Bunnelby @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Huge Power
Level: 5
EVs: 220 Spd / 228 Atk / 60 SDef
Jolly Nature
- Return
- Earthquake
- Quick Attack
- U-turn

The intended sweeper, although most of the time, it doesn't get to that point. Standard Bunnelby set, I assume; Return for STAB, Earthquake for beating Steels, Quick Attack for prio, and U-Turn for getting away from predicted Ghosts.

Timburr @ Eviolite
Ability: Guts
Level: 5
EVs: 196 Atk / 156 SDef / 156 Def
Adamant Nature
- Drain Punch
- Knock Off
- Mach Punch
- Bulk Up

Standard Timburr, to take pressure off of Bunnelby in getting rid of Steels and Rocks fairly easily. I went Bulk Up > Poison Jab to capitalize on switches and nab a very helpful +1 Attack, because that can be the difference between a Mach Punch KOing or not.

Fletchling
Ability: Gale Wings
Level: 5
EVs: 196 Atk / 180 Spd / 80 HP / 52 SDef
Serious Nature
- Acrobatics
- Swords Dance
- U-turn
- Roost

BUNNELBY NORMAL TYPE. FIGHTING TYPE BAD. FIGHTING TYPES WITH MACH PUNCH EVEN MORE BAD. FLETCHLING KILL SO MACH PUNCH DOESN'T OHKO BUNNELBY.

Houndour @ Eviolite
Ability: Flash Fire
Level: 5
EVs: 196 Atk / 196 SDef / 40 SAtk / 76 HP
Lonely Nature
- Sucker Punch
- Pursuit
- Flamethrower
- Crunch

If STAB Return from Bunnelby is a nuclear bomb, then Ghost types are, like, the Geneva Convention. SpD Evio Houndour is still my best answer to Ghsots since I discovered it, so ON EVERY TEAM IT GOES.

Misdreavus @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Levitate
Level: 5
EVs: 236 Spd / 236 SAtk / 36 SDef
Timid Nature
- Shadow Ball
- Dazzling Gleam
- Thunderbolt
- Trick

SturdyJuiceSmashers are a problem, but Dwebble lacks priority, so I can pick it off with a mixture of Pawniard, Timburr, and Houndour. However, Tirtuoga packs Aqua Jet. However, even after a Shell Smash, Scarf Missy outspeeds. And there's nothing more fun than Tricking a Scarf onto them, and then they use Shell Smash. Not a common occurrence, but it tends to garner forfeits.

Pawniard @ Eviolite
Ability: Defiant
Level: 5
EVs: 236 Atk / 116 SDef / 76 Def / 80 HP
Adamant Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Knock Off
- Sucker Punch
- Iron Head

I use Scarf Pawniard too much.
I needed an SR setter.
I wanted STAB Knock Off.
Priority would be cool to have.
THIS SET FUFILLS ALL OF MY GREATEST DREAMS ON ONE PROBABLY WEIRD SET. But, eh, it gets the job done. Sometimes.
