying than a resting skarm.
     
    I think his Skarmory is a Toxi-Shuffler and not a Staller Mew9. And Skarmory usually get killed easily by any Sp. Sweeper, so Rest isnt that important
     
    rest is used on Skarmory after stalling 8 turns of physical attack, switch out to Blissey, bell, and comes a new Skarmory ready to shuffle your poor team on Spikes once again! Without heal beller, Skarmory should hold either chesto or just dump rest.

    Slaking using choice band is usually a dead enemy if it hits. Even Skarmory takes major damage from it. However you still need 4 moves, planning in advance how to hit just any type that comes at you.
