Ill update below here in this post with the choices i like the most so it can be easier for me to choose, Thx for reading and hope u help me out =)

Current Options
-Houndoom
-Gardevoir

 

[Romke]

what about togekiss, yanmega, alakazam?

 

[Twilight Glimmer]

Well, Alakazam has the higest Special Attack of the normal Pokemon, so it'll be a godd choice. Gardevoir hasn't an excellent movepool, buts is not so bad. If you want my personal opinion, PorygonZ is quite nice too.

I find em a bit way too over used in my opinion, i try to use pokemon less frequently used and ive being thinking for loooong time >.> urg its a pain to who to choose from

Nobile intention from you! Then, why you don't try Xatu? It isn't so bad, after all. If not, find the Pokemon do you like the most and use them...Simple but enjoyable.

thats where the problem apears, some which i like are over used or pre evolved lol. Haunter is a fave but hes pre evolved and the rest that i like are physical based lol, i cant beliave i have a problem who to chose out or around 200 final evolutions

 

[Kohdok]

I like Lanturn and Houndoom, personally. Houndoom can set up a Nasty Plot and Lanturn is the best anti bulky water type out there. I know it's listed as "UU", but it's listed as Anti-Bulk in almost EVERY WATER-TYPE POTW i've seen.

Azelf also has Nasty-Plotability.

a problem apears i like houndoom but he shares dark type with my sharpedo so it increases my weakneses =/ check my other topic to see what im talking about i try to get not frequently used yet different tipe pokemon

 

[Twilight Glimmer]

You do? Use different type of Pokemon and attack is a good strategy, I suppose. Oh, well, everyone has his one....

However, what about Shiftry? Not so bad too.

 

[Kohdok]

You could use a good psychic, though.

There's always the poorly limited Exeggutor or Roserade, Froslass, or Salamence (Seldom used as a Special sweeper)

OMG! You like Lantern and Houndoom too! Me Too! Anyway, since those are the two i'm suggesting, here are soem sets:

Lantern
Modest
-Surf
-Ice Beam
-Thunderbolt
-Thunder Wave

Lantern kills everything, and is one of few pokemon whicjhh resists the BeamBolt stradegy, as long as it has Volt Absorb. It can also kill evry living water type that isn't immune to elctric with STAB'd Thunderbolts, and resists most things they can throw bag at them.


Houndoom
Modest / Timid
-Flamethrower
-Dark Pulse
-Nasty Plot
-Hidden Power [Fight] / Will-o-Wisp

This guy, i love him <3


I'm also gonna suggest some other Speciaal Sweepers, too


Roserade
Modest / Timid
-Energy Ball
-Sludge Bomb
-Sleep Powder / Stun Spore
-Shadow Ball / Extrasensory / Hidden Power [Fire / Ice / Ground] / Leaf Storm

Roserade resently moved up to the OU tier, yay. Well, this rose has good potential and is good in general, so erm, yeah

 

[erreip199]

Shiftry is a dark type too =P and yeah those good sets of attacks but it deals with my other types my sharpedo shares em with houndoom and lanturn, as for Roserade i do find it OU also and it doesnt fit my likings either

I shall Re re re re re check the pokedex for more strong options, so far ill add houndoom to my list of maybe add

 

[Kohdok]

Camerupt can special sweep with Flamethrower and Earth Power.

 

[Miltonic]

how about Porygon and Gengar, maybe even Gardevoir.

 

[Shine]

There's always the poorly limited Exeggutor or Roserade, Froslass, or Salamence (Seldom used as a Special sweeper)

Specsmence is like one of the most frequently seen Pokemon, and one of the best Mence set.

 

[Raden Surya]

Azelf is currently the best non-uber Special Sweeper so far.
Just choose whichever you want from these posts then we can give the moveset.

 

[erreip199]

umm interesting so far im thinking between
-Gengar
-Jolteon
-Porygon z
-Houndoom
-Gardevoir
-Magnezone
-Ampharos

Im not totally sure about em though this is haaard hahaha and no legendarys =P i find em cheap

Didn't you say you didn't want OU Pokemon. Well, maybe you don't know it, but all Poke's that I made fat are OU. Soooooo... But, for a Special Sweeper, how would you like this?

Empoleon@Leftovers
Modest, 252 Sp.Atk, 252 Spd, 4 Atk

Surf
Ice Beam
Flash Cannon
Aqua Jet/

The first three are pretty standard. Aqua Jet to pick of dudes who hung onto Focus Sash and are too fast. 4 Atk EV's can make the diffrence for Aqua Jet, but if you're not in desperate need of it, go with 4 HP.

 

[erreip199]

Gee all those are way over used >.> urg... well empoleon shares types with my sharpedo and my scizor... and meaning that they are not OU it means they are actually weaker and couldnt stand actual OU teams?

 

[Empoleon Bonaparte]

That's not true. I've seen NU teams owning Ubers. But, maybe, just to be safe, you could put one or two OU Poke's in your team.
