Crit Happens.
Just a suggestion. Anyway, looks good enough. Does 8 Speed ev's let it out speed anything?
Any other Scizor with no Speed investment, but that would fail if this isn't for PO where you can easily get 31 Speed IV.

This is where it gets interesting. The new team preview allows you to scout for counters of the next Pokemon, most notably Heatran, which Dugtrio is the main counter to thanks to Arena Trap and a 4x super effective STAB Earthquake. Once the counter is taken out by Dugtrio, he uses Memento, a move that allows the next pokemon to set up without fear of being killed.
I know, i asked if it would out speed anything if those ev's were in speed.I didnt put any speed in it, that's Special Defense
That bit aside however, this once again only deviates from the standard set via Memento, which is a horrible move. No one would stay in after taking Memento; it doesn't drop stats, it just forces switches. That's something the Pokemon you're sending in next should be able to do for itself anyway though. You'll get a lot more use out of something like Substitute or Hone Claws than you would Memento.
I'm not good with speed stuff, but after unburden activates do you need full speed to outrun anything. If not you could put some of that speed in HP.
Yea, you don't need all that speed. And when you do go around outspeeding most of the metagame, why do you have bullet punch? I would use either blaze kick or earthquake, since bullet punch really wouldn't be useful at all. EQ will help you get past Jirachi.
I would use Jolly since Raticate has Guts, but it also has Sucker Punch so Adamant can still be used for extra power
