The Phantom Menace
A sweep team.
Intro
Well let's get started!
Absol (M) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Super Luck
EVs: 6 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Taunt
- Sucker Punch
- Superpower
- Night Slash
The point of Absol is to start on damaging the opponents Pokémon to help the Mixed Attack Dragonite get support from my others to leave Dragonite able to completely obliborate others teams and make them hide in the shadows. With the help of Absol this team becomes an offensive drill.

Dragonite (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Inner Focus
EVs: 56 Atk/202 Spd/252 SAtk
Mild nature (+SAtk, -Def)
- Draco Meteor
- Superpower
- Fire Blast
- Extremespeed
The ability Dragonite has to sweep is nearly higher than the sky but, I find without any Damage set up Dragonite finds itself in a pit too high to fly out of ... (which is the point of my Absol) But, if able to get my other Pokes to get large damage on the oponents team they find themself at the mercy of me and Dragonite...

Gyarados (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 6 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
- Waterfall
Gyarados is here to assist Dragonite in sweeping by taking down any threat that Dragonite can’t take by himself. Pokemon walls carrying Ice Beam are teared apart by Gyarados. Gyardos can also force a switch and get a Dragon Dance and he then can sweep himself or tear apart their team to the point where Dragonite can just plow through them...

Rhyperior (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Solid Rock
EVs: 132 HP/214 Atk/164 Spd
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Stone Edge
- Substitute
- Megahorn
- Earthquake
Rhyperior is fitted into this team by getting rid of all physical attacking threats because of its monster Defence while also having large enough attack to do major damage to all attacking threats. He also plays a big role in being a physical wall himself.... So like everyone on this team he is a HUGE link.
---
Vaporeon (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Water Absorb
EVs: 252 HP/6 Def/252 SDef
Bold nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Wish
- Surf
- Toxic
- Protect
Vaporeon is here to help Dragonite heal when his Life Orb starts taking a real toll. He can easilly get up the wish and pass it on or use it him self to Toxic Stall any walls that the Trio (Rhyperior, Gyarados, and Dragonite) Cant batter ram thereselves through. Vaporeon's another BIG link...

Gallade (M) @ Choice Band
Ability: Steadfast
EVs: 6 HP/252 Atk/252 Spd
Jolly nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
- Close Combat
- Stone Edge
- Psycho Cut
- Trick
Gallade..... Gallade.......... Galade.... He fits on this team because of his trick... He uses trick on things that would throw it of even if it was GOLD and covered in Pok'e Food.... (Vaporeon, Milotic, Suicune, Blissey e.t.c) So he screws up their cores and stratigies so Gallade can just go right through weaken up their team and leave it to the trio. Without Gallade this would just be a poor mash of walls and sweepers. So without Gallade this team just doesn't function right....

Conclusion
This team is great when it has momentum but when I find myself left with one Poke and they have 2 or 3 left I find myself stuck in a rut.... But when having the momentum with one Poke left I can just plow right out of the hole....
