Surely this Weezing fails against both Revenanhk and Gyarados XP. Seriously, I know 85 SA isn't huge, but come on dude, just because you hate Weezing for some stupid reason and clearly haven't taken 5 seconds to look at his movepool doesn't mean we should all be saddled by your ignorance.

Weezing shuts physical threats down, especially Ground types. They get burned and then die off.

Now I did some testing on Shadow Ball vs. 384/308 HP/SDef Revenank, and against my Subpunch variant no SA Weezing only hits 20-24%, but there's no reason you couldn't pump its SA a little. Weezing could also haze away Rev's Bulk-Ups, leaving it useless Shed Skin or otherwise. Taunt doesn't work well with Hammer Arm. If you've Bulked Up and used Hammer Arm once, Weezing can easily come in and Haze you. Unless you've boosted speed some, 48 Speed EV's on Weezing outspeeds Revenankh.

Also I would like to say that Taunt Gliscor is a Revenankh counter unless Rev has Ice Punch. Power Whip has too meh accuracy and Gliscor can AA in the meantime. Scizor packing AA also shows Revenankh the door.

[17:55] <&Deck_Knight> It would be a lot easier for him to Cite and Prune if we made him a mod.
