Seeking advice

    Hey everyone. I'm in a bit of a bind at the moment and I was wondering if I can get some advice. After three days of breeding, I finally hatched the Torchic egg I was seeking. However, I stumbled upon another Torchic egg that's a little similar:

    Both have perfect IVs in every stat except Special Attack.
    Both have Speed Boost & Baton Pass


    However, like every other Pokémon, they have their differences:

    One is Male and the other is Female
    Male is Impish and Female is Adamant


    Now I do have the Blazikenite and only one of them is going to hold it while the other plays a different role with another team. Any suggestions on the move set for both Pokémon? Anything would greatly be appreciated.

    Only use the Adamant Torchic for Baton Passing purposes. Impish doesn't help Blaziken's poor bulk. Though Jolly is the preferred nature to increase the odds of you getting off a quick Baton Pass, Adamant is still viable for the extra power. Leftovers > Blazikenite as the item because regaining extra HP from Substitute is useful; it also helps mitigate Flare Blitz recoil:
    -Flare Blitz
    -Protect
    -Substitute/Roar
    -Baton Pass
    Nature: Jolly/Adamant
    EVs: 4 HP/252 Atk/252 Spe
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Speed Boost
     
    Adamant normal Blaziken is kind of sub optimal because it won't make the jump over Scarf-Latios at +2. However, Mega Blaziken is actually fast enough to pull it off and isn't much less powerful than Jolly LO Blaziken.

    We are not sure whether you guys have realized but along side with Baton Pass Low Kick became legal. If you hate High Jump Kick with passion or are playing Doubles where everyone and their mom carry Protect, then this is a fair substitute now.
     
    I came up with their moveset despite the fact they are still at Level 1 thanks to real-life:

    Sensei (Male)
    Item: Life Orb (not obtained yet)
    Moves: High Jump Kick, Flare Blitz, Substitute, Baton Pass

    Scarlet (Female)
    Item: Blazikenite
    Moves: High Jump Kick, Blaze Kick, Swords Dance, Baton Pass


    The moves are subjected to change as I continue to brainstorm. Once the moves have been officially decided, I can work towards the EVs.


    EDIT: Might replace Baton Pass on Sensei with a coverage move like Stone Edge..

    You're better off using the female Blaziken; don't bother with the male one; it's wasted because of Blaziken's inherently frail defenses, even with investment.
