LEAD/SPINING CLAYDOL: Timid - Spe: 252 HP: 252 Def: 4 - Choice Scarf - Levitate
-Trick
-Rapid Spin
-Stealth Rock
-Ice Beam???
This Claydol is pretty weird, but imo pretty useful. It can outspeed any non-uber non-scarfed poke, and (correct me if I'm wrong) scarfed leads are pretty rare. If I predict an opening stealth rock I'll trick to give them the scarf. If they SR'd, they have to switch which gives me a free rapid spin. Unless of course they switch in to a ghost which leads to the final move slot. I at first thought EQ (I'd be jolly instead of timid) but most ghosts have levitate. So Im thinking Ice Beam or maybe Shadow Ball, I could use some help there.

FULL WALL SWALOT: Bold - SpD: 136 Hp: 252 Def: 120 - Black Sludge - Liquid Ooze
-Stockpile
-Swallow
-Toxic
-Sludge Bomb
This Swalot is pretty straight forward. Stockpile a few times and the defensive boosts should make it last a while, then I can toxic stall and swallow if health ever gets dangerously low. Sludge Bomb in case I want to attack. I chose Liquid Ooze over Sticky Hold cuz I figure if I can predict a trick or something I can switch him in and screw over my opponent with the black sludge.

SPECIAL WALL/WISH/STATUS HEALING/RAIN DANCING CLEFABLE: Calm - SpD: 252 Hp: 252 SpA: 4 - Leftovers - Magic Guard
-Heal Bell
-Wish
-Rain Dance
-???
This Clefable is all about support. Before I go ahead though, one question: do you need to baton pass wish to get it to heal another poke or can I use this Clefable to Wish heal other pokes? Aside from that the Rain Dance sets up both my sweepers: Kabutops swift swim and guarantees Mismagius' Thunder. Heal Bell if statuses start to get out of control. Need help with the last slot again. Should I go with something physical (obv Id need to change the nature and EVs) or special and if so, what?

PHYSICAL WALL TANGROWTH: Impish - Def: 252 Hp: 252 Att: 4 - Leftovers - Leaf Guard
-Reflect
-Synthesis
-???
-Power Whip
Again I dont know what do put in the last spot. Im thinking something statusy but Swalot already has toxic covered so... sleep powder, I hate the 75 accuracy though. Other than that, pretty straight forward.

PHYSICAL SWEEPING KABUTOPS: Adamant - Att: 252 Hp: 128 Spd: 128 - Life Orb - Swift Swim
-Stone Edge
-Waterfall
-X-Scissor
-Swords Dance
Yeah this thing should wreck with rain dance up.

;429;
SPECIAL SWEEPING MISMAGIUS: Modest - SpA: 252 Spd: 252 Hp: 4 - Life Orb - Levitate
-Shadow Ball
-Thunder
-Thunder Wave
-Psychic

So yeah, need help with Claydol, Clefable, and Tangrowths 4th slots.
