Sawk's fantastic, but it doesn't provide the same utility other offensive Pokemon in S-rank do. Scolipede sets Spikes. Jynx puts shit to sleep and Tricks its checks. Musharna does a shitton. Samurott has priority to bypass offensive Pokemon to make up for its mediocre Speed. It can also prevent hazards like Sawk can thanks to Taunt and its great coverage. Kangaskhan is pretty much the catch-all revenge-killer that can beat almost every offensive Pokemon without locking into something because of Choice Scarf. Meanwhile, Sawk pretty much just hits really hard. That's great and all, but offensive teams rarely give it a chance to strike because of their faster Pokemon. Defensive teams carry at least two checks that keep it from posing too huge of a threat. Any good balanced team will carry a Fighting check. Sawk is great, but it's not nearly as good as any of the S-rank Pokemon.
