    Threat List
    how the team does against the metagame

    Excadrill- Landorus can kill if balloon is out, also, Mienshao can break the balloon and hit with HJK.

    635.png
    Hydreigon- Mienshao can fake out then I just switch to Zone for Draco Meteor so Flamethrower doesn't kill. Volcorona can come in and kill if it uses anything else.

  • This isn't really much of a rate since it's pretty late where I am (hey, it's almost tomorrow) but you should use Giga Drain on Virizion. It's quite buffed out now, being nearly as strong as Energy Ball. You're also missing 4 EVs on several of your Pokemon but that doesn't really matter.

  • For one thing, Moxie and Bounce are illegal on Gyarados. You'll have to fill in the last slot with Stone Edge.

    Also, I'd use Giga Drain over Energy Ball on Virizion because it has better utility. Both moves don't have much of a power difference.

    Bounce isnt illegal with Moxie, Magikarp gets it in DW as a special move.

    Also Moxie is actually released lol.

    Which also means that Genosekt, Keldeo, and Ditto don't need to be on your threat list, right? Nothing else uses a DW ability as far as I can see...

  • Added Giga Drain over Energy Ball (Don't know why I didn't already have it there), and fixed where I said Moxie was unreleased. XD

    So any ideas on what I should do with Hitmontop? D:

    Okay, never knew about that. *facepalm*

    And as for Hitmontop, you'll have to do some tweaking. Its current set is meant to support with Rapid Spin. I think you can use Intimidate as its ability to help Hitmontop take physical attacks more easily. If you do, you'll have to replace Mach Punch with Sucker Punch (for a bit of risky priority) or Stone Edge (for coverage).
