Yea, true. I guess that move could save a lot of teams from baton passing opponents with ingrain and other shenanigans. Espeon walls most methods of stopping BP teams, but haze is a completely different story. There's not much to say here otherwise.
Also on a separate point, I've been testing something I would usually call unviable. I came up with it myself, so if this has been used before, my apologies.
Vendetta (Victini) @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Victory Star
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Final Gambit
- Blue Flare
- Hyper Beam
- Psychic
The EVs are designed to allow for full final gambit power, while out-speeding the whole tier except for priority and idiots running attacks on their deo-speed or ninjask (maybe not as idiotic on ninjask). I only really use final gambit but it can also act as a fire type which is something every AG team needs imo. It is great as a lead as it takes out their rock setter or whatever. If they have a deo-a, I wouldn't run as a lead because of the sash.
So far, my opinion is this; Having an Aron is probably a better option. It is terrible and requires a hard switch, it gets completely walled by hazards which is why i prefer to run as a lead. It can take out the majority of the meta, which is fine. But usually when one says this, they intend to keep their own pokemon alive.
I am
not saying this is viable. So please don't have a go at me for this. I was just testing.
Here's a match that went well:

However the opponent wasn't that great either.
What's your opinion?
