OU Kabutops?
 
I would have posted this in the moveset forum had I wanted a full set. DO NOT give me EVs, moves and such. I'm trying to figure those out myself these days.

Now, I plan on running a Kabutops in OU, and what are the most common threats, and the most common grass-type/grass move user? As well, does Kabutops get a Physical water STAB, better than Waterfall?

No, STAB Waterfall is the best he gets.

Pretty much any Special Sweeper with Grass Knot can OHKO him, it's a commonly used type because of Swampert (and others of course), Common Counters include Celebi, Tangrowth, Swampert and Torterra.

Alrighty. So, I assume he gets X-Scissor, I'll give him that just in case he gets somehow stuck against a GKer. And I'll give him Focus Sash, so he can at least do well against them, or Life Orb, if it can possibly OHKO any of those threats.

Alrighty, this thread should now be closed.

Thread closed at author's request. However questions such as these should be asked in Strategies and Movesets in future.
