"The Overlooked"

These are pokemon that can perform a role similar to another pokemon but are overlooked. I guess this is kind of a BL/UU Team So far I have:

Gardevoir@Wise Glasses
Timid Nature
-Calm Mind
-Psychic
-Focus Blast
-Will-O-Wisp

Good Special Sweeper that can actually take a hit, unlike Alakazam. Calm Mind up then Psychic for STAB, Focus Blast for Pesky Darks and Rhyperior, WOW to help weak Defense. I'm using Timid because it has low speed for this role and I have a shiny one.

Mismagius@Leftovers/Colbur Berry
Timid Nature
-Calm Mind
-Shadow Ball
-Thunderbolt
-Energy Ball
Another good Special Sweeper. Calm Mind on it's resistances or a switch. Sweep with the others.

Unfortunately, here I hit a road block. Anyone else have suggestions?
 
Gardevoir @Leftovers
Timid Nature
-Calm Mind
-Psychic
-Thunderbolt
-Will-o-Wisp/Thunder Wave/Hypnosis

Mismagius @Leftovers/Life Orb
Modest/Timid Nature
-Calm Mind
-Shadow Ball
-Thunderbolt
-Energy Ball

Add some Physical Sweepers and a Tank (if you want one) and I'll help you make movesets for them. If you want to have some fun, I've found Shuckle a very fun Pokemon to use.

Shuckle @Leftovers
Relaxed Nature
-Sandstorm
-Toxic
-Gyro Ball
-Wrap/Encore/Rest
-----------------------------------------------
This moveset is an idea of Shinobi Pachirisu's that also looks like fun.

Shuckle @Leftovers
Relaxed Nature
-Power Trick
-Gyro Ball
-Gastro Acid/Toxic/Rest
-Gastro Acid/Toxic/Rest

Only use this against Special Sweepers though.

^thanks :D, nice to know someone likes my idea!

I think blaziken also suits this team(overlooked for Infernape)

Blaziken
Adamant
Flare Blitz
Sky Uppercut
Stone Edge
Swords Dance
 
Sceptile- I'm not a big Shuckle guy, so I will have to pass.

Shinobi Pachirisu- How could I forget Blaziken? I'm going to have to go for him.

So, something like this:
Blaziken@Life Orb
Adamant Nature
-Flare Blitz
-Sky Uppercut
-Stone Edge
-Swords Dance
 
I just thought of another: flygon(overlooked for garchomp)...sadly i dont know a set(because hes overlooked for garchomp).

sadly, i can only think of these things w/ pkmn that have the same types like:
Vileplume and victreebell vs. Roserade
Gallade vs. medicham(whos more popular now?)
Quagsire/Whiscash/Gastrodon vs. Swampert
Pinsir vs. heracross
Scyther vs. ninjask(whos more popular here too?)
see? all similar types.....think about these i guess....
 
A moveset for Flygon looks like this:

Flygon @Choice Band/Scarf
Adamant/Jolly Nature
-Dragon Claw
-Earthquake
-Stone Edge
-Crunch

Hmm... Is Bronzong OU now? I spose he could be used as a tank as well. I wouldn't think you would particularly want a staller/annoyer, so might as well just recommend sweepers and tanks.

Also, who's UU/BL out of Pidgeot/Dodrio/Swellow/Fearow/Staraptor in terms of physical sweeping? My guess would be that Staraptor is OU now.
