Super Fang can put Pokemon in range of Blaze Kick/High Jump Kick. Taunt can stop status. Blaze Kick is strong fire STAB. High Jump Kick is super strong STAB, but U-turn can be used for pivoting.
Finally HA Scorbunny is out.
I didn’t include any fire STAB since it has Libero, that’s the only reason. Choice Band is for the boost in power, and Jolly is for the boost in speed. The EVs allow it to survive, and Libero makes it so that it’ll always get STAB. Quick Attack is more reliable priority than Sucker Punch, HJK is for Rock types, Gunk Shot is coverage, and U-Turn is in case you need to get out of a situation, and it works nicely with the Choice Band.
U-turn to say “Adios!” to Water and Ground types. High Jump Kick to TKO annoying Rock types. Flame Charge to up speed. Gunk Shot for ultimate STAB

-Blaze Kick-Hi Jump Kick-Headbutt-U-Turn
Blaze Kick is, in my opinion, Scorbunny’s best STAB option (it’s physical but doesn’t deal recoil to an already frail mon), and has the added bonus of a boosted crit rate. Hi Jump Kick is probably his best move overall, 130 power, given STAB by Libero. Headbutt, considering that there’s a good chance of you outspeeding your opponent, is a nice flinch chance. U-Turn is a nice option for pivoting and scouting. Libero is self-explanatory. As are the EVs. I took Adamant over Jolly because an OHKO is what Scorbunny needs the most, not more speed on a speedy mon. The Wide Lens is there to fix the accuracy problems of Blaze and Hi Jump kicks, and to prevent crash damage.
Double Dance Scorbunny, or pseudo Hawlucha. Agility doubles speed to out-speed basically everything in the tier bar priority attacks. Work Up boosts attack. High Jump Kick is Scorbunny’s strongest physical attack that is STAB due to Libero. Acrobatics doubles in power after the Berry Juice is consumed and gets STAB due to Libero.
Scorbunny @ Wide LensAbility: LiberoEVs: 170 HP / 170 Atk / 170 SpeJolly Nature- Blaze Kick- Gunk Shot- High Jump Kick- Bounce
The Moves:Blaze Kick is the strongest physical move that Scorbunny can know, combined with Libero STAB makes it super strong. Gunk Shot, combined with Libero STAB, is great for coverage. High Jump Kick is strong with Libero STAB, and also turns Scorbunny into a Fighting type, resisting Rock type moves, which Fire type Scorbunny would be weak to. Bounce has STAB, and makes Scorbunny immune to Ground type moves.
The Item:The Wide Lens makes moves 10% more accurate than normal, which iscrucialfor this moveset to work. Blaze Kick goes from 90% to 99%, Gunk Shot goes from 80% to 88%, High Jump Kick goes from 90% to 99%, which is insane for a Libero Scorbunny, and Bounce goes from 85% to 93.5%.
As you can see, this benefits Scorbunny so much, combined with Libero, makes it a great Physical sweeper in LC.
Hope I helped! :D
