Agree with both Lucario and Tentacruel rising to A-.
I've been using Nasty Plot Lucario lately to very satisfying effect. Coverage is just a little barren with the current set I'm running, but the ability to almost guarantee that Mega Sharpedo (my pick for best cleaner in UU currently) will never sweep is really sweet, as is OHKOing several Pokemon at +2 that can live a +2 Close Combat and KO Luke in return.
Dingbat mostly summed up my feelings on offensive Tentacruel. I've lost count of all the lead Krookodiles I've OHKO'd on turn 1 and have won the game from virtually that alone. My only complaint with Tentacruel is that he doesn't have base 85 or 90 SpA because I've also lost count of the number of lead Swamperts that live LO Giga Drain with barely any HP.
