i compiled a list of pokemon that can outrun bisharp under sticky web. the trouble is, most of them are like shitmons that you shouldn't even be using (ninjask, electrode and zebstrika comes to mind) and others are stuff that pretty much dies to +2 sucker punch (jolteon, aerodactyl, noivern, latias). choice scarf subverts sticky web but the common scarfers (chandelure, darmanitan, diggersby) are all eaten alive by sucker punch, save for heracross.
literally only two pokemon in the game cannot get 2hko'd by +2 bisharp iinw, and they're cobalion and mega aggron. i think this says quite a lot (also bisharp has the option of low kick to score an easy kill on cobalion)! megastoise is a good check, but it takes a hefty ton from sucker punch and without leftovers it's very easy to wear down megastoise with hazards, status and sandstorm. the fact is that bisharp + sticky web is very easy to win, takes some skill but pretty much shits over every team that can't clear hazards, and those that can, bisharp shits all over the defoggers (latias, crobat and empoleon are the most common afaik, latias dies immediately, crobat can't do anything to bisharp, and empoleon needs very heavy physical investment to survive +2 knock off), as well as most spinners (he wins all except hitmontop, who sucks, and megastoise, who can kill him back: but megastoise is very hazards-weak and easy to wear down. normal blastoise with something else other than blastoisinite just dies like... immediately.). claydol dies to knock off obviously, and is outrun because claydol never runs speed. cryo is OHKO'd by iron head, avalugg 2hko'd, the rest are barely even viable in UU =/
let's not even mention how he pretty much shits over people who run sticky web too! screw speed drops, have fun eating +2 sucker punches! tornadus can't even pull that off because of sticky web immunity lmfao
