Mega Blastoise just dropped to C+ rank, so Slack Off Blastoise would be cool.

since no guard is currently a detriment to doublade more than it is a positive how about hypnosis doublade (not aegislash)?. Unlike spore nothing is immune to hypnosis barring vital spirit and insomnia mons. flavour wise some ghost types can learn hypnosis.
It fits flavour-wise since Haxorus is too busy rampaging to notice the opponent has stat boosts.
Theorymon: Unaware Haxorus.
Haxorus can become a catch-all revenge killer to some of the metagame's most dangerous threats with a Choice Scarf equipped. Thanks to Unaware, Haxorus can come out on top no matter how many Dragon Dances/Quiver Dances the opponent has. It wouldn't break it as it still has troubles with defensive Steel and Fairy types, but it would breathe some new life into it.
hey bud wanna ? cyber
Theorymon suggestion:
If magic guard Celebi doesn't win, how about defog Celebi?
This will finally give it a niche to separate itself from Venusaur, and also is everything defensive defog Latias would want to be, as it can escape the effects of pursuit with baton pass. Flavor-wise, it looks like something that could do some de-fogging I guess since it's a nature pixie (i think).
Hey man
You have a ton of sets to write on Aegislash, so would you still consider my offer on helping you write several parts of the analysis up?
No Guard Sceptile is the most reliable sleeper in the game with that 100% accuracy Grasswhistle.
I'm not sure if this is legal or not but I have what I think is a pretty cool theorymon suggestion that if nothing else will at least make for some interesting discussion.
Encore Eevee.
A few things:
Encore Dugtrio: Come in on a support move, encore them into it, get the free kill, and get a free sub up. You could even set up with hone claws.
Slack Off Mega Aggron: Really it's what aggron needs. wall4dayz
Extremespeed Ursaring: Another espeed mon, although this one functions differently. It laughs at status, has access to belly drum, and espeed will make up for its low speed.
Ice Shard Gigalith? The crystals on its body could be compared to shards of ice and with priority, it can revenge kill many threats whist still having a large amount of bulk for setting up stealth rock. Its attack and typing also allow it to wallbreak when equipped with a Choice Band.
Ok, here's a cool idea: Sheer Force Krookodile. You may be thinking like: what? But, it is actually a really cool Pokemon. First off it gets access to a lot of Special moves such as Earth Power, Focus Blast, Dark Pulse, Sludge Bomb, and Grass Knot. It also has some cool Physical moves like Fire Fang, Earthquake, and Crunch. 1/2
Magic Bounce Uxie. Uxie has always been outclassed in OU by other defensive threats because of her lack of recovery. However, Magic Bounce gives her a chance to shine by making her immune to moves like Taunt and Toxic, that other support Pokemon despise.
Gonna do another Flareon buff: Unburden. Crazy? Nah, it must shed it's fur, so it makes sense flavor-wise. If you invest 252 EVs in speed you hit 502 speed, if it does indeed double your speed. Just come in on a hit you can take, which can activate a sitrus berry, and go to town! Flare Blitz still limits Flareon's longevity, but that would be what keeps it in check.
Bisharp is a pokemon that instills fear into all current defog users because they fear a +2 knock off/pursuit/sucker punch ect. If hydriegon got defog it would give it a much needed buff because it would be the only poke in ou not afraid to defog if bisharp is alive. It outspeeds bisharp and takes little from a +2 sucker punch (with defence investment) and can easily ko all variants with superpower.
This is probably the millionth Fur Coat idea you have gotten, but Fur Coat Skuntank would be good. It has Defog, Foul Play, Sucker Punch, Pursuit, and Taunt which would give it good utility.
Couple ideas for mons that could finally put a move with a lot of potential to good use:
Zap Cannon on either Galvantula or Golurk
Hi, I'd like to suggest Fur Coat Mega Houndoom. This gives it great defenses, equivalent to 75/200, or 140/140. Solar Power won't be missed much because of Nasty Plot, which boosts all moves equally without the recoil. Houndoom has good resistances too, with Fire, Ice, Ghost and Dark all being common attacking types.
Multiscale Milotic? She gets Marvel Scale, so why not Mutiscale? With it, she can tank hits very well, especially on the special side, and has Recover to heal off damage. Being a defensive Water-type is good, her special attack is alright, she has a good support movepool, and has Scald for her meh-ish defense. I think that this would be a good idea. Maybe not as good as Water/Fairy retype, but it could still work.
Suggesting Sniper Magmortar. With Focus Energy and a Razor Claw it has 100% crit chance after a turn of setup, boosting its relatively good mixed attacker. It can then function as a wallbreaker with 2.25x crit STAB Overheat spam and usable attack. Also function as a way to get past Unaware users and most importantly is a great threat to BP teams. Crit ignores Sp.Def boosts and it resists Sylveon's Hyper Voice.
Suggesting Intimidate Mega Houndoom. With Intimidate, Mega Houndoom has a surprising about of physical bulk, equivalent of 75/144, and has WoW to further dampen impacts. Houndoom has a very neat set of resistances to Dark, Ghost, Ice, allowing it to beat very common threats easily, as well as having a fantastic speed tier, which lets it handle more threats.
I'm suggesting Mega launcher Hydreigon. Hydreigon really doesn't have much of a place in ou because it is outclassed by latios and goodra. However, with mega launcher, Hydreigon has a niche over the other two by being able to spam really powerful stab moves in dark pulse and dragon pulse and not have to worry about having to switch out every turn because of drops from draco meteor.
I'm suggesting wonder guard....CHIMECHO. Chimecho is basically just acres away from OU territory, and it kinda has the wonder guard look of a pokemon. This buff could buff chimecho to UU or OU even. It can set up calm mind against a huge part of the tier. I mean, this pokemon just kinda has the wonder guard look to it, so It'd only seem logical. That being said, he keeps his ground immunity :]
Alright, so i thought all or at least most pokemon with shells get shell smash, turns out i was wrong. I noticed this one water type, that is in UU and i decided to look at his movepool, and i saw no shell smash... so i thought of blastoise getting it. I know it may sound overpowered but it does have counters i assure u it.
