Physical Sweeper Weezing (Levitate)

Life Orb boosts the power of Weezing's damaging moves by 1.3x but it then loses 1/10 its max HP immediately after the attack. With Levitate, Weezing is immune to ground; gravity/ingrain/smack down/iron ball nullify it.
♦ Return is a physical 0-base power Normal-type move (max 102 power at maximum happiness).
♦ Assurance is a physical 50-base power Dark-type move (power doubles if target was damaged this turn).
♦ Payback is a physical 50-base power Dark-type move (power doubles if your Weezing moves after the target).
♦ Rollout is a physical 30-base power Rock-type move (power doubles with each hit. repeats for 5 turns).
♦ Gyro Ball is a physical 0-base power Steel-type move (more power the slower your Weezing than the target).
