What are some good pokemon that can snipe the bench? A lot of the times people use supporting pokemon on the bench or throw out a meat shield while they power up their main attackers on the bench, so are there any pokemon that can take the bench out?
 
Magmortar Lv.X, Tangrowth (w/ Sceptile), Blaziken, Gardevoir Lv.X, Rayquaza EX d, and Empoleon Lv.X. There are Spreaders, but they aren't the same as snipers.
 
Starmie LA. for :psychic: it hits one of your opponent's pokemon with a poke-power or poke-body for 50 damage. Probably the most efficient sniper around.
 
the new deoxys speed form can snipe for 30 for :colorless:colorless and it has free retreat so its a pretty good sniper that can go in most decks

can hit the bench. ()= switch the defending and then hit
 
Most of them can snipe btw. Roserade can do 30 dmg to a bench pokemon, Skuntank too for example.
What is "sniping" for you? A pokemon, which does 40dmg/50dmg/60/70/ 80dmg to a bench pokemon? A pokemon, which OHKO a bench pokemon?
It depends on what "sniping"means for you.

But you are right. Some are dmg spreaders like froslass or abomasnow.
 
Sniping = One shot kills
Spreading = damageing without the knockout
Understand spreading can kill but generally it is a slow death
ie Magmortar LvX hits for 100 so it can one shot Basics, most stage 1's some stage 2
Glaceon LvX = spreads 20 to each benched. It may take 3 to 6 hits to knock a pokemon out.

it's also that, but beside that, when you snipe you hit 1 or 2 poke, when you spread you damage the whole bench (a sniper can be a spreader as well: empoleon md for example)

EDIT: it's almost what you said but not quite Aggy&Co...
