What do you guys feel about
? With less rain running its day, talonflame and flying friends becoming more common he can actually wreck a lot of top tier pokemon. Depending on the set and ev spread he is capable to wall;
Physically Defensive evs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def;
Talonflame, Charizard X, Dragonite, Excadrill, Aegislash, Mega Pinsir, and physical Genesect.
He has many options and can play as a tank, physical attacker, assault vest, or like above Physically Defensive. It is hard to outright stop him because he has superb coverage options to get pass bulky grass types and Gliscor and Lando T. His main moves alone make him threaten common defogers like Tyrantitar; which should be A+.The only pokemon I think that beat him 1v1 no matter what is Rotom W, Keldeo, Manaphy, Gyrados, Roserade, Mega CharY, and Mega Venusaur. I feel
B- or
C+ may be fitting.

I'm only using the Physical Attacker set.
Wish passers are highly needed on this one but if you keep him out of grass and water types and strong special sweepers, your all good.
