best sweepers/spc sweepers in R/S Fr/LG

[SilverStreak]

What are the best /sweepers/ special sweepers/ tanks/ in ruby and sapphire/ fire red and leaf green, i thought this belonged here since Ruby and sapphire are out now and FR/LG arent yet.
I guess this would eliminate the purpose of having people ask constintly about what ones are good and what rank their under.

Pokemon that work best for being Sweepers are Pokemon with high Speed and high Attack for a Physical Sweeper, or high Special Attack for a Special Sweeper. Some Sweepers don't have the power or Speed to start off with so that's where Dragon Dance comes into play on Gyarados, Tyranitar, Dragonite, and Salamence. Special Sweepers sometimes setup Calm Mind so they can have more Special Attack and more Special Defence to sweep and be protected.

ah so any pokemon can be a good sweeper it just depends on the moveset and thier stat levels.
but who are the Best physical and special sweepers?

[andyizcool]

Physical Sweepers: Gyarados, Tyranitar, Dragonite, Salamence, Snorlax, Metagross, Aerodactyl, Zangoose.
Special Sweepers: Dragonite, Salamence, Starmie, Gardevoir, Jirachi, Latios, Latias, Houndoom, Kyogre, Mewtwo.

Those Pokemon come to mind and I'm sure there are many more.

You forget Sceptile. It has great speed and good Sp.Atk and it has a pretty awsome move pool.

FRLG no doubt there is a sepcial sweeper that stands out for me. Raikou. It is sickenly powerful with calm mind and can blow apart entire teams.

Physical there are a good deal of choices. Aerodactyl ca dliver some pain, while Zangoose and Heracross are excellent salac choices, and agiltiy metagross is no joke.
