With Mega Heracross as popular as it is, anybody think regular scarf Heracross might be a bit more viable now? I'm noticing it pairs well with Mega Gyarados for resisting Bug, Fighting and Grass moves. The mindgames would be pretty decent, and Guts Heracross can take advantage of pokemon that try to burn Gyarados like Rotom-W and then wreck havoc with a fast and boosted Close Combat or Megahorn. With Heracross as a status safety insurance, this could allow Gyarados to get better coverage and forgo Taunt or Substitute. Scarf Heracross is also obviously a great check to DD Mega Tyranitar and Gyarados, outspeeding both even with an Adamant nature. I haven't put this to practice yet as it's something I just noticed, but it's something I think that could be worth exploring further. It would also make a great Sleep absorber putting Rest Talk as one of your moves which Scarf Heracross would have space for.
