I think as a solo attacker , Gouging Fire seems...meh. No Swords Dance or Screech really hampers the damage output, but Sun + Protosynthesis do at least provide some boosts to alleviate the lack of the aforementioned moves.
As an attacker in online raids, however, with the proper support, this thing could go pretty stupid. Scope Lens is here as an alternate item because of a brand new move introduced into this DLC; Dragon Cheer. It raises the crit rate of your partner by one stage, but if it's a Dragon-type, it's raised by two stages. Scope Lens raises your own crit rate by one, so after Dragon Cheer, your moves will crit every time. We also have Alcremie's Decorate ability to give its allies +2 in Atk and SpA.
Seriously, though, with Alcremie, pretty much everything in the game just gets better as an attacker. It's nuts.
