After a long hiatus I've decided start a new team! I've only bred my shiny Lopunny so far so the rest are open to suggestions on Nature, EV Spread, and replacements.

;428; Lopunny @ Lopunnite
Jolly, Limber
252 Atk / 252 Spe
- Fake Out / Magic Coat / Substitute
- Return / Facade
- High Jump Kick / Low Kick
- Ice Punch / Thunder Punch / Baton Pass / Power-up Punch

Pretty standard. I kinda want to try Fake Out + Last Resort as well.

;350; Milotic @ Leftovers
Bold. Marvel Scale
248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SpD
- Recover
- Scald
- Ice Beam / Icy Wind
- Dragon Tail / Haze

Defensive wall that also can take Burns for Lopunny? TBH I haven't used Miltoic before.

;468; Togekiss @ Choice Scarf
Modest, Serene Grace
4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
- Dazzling Gleam / Thunder Wave
- Air Slash
- Fire Blast
- Trick

Special Sweeper that can also disrupt set-up / stall Pokemon.

:530: Excadrill @ Life Orb / Air Balloon / Focus Sash
Adamant, Mold Breaker
252 Atk / 252 Spe
- Earthquake
- Iron Head / Stealth Rock
- Rock Slide
- Rapid Spin

Spinner. Hazards maybe?

;452; Drapion @ Black Sludge / Scope Lens / Assault Vest
Jolly / Careful , Sniper / Battle Armor
- Poison Jab / Cross Poison / Poison Fang
- Knock Off / Night Slash
- Earthquake / Infestation
- Swords Dance/ Aqua Tail / Snarl

Italics = Assault Vest set. Not sure which variant to use. I could go all out offensive, critical hitter, or defensive. Makes a good defensive core with Weezing.

;110; Weezing @ Black Sludge
Bold, Levitate
252 HP / 252 Def
- Sludge Bomb
- Flamethrower
- Will-o-Wisp
- Pain-Split / Destiny Bond / Dark Pulse / TBolt

I've also considered Volcarona, Sableye, Mandibuzz, Omastar, Gengar, Gardevoir, Misdreavus, Jellicent as alternatives.

This team seems to be really unclear in terms of lots of slashes. You forgot that Lopunny can use Drain Punch, so I would put a slash on that too unless you feel it is too weak. Other than that, Fake out and return is almost always the best way to go. For Milotic, I can kind of see it working, however absorbing burns could be done by better pokemon, perhaps one with heal bell/ magic gaurd? Your togekiss can be seems solid. Excadrill has to make up its mind for the items. Each has a drawback, air balloon doesn't last very long, life orb is counterproductive with rapid spin, and focus sash breaks when you switch in to spin away hazards. I'd reduce your options by taking out air balloon. You already have 2 pokemon immune to ground. Don't use assault vest drapion. It looks cool, but it has none of the power the Swords Dance variant has, and has none of the support the defensive one has. Stick to black sludge and a defensive set.
This is all over the place, so sorry if any of this doesn't make any sense.

Thanks for the feedback, I was afraid no one would respond. Yeah, the slashes are pretty much all over the place b/c I'm still not sure what I want to do with the Pokemon. I'm just trying to use some unconventional sets.

Pretty standard. I kinda want to try Fake Out + Last Resort as well. just too many slashes. These moves kinda makes lopunny what it is. Personally i prefer the set consisting out of the moves slashed first because of it's utility and amazing coverage against mons (gliscor, ....) that would switch in.

;350; Milotic @ Leftovers
Bold. Marvel Scale
248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SpD
- Recover
- Scald
- Ice Beam
- Haze / dragon tail

Defensive wall that also can take Burns for Lopunny? TBH I haven't used Miltoic before. Milotic is a wall/tank. And thus recover and haze are nice (dragon tail has negative priority but if you like it better go ahead) scald is good for STAB + burn chance and ice beam for coverage.

Special Sweeper that can also disrupt set-up / stall Pokemon. (Thunder wave should never be on a scarf set.)

Adamant, Mold Breaker
252 Atk / 252 Spe
- Earthquake
- Iron Head / Stealth Rock
- Rock Slide
- Rapid Spin

Spinner. Hazards maybe? (Focus sash gets broken and air balloon may be good but if you're serious on SR on it then it's a no go)

;452; Drapion @ Black Sludge
Jolly / Careful , Sniper / Battle Armor
- Poison Jab / Cross Poison
- Knock Off
- Earthquake / Infestation
- Swords Dance

Italics = Assault Vest set. Not sure which variant to use. I could go all out offensive, critical hitter, or defensive. Makes a good defensive core with Weezing. (Just stick at defensive since you'll love those boosts. But i don't know anything else about drapion)

;110; Weezing @ Black Sludge
