What are all the Pokemon that are used for sweeping teams?

2 minute read

I like making teams in Pokemon showdown that follow certain themes like a team for every type, the Pokemon with the highest attack, etc. I wanted to make a team that consists of 6 of the best Pokemon for sweeping because why not. I do feel sorry for the innocent souls who just wanted to enjoy the game with their favorite Pokemon. You can give more than 6 Pokemon if you want btw.

I’ll assume this is Natdex AG.

A team of some of the most spectacular sweepers. Hope this helps!

Here’s a team of sweepers I created. I’ll assume it’s Gen 8 NatDex, like the previous answer.

Zeraora @ Choice BandVolt AbsorbAdamant252 At and Spe, 4 SpD-Play Rough-Plasma Fists-Close Combat-Outrage

Standard, but works well. If threatened by a Ground type, switch to…..

Hydreigon @ Life OrbModestLevitate252 SpA and Spe, 4 SpD-Surf-Dark Pulse-Draco Meteor-Nasty Plot

Again, pretty standard. Hydreigon has an amazing moveset, so any moves can be substituted with Flash Cannon, Flamethrower, Earth Power, or the like. If threatened by a Fairy, switch to…..

Aegislash @ Weakness PolicyAdamantStance Change252 At, 128 Def and SpD-King’s Shield-Swords Dance-Shadow Sneak-Iron Head

This one is a bit of a mixed bag. It also has Sacred Sword as another coverage option. If threatened by a Dark type, switch to….

Xerneas @ Power HerbTimidFairy Aura252 SpA and Spe, 4 SpD-Geomancy-Moonblast-Psyshock-Thunderbolt/Focus Blast

Xerneas with Geomancy and a Power Herb is still a beast. If threatened by a Steel type, switch to…..

Arcanine @ Lum BerryJollyFlash Fire252 At and Spe, 4 SpD-Flare Blitz-Outrage/Wild Charge-Extreme Speed-Morning Sun

This is one of my favorite sweepers. Flare Blitz and Wild Charge recoil can be healed with Morning Sun. If threatened by a Water type, switch to……

Ludicolo @ Damp RockModestSwift Swim252 SpA and Spe, 4 SpD-Rain Dance-Hydro Pump/Surf-Giga Drain-Ice Beam

So that’s it. The team has 3 Special sweepers and 3 Physical ones. I tried to have a major weakness of one sweeper be resisted by another one. Other than that, they’re pretty much each their own individual thing. Please comment any suggestions.
