Markaus Supermaus Focus Sash Guts
Quite a fun set to play with, though it works best with no Sandstorm, Hail, Spikes, Stealth Rocks or Toxic Spikes on the field. The idea is to sheer off 50% of their health, take a hit, then finish them off with Reversal. Sucker Punch the revenge killer for a smidgen of damage. Thunderwave is a nice option to hit Gengar that comes in as it predicts a Super Fang, while Endeavor can dent Skarmory where Reversal would not be quite as effective. If you think Counter woul do more than Super Fang on the first turn you take a hit, go with that.
Guts Toxic Orb Guts
The debate over Toxic Orb and Flame Orb depends on how long you think you can keep Raticate in at a time. If you think you can keep Raticate in longer than 2 turns (1/16 + 2/16 + 4/16) / (2/16 + 2/16 + 2/16) then opt for Flame Orb.
Facade gets STAB, and a boost from the Burn Raticate gets from the Flame Orb. Crunch hits Ghosts that resist Facade, and Reversal is for when the damage really starts adding up from the Burn and other damage Raticate recieves. U-Turn lets it get out while doing some damage, but Protect (reccomended by Dan Dan) will allow Raticate to Burn itself on the first turn to activate Guts without getting hit.
Rat of Choice Choice Band Guts
Pretty much the same as the Flame Orb set, with Choice Band instead, and no need to waste a turn Protecting. As you're not getting the instant Attack boost from being statused, you can use another Normal type move other than Facade. Double Edge easily 2hkos Swampert (Damage: 61.88% - 73.02%) when Guts is in play, and Return may do (Damage: 51.73% - 60.89%), depending on min/max damage and Swamperts Leftovers. Super Fang is there for bulky stuff like Skarm that try to come in straight up on you, Dark move is of preference for Ghosts and the like.
Pursuit or Sucker Punch work well over Crunch, Facade and Double Edge the same for Return.
