IDK about unbeatable. Azumarill can still be dealt with by Grass or Electric attacks. Klefki or Mawile can be dealt with by Fire attacks. Granbull, and other pure Fairy-types, don't have massive HP pools, so can be dealt with in a few attacks. Florges is basically a Fairy version of Alakazam; albeit with better stats, but still has a low Defense.
I am currently brewing up a Smeargle to troll people with. It has King's Shield and Extremespeed, but I'm still not sure what I am going to do with the last two moves. Maybe Belly Drum and some kind of tail attack. I was thinking of giving it moves to be exactly like Aegislash, but not sure how effective it would be (if at all). Maybe Iron Tail? Steel-type seems to be a good coverage move lately.
Something more Club-related: I have a shiny Steelix now! Caught an Onix in the safari and trade-evolved it into Steelix. Has Sturdy and a Lonely nature, so I'll likely train it to be a UU/casual sweeper.
Nice!! One of my favorite shinies!
For Smeargle, if you're going for a physical Steel attack, Iron Head would be my choice. It's the most reliable, and the 30% chance to make the opponent flinch doesn't hurt either. Iron Tail is more powerful, but after the 4x attack boost from Belly Drum Iron Head will probably be enough to OHKO most opponents. If Iron Tail misses it could ruin your sweep and leave you open for attack.
And actually, that brings me to a new topic...
