Ninjask @ Focus SashTrait: Speed BoostEVs: 252 Atk, 4 Def, 252 SpdJolly Nature

The above set works well as a Baton Passing lead and despite being in NU it is one of the most effective Baton Passers there is. Set up a Swords Dance, Protect to get your Speed even higher, and then Baton Pass out to a physical sweeper.

Gliscor @ Toxic OrbTrait: Poison HealEVs: 252 HP, 44 Def, 208 SpdImpish Nature

Pretty straight forward BP Gliscor, not much explanation needed.

Smeargle @ Focus SashTrait: Own TempoEVs: 252 HP, 4 Def, 252 SpdTimid Nature

Put the opponent to sleep and ShashPass to a sweeper of your choice.

Gorebyss @ Focus SashTrait: Swift SwimEVs: 4 HP, 252 SAtk, 252 SpdTimid Nature

Also works well in Ubers, mind that this set is illegal on rain teams in OU.

Mew @ LeftoversTrait: SynchronizeEVs: 252 HP, 4 Def, 252 SpdTimid/Jolly Nature

I put Nasty Plot/Swords Dance but really you can use any boosting move there, depending on whether you want to Baton Pass Special or Physical boosts.
