best sweeper in pokemon shwdown

There are a lot of possibilities, but for me it's cloyster. People are dragon fanatics, so a shell smash then icicile spear will make quick work of them. It also has a good ability skill link, and good coverage. It's my spearhead into anything goes and ou, AND IT'S GREAT THAT IT'S UU, BECAUSE IF EVERYONE KNEW AOUT CLOYSTER'S TRUE POWER AS A SWEEPER, THE GAME WOULD BE MUCH MORE DIFFICULT.

Cloyster is good and severely underrated. Actually, I might do it after I finish Druddigon's analysis.

For me it's Tail Glow Manaphy and SD Diggersby. The former has excellent mixed bulk and the ability to steamroll through balance teams at +3, and it can even go to +6 against stall teams. Diggersby is very good against offense since +2 Quick Attack can OHKO stuff like Keldeo after a bit of prior damage.

Manaphy is the best sweeper for use against slow teams. It's really no contest.

Against fast teams I consider Excadrill in sand, Talonflame, Mega Lopunny, and Serperior to be the best sweepers.

Well I was going to come in here and post something interesting, but Wolf already covered my thoughts exactly.
