My second physical sweeper. Considering having this guy as my lead, due to taunt.

6

Trait: Steadfast
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Swords Dance

My third physical sweeper. Considering switching him out due to not really bringing that much new to the team. Any suggestions?

It looks pretty good to me. :3
I'll give ya a few changes though;

Terrakion: Choice items are becoming less popular this Gen, I really don't recommend them as much as a used to. I only use them if I plan on tricking them away sooner or later. He want's a Balloon, trust me. Excadrill would tear your team up otherwise. D; Jolly Natured, and get rid of X-Scissor for Swords Dance

Starmie: You want a timid nature, and Rapid Spin instead of Thunderbolt or Psychic. SR would tear up Volcanora. ;-;

Volcarona: Give him Leftovers or Lum berry instead. I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW MANY SWEEPS WERE RUINED BECAUSE OF A TOXIC WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED. But the Leftovers does help with the bulk he'll get from Quiver dance... Choose your weapon. And he wants HP ground or rock. Again, choose your weapon. ;3

Haxorus: Give Dragon Dance instead of Swords dance. Unless you wanna get revenge killed by Garchomp.

Gallade: Give him Shadow Sneak instead of Night Slash. A boosted Priority is always a good thing to have.


Hope that helps! <3

Well a few things I noticed..

You shouldn't lead with terrakion ever. He is used much batter as a SD or RP sweeper. I suggest you change the set to

Name Terrakion
Item: Air Balloon
Trait: Justified
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Stone Edge
- Close Combat | Holy Sword
- Swords Dance
- Rock Polish

Swords Dance to beat Stall, rock polish to beat offense. If you get them both up its practically gg.

You may want to try Ferrothorn in the lead spot, and whatever you do, you ALWAYS want to run power whip so you don't lose to waters, as gyro ball can barely do anything to them.

If you are gong tu use Volcorona, use HP ground or Rock in the last spot. You will also need spin support so stealth rock doesn't render it useless after a single swich in, so I using this starmie set.

Name: Starmie
Item: Life Orb
Trait: Natural Cure
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spe
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Thunderbolt | Psyshock | Psychic
- Surf | Hydro Pump | Scald
- Rapid Spin
- Recover

Haxorus wants

Name:Haxorous
Item: Expert Belt / Life Orb
Trait: Mold Breaker
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Taunt
- Dragon Dance
- Outrage
- Earthquake

DD lets you outspeed non scarf garchomp and latios, and taunt lets you shut down phazers and rival stat uppers
.

I suggest replacing Gallade with possibly Conkledurr. However, if you want a more..sweeperish....sweeper, you may also Look into SD Lucario, Infernape, or Meinshao. Whichever you decide on, just ask and I can provide the set.

Hope it helps.

Thunder Wave reduces your opponent's Speed, as you're already aware, weakening Gyro Ball's power. I know you don't want to use Power Whip, but it's the preferred option, and Ferrothorn is bulky enough to afford the occasional miss.

And Volcarona is better off with Timid so it can outspeed threats even before Quiver Dance.

Why is it preferred...? I'd honestly always run Thunder Wave, as it's almost always more beneficial to the team. And while Ferrothorn is "walled" by Waters... what are they going to do back to it? Toxic it? Burn it with Scald? Even then, Leech Seed recovery offputs the burn...
