As I said, due to Sceptile being fast before Blaziken's Speed Boost, It will make the first move and a 4x weakness is a problem for Sceptile. Even if Swampert were to use protect, it would eventually fail, and he will be his by a STAB move doing 4x damage, and taking him out, and then get killed by Blaziken

There is the situation where Sceptile goes down before defeating Swampert, and manages to take down Blaziken quickly. That is the only real possible case I can see Swampert winning. The next possible outcome is what would happen if the battle is drawn out. In that case Blaziken would be to quick and would just keep interuption Swampert before he gets the chance to even attack again.

If it comes down to Sceptile and Swampert...NEITHER of Swampert's tyes will do much at all, and would have to relly on normal moves and Hammer Arm...and that would slow him down EVEN MORE! In this case Swampert gets owned, in both a quick, and drawn out fight.

If it comes down to Sceptile and Blaziken, Sceptile has little to nothing he could do to take down Blaziken quick, and would be taken out by Blaziken. If Sceptile can make it last a while, then Blaziken will be way to fast to hit, and he gets blitzed.

In the possible situations, there is 1 way for Swampert to win, 2 ways for Sceptile, and 3 ways for Blaziken. I tried to analize the possible ways, and Sceptile going down first, and Swampert taking down Blaziken quickly is the only way I see him winning. In Blaziken can survive for a bit, and drag it out, the Speed Boost will moke him much to fast for Swampert.
