Pursuit is pretty much required on Heracross becauseRaziel X said:
Enemy sends in Dusknoir!
Player withdraws Dragonite!
Player sends in Heracross!
Enemy Dusknoir used Will-o-Wisp!
Heracross was burned!
***1.5x Attack boost from Guts due to the burn***
Enemy: o crap
Enemy withdraws Dusknoir...
Heracross used Pursuit!!
***Hits for 56% Damage***
Then Dusknoir switches
Enemy: Oh no!!!

No it doesn't. What you did was give Pursiut usefulness to two situations. Passers & U-Turners, who aren't that common.
SWITCHERS, which people will undoubtedly do when Heracross comes out, is where Pursuit comes in handy.

Does Pursuit hit Pokemon using Baton Pass/U-Turn?
ON TOPIC:That is a very solid team.

Then let me try say this then, Those who SWITCH constantly... just Switch to lose Status Effects, use Pursuit....
There, That should be better...

???
What? I don't quite get what you're saying. Are you saying Pursuit is better?
You know as well as I do that switching is a major part of the compettitive field. People will switch to suitable couters, especially on Heracross. He & Weavile are the best Pursuit users.

All I'm saying is, Use pursuit against Switchers, Passers, and U-turners... Simple and to the point... If you don't come across them, Night Slash is a better choice...

No, thats what I'm saying. Baton Passers & U-Turners are a TYPE of pokemon. Not even ALL that popular. Night Shade is more situstional.
Switcher, well, thats EVERYBODY. EVERYONE who plays in compettitive play switches. Not even just on Heracross. When there's a mismatch, people will switch pokemon to a suitable counter. Pursuit hits everyone. You speak as if Switchers are a specific pokemon, & that confused me.
Switching isn't a type of pokemon, its a basic playing style, that Pursuit takes advantage of.

The way you said it is correct.. Switchers applies to everyone, Passers and U-Turners are for specific Pokemon, the way you said it is correct....
But, don't count U-Turners out just yet, Someone posted a week ago about a U-Turner team... (And that wasn't me!!)

Exactly, although you are proving my point on just how important Pursuit is.
As said in my previous post, switching is a playing style, not a particular poke, hence why Pursuit is important on Hera. Also, Night Shade IS an option.

And use pursuit. Seitch into dusknoir / Zam / Gengar and absorb a hit with some prediction. OMG choice scarf FTW. They're gonna switch! OH! Pursuit for the OHKO. How I love pursuit!

lol wut
I'm not too confident that's the case, but regardless, physical sweeper Vire pwns special sweep, EVERY day of the week. the only special attack of any use on it is Tbolt for skarm.
