If you're trying to go competitive, EV training them would help.


Samurott
Naughty Nature
~Waterfall
~Return
~Megahorn
~Ice Beam


Scrafty wants Adamant/Jolly Nature, and Dragon Dance instead of Rock Climb, and possibly Ice Punch or Rock Slide over Dragon Claw?


Accelgor wants Modest/Timid Nature. Impish belongs to Escavalier.
Focus Blast over Recover. You have Giga Drain for restoring HP anyway, and Accelgor is too frail for Recover.


Sigilyph wants Modest/Timid Nature.


Gigalith wants Adamant/Impish Nature, and Curse over either Rock Slide or Stone Edge.


Chandelure
Modest Nature
~Flamethrower
~Energy Ball
~Shadow Ball
~Calm Mind

Thanks for the help! Much appreciated! I've tried EV training before and my brain melted (metaphorically, but it's just as bad). So maybe I should give it a go again.

Only one of my team members was EV trained,actually(it isn't too hard to get enough points from the subway but even the abreviated process takes years).
Accelgor could use a move like Me first or Final Gambit,since its coverage isn't too good without one of them.


I occassionally use a scarfed Staraptor to take out any ugly opponents with Final Gambit before they can attack-Maybe your Accelgor could try something similar?

Ask if you need anything-happy to help :)

Edit:Accelgor's speed is really too good to be using a Choice Scarf,so that's optional.
I use a Choice Scarf to avoid those popular rain sweepers-to prevent them from outspeeding me(swiftswimmers
