Answer 1

Blaziken @ Wide Lens / Razor Claw
Ability: Speed Boost
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Blaze Kick
- Close Combat
- Bulk Up / Hone Claws
- Shadow Claw

Wide Lens for blaze kick and Razor Claw increased crit. Blaze Kick for fire STAB. Close Combat for fighting STAB is ok because you're are getting a speed boost every turn, so the defense drop doesn't matter that much. Bulk Up if you go with Wide Lens, Hone Claws for Razor Claw. Shadow Claw to deal super effective damage to psychic types.

Answer 2

A(hopefully) hard hitting physical sweeper that I thought of.

Mash Burndead's Chicken (Blaziken) @ Weakness Policy / Expert Belt / No item / Focus Band / Adrenaline Orb
Ability: Speed Boost
Tera Type: Flying / Fighting
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Adamant / Jolly Nature
- Blaze Kick
- Bulk Up
- Shadow Claw / Thunder Punch
- Brick Break / Acrobatics (Depending on Tera)

Okay, let's explain how this'll work. Speed Boost is for(well, duh) the speed boosts, EVs for max possible dmg, and the Held Item is whichever you find most useful in your preference. Bulk Up is the Attack and Defensive booster, while Blaze Kick is Fire STAB. Shadow Claw and Thunder Punch are Coverage against its weaknesses, depending on which one you'd rather have. Brick Break is its Fighting STAB that can break barriers, and I chose it because Close Combat is kinda risky in retrospect. Acrobatics is your Flying Attack, dealing massive damage to people without an Item, and boosted by Sharp Beak. Tera is whichever moves in the last column you choose. Look out, Trainers!

Comments

Acrobatics is only boosted if the Pokemon who uses it has no item.

Focus Band? Adrenaline Orb seems kinda pointless when you have Speed Boost.
Also why so many items choices to begin with?

---

What nature?

---

I think I'd go with Jolly or Adamant Nature with this one. Also, I put so many Items because all of them could be useful, depending on the situation.

---

Well, if you use Acrobatics, you can go without an Item, then. I thought Acrobatics did double dmg if the OPPONENT didn't have a held item, though...

Answer 3

Im new to pvp so please give me tips on where I'm wrong:
Blaziken @ Blazikenite
Ability: Speed boost
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HP
Adamant/Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Flare blitz
- Swords dance
- Close combat
Earthquake is good against other fire types, because of Mega Blaziken's insane attack stat.
Flare blitz is powerful, with the small cost of recoil damage.
Swords dance increases the already high attack stat.
Close combat is a very powerful STAB, the defense and sp. defense drop wont matter when you one-shot your enemies.
