Is Excadrill an effective sweeper?

Of course its an effective in a Sandstorm with the ability Sand Rush(i think that’s what its callled) That ability with double its Speed making It a beast. And add Swords Dance on top of that while Holding a Baloon for an item, it can be unbearable. Definately add a Hippowdon/Tyranitar in your party to get a Sandstorm going. A good Moveset would Be:

Swords Dance-The Base Power of Attack being Doubled, you need thisEarthquake-the greatest STAB a Ground type can haveX-Scissor-CoverageRock Slide-Fire Types

Hope this helps…

Excadrill is very powerful in a Sand Team,and also powerful out of it with a Choice Scarf. It’s full potential is in the Sand,as it can out-speed many fast Pokemon,and hit them with a high base attack of 135. You can give it a Balloon,a Choice Band and a Life Orb.A good move-set would be:Earthquake:STABX-Scissor/Aerial Ace/Shadow Claw:CoverageRock Slide:CoverageSwords Dance:It doubles it’s high attack.

I would think so. It has some powerful physical moves.If its a physical sweeper, here’s a moveset.Drill Run(stab)Sandstorm(a little help)Aerial Ace(coverage)Fissure(its a beast move)
