Zygarde @ Groundium Z
Ability: Aura Break
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Thousand Arrows
- Extreme Speed
- Outrage
 
Articuno @ Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 4 HP/ 252 SP.ATK / 252 SPD
Modest Nature
- Ice Beam
- Agility
- Hail
- Blizzard

Guaranteed OHKO.

Actually, this set merely checks Zygarde. It can't come in on an Outrage and even if it does, Articuno will get KO'd before it has a chance to use Ice Beam, because Zygarde will outspeed. Another case is getting lucky with the damage rolls with Thousand Arrows and then securing a KO with Outrage, but that's unreliable and thus it's safer to just click Outrage. Anyway, time to counter this set:

Magearna @ Assault Vest
Ability: Soul-Heart
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Sassy Nature
- Fleur Cannon
- Iron Head
- Hidden Power Fire
- Volt Switch

Heatran @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 HP / 128 SpD / 128 Spe
Calm Nature
- Lava Plume
- Earth Power
- Stealth Rock
- Toxic

Magearna is no threat at all to Heatran, who can force it out with Lava Plume or set up rocks in its face.
