The Sub Seeder
Nature: Adamant/Jolly
Item: Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
EVs:44 HP / 252 Atk / 212 Spe
Moves:
Leech Seed
Substitute
Focus Punch
Spore/Seed Bomb

The basic Sub Seeder set, the idea is to seed something, set up a sub, and recover HP while you're sapping theirs, you can also fire away Focus Punch while behind the sub, since you don't have to fear flinching.

The Spore Sub Puncher
Nature: Adamant/Jolly
Item: Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal/Effect Spore
EVs:44 HP / 252 Atk / 212 Spe
Move Set:
Spore
Substitute
Focus Punch
Seed Bomb/Stone Edge/Thunder Punch/Facade


This set utilizes Spore, to almost assure you get a sub up, afterwards you can proceed to pummel you're opponent with Focus Punch. The last move is really up to you. Seed Bomb is a second STAB and destroys Swampert and takes a chunk out of Donphan, Stone Edge handles the flying types you will inevitably draw, and takes a chunk out of Bulky Gyarados, Thunder Punch (is only viable with effect spore), will destroy Gyarados and heard other flyers, and Facade feeds of the self Toxic infliction with the poison heal ability.

Anti-Starter
Nature:Adamant/Jolly
Item: Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
EVs:236 HP / 252 Atk / 20 Spe
Move Set:
Spore
Protect
Seed Bomb
Mach Punch

This set is good for scouting in early battle. Spore is for getting an early sleep, Protect for scouting choice items, Seed Bomb for dispersing the leading Swampert, and Mach Punch for destroying Weavile it also takes a nice chunk out of Tyranitar.

Nature:Adamant/Jolly
Item: Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
EVs: 44 HP / 252 Atk / 212 Spe
Spore
Stun Spore
Focus Punch

So, if you activate the sleep clause don't fret, you'll still be able to cripple pokemon with paralysis in this set. Focus punch, and Seed Bomb for STAB, and Stone Edge is for Flyers.

Is Breloom fast enough to use Stone Edge before a flyer OHKOs him?

Not normally for most flyers. When I used my breloom, I always baton passed it speed, which made outspeeding flyers more realistic.

It's mostly going to require prediction to use properly.

Speed doesn't matter if you're hiding behind a sub, other than that it's all about prediction.

It's mostly going to require prediction to use properly.

Yep, since some of the most common switching's are flying types *coughGyaradoscough*>.>
