    Thanx, sorry I was a little angry earlier lol...
     
    You forgot Donphan in the physical walls and rapid spinners. The three best are Starmie, Claydol and Donphan just so you know stricken.
     
    Is roserade a good Sp sweeper? I was thinking of trying it out.
     
    Forgot Donphan too? I'll add 'em both.

    EDIT: As for roserade, I don't like it all too much, but that's just me. I can't help ya much with that one.

    Click to expand...

    Roserade is an excellent Special Sweeper. 125 Base Special Attack and 90 Base Speed aren't something you cna just ignore. Top that with that all powerful Leaf Storm and you got something stronger then Salamence's Draco Meteor.
     
    Yeah, it sure has potential, I just don't like it. I'm sure punishment can give you a fine moveset. I'll ad roserade to the list.
     
    I sure will...

    Roserade is the only other Pokemon to have access to Natural Cure and Aromtheraphy. Unfortunately it is falters as a wall so we probabaly wont be using it.

    Roserade@Choice Scarf/Life Orb/Leftovers
    Natural Cure
    Timid Nature
    252 Sp. Atk / 252 Speed / 6 HP
    -Leaf Storm
    -Sludge Bomb
    -Sleep Powder
    -Shadow Ball/HP Fire/Aromatheraphy

    First two moves are for obvious STAB. Roserade is an awesome hit and run Pokemon with Choice Scarf. Roserade also makes a great lead as it has a movepool that can hit nearly each type hard for neutral damage at least. Sleep Power is to stop those who would ruin her day.
     
    Hey... you forgot crobat in hazer/phazers... he can do both.
     
    How'd I forget Crobat? He's one of my fav pokemon! ~added~ Hope my list helpes everybody. Lemme know if there's something to add.
     
    SWEET!!!!!!!! then that means that my thoughts of using her as a spec. sweeper were good thoughts afterall.

    Would it be bad to have infernape/gyarados/garchomp in the same team. I think it might be because they are all att. sweepers. and I want a bit of variety. But I feel the need to cover bases with a earth/fire/water type. So any input on replacements would be <3'd
     
    Gyarados and Infernape both tremble to the ever so common Starmie. So does Garchomp tp a lesser extent. Garchomp is the one to keep in the bunch though. Gyarados and Infernape both have their merits but ultimately it is down to your preferences.
     
    Ugh, I can give you movesets, if that helps:

    Infernape@Choice Scarf/Band
    Jolly Nature
    EVs: 252 Attack, 252 Speed, 6 HP
    ~Stone Edge
    ~Close Combat
    ~Earthquake
    ~Flare Blitz

    Garchomp@Life orb
    Jolly Nature
    EVs: same as infernape
    ~swords dance
    ~EQ
    ~Dragon claw/outrage
    ~crunch/fire fang

    Gyarados@Leftovers
    -UNSURE-
    ~Taunt
    ~Dragon Dance
    ~EQ/Ice Fang
    ~Waterfall/Ice Fang
     
    All of the movesets suggested by Anti-Pop work. Though Fire blast is an option over Fire Fang and Crunch due to the annoying wall known as Skarmory.
     
    Oh yeah, forgot to mention that. I like tauntrados the best, but that's just me. Infernape can brutally murder some teams, so if you use it, take full advantage of its power at sweeping.
