    Aerodactyl
    item?????
    Ev's 252 Atk/252 Speed/4HP??? (Atk, Speed, HP, two of those I presume, Max Atk and spd???)
    Nature Jolly

    Stealth Rock
    Earthquake
    Ancient Power/Rock Slide/Iron Tail/Iron Head/Dragon Claw
    Thunder Fang/Crunch/Roar/Aerial Ace/Rock Polish

    I really have no idea for its last two moves, theres alot of possibilities I guess.

    OR For Ev's I figured maxing out speed is good for a Stealth Rocker, Attack will help it Sweep but Hp is always good for staying power. (Second option)

    200 Speed/156 atk/152 Speed, I don't really like it.

    All suggestions will help.

    I'm guessing you need Emerald to get Double Edge, which I don't have so I need another move. And I'm looking to use him as a Stealth Rocker.

    Any more suggestions.

    How about this.

    Stone Edge/Rock Slide (probabley Rock slide because I'm an accuracy freak.)
    Earthquake
    Stealth Rock
    Ice Fang/Roar/Aerial Ace

    Ice Fang will give him coverage over 11 types, Roar helps out with Stealth Rock obviously and Aerial Ace he gets STAB from and brings his total type coverage to 10 types. (Dragon is the only thing that Ice Fang covers that Aerial Ace wouldn't)

    Aerodactyl
    Item : Focus Sash
    Moves:
    Stone Edge/Rock Slide
    Earthquake
    Stealth Rock
    Thunder Fang (Skarmory can be a pain :P)

    Those are my suggestions
     
    Only physical or Special Tanks need to be running off of Stealth Rock. Not sweepers or Pokemon with poor defenses.

    Now, about Aero's Moveset:

    Aerodactyl @ Life Orb
    Ability: Pressure
    EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
    Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
    - Earthquake
    - Stone Edge
    - Ice Fang
    - Aerial Ace / Wing Attack
    Ice Fang is good for punishing Garchomp and Gliscor. Everything else speaks for itself.

    And on a minor note, a STABed Stone Edge does more to Skarmory than a SE Thunder Fang. So no point in that.
     
    It works a hell of a lot better than with Aerdactyl...
     
    Well I was planning on using Aerodactyl to start for me, and have him open up with Stealth Rock. If I'm not using him as a stealth rocker I think I can sneak some speed EV's into HP, or run him as an Adamant nature (with full speed EV's)
