Here's a set I made that can be tweaked depending on the final biases and stat cap
107/100/80/70/100/78 Total:535
Physical Sweepiness: 131, Moderately Good
Physical Tankiness: 125, Moderately Good
Special Sweepiness: 95, Average
Special Tankiness: 151, Very Good
Off/Def Balance: -8.3, Slight Bias Towards Def
Phys/Spc Balance: 7.1, Slight Bias Towards Phys
Overall Rating: 345, Very Good
Ok, the basic idea here was to keep with the original purpose which was to check the majority of the top 5. In addition to this I wanted to make sure it wasn't overpowered, or it would just become the overcentralization we're trying to avoid. Lastly, I wanted to give this the ability to be very versatile in what it could do.
Defensively, it has to potential to take hits from both sides of the spectrum. However, since 7 out of the top 10 primarily attack on the special side, it was important to make it more specially bulky than physically. The given stats enable it to take repeated hits from Strategem, Heatran, and Syclant.
With SpDef investment, it can prevent a Strategem from a 2HKO with Giga Drain. Simply because of it's typing it will wall Heatran and Syclant well. As far as Zapdos is concerned, it will be able to withstand a 252SpAtt Modest Life Orb Zapdos Thunderbolt if it is forced to. Despite walling the three top special sweepers in Strategem, Syclant, and Heatran, other special attackers such as Life Orb Azelf and Alakazam can score 2HKOs with Psychic. On the physical side, it will only be 3HKOed by CB Ttar's Stone Edge and Crunch. Scizor's Superpower won't even 2HKO unless it's banded. Since it mostly utilizes its fantastic typing to wall these physical sweepers, it can be easily broken by other physical attackers that currently aren't as common in the current metagame. Also, since all of my SpDef calculations were with 252 Spdef evs and a boosting nature, it would either have to sacrifice special bulkiness or it will be easily defeated physical threats.
Offensively, 100 attack gives it the ability to hit it's intended targets quite hard. It can OHKO Strategem and Ttar with it's STAB attacks, even without any Att EVs. It also leave large dents in Fidget, Syclant, Heatran, and Blissey. 70 SpAtt gives it the ability to at least do something on the Special side, much as CB Pyroak can do some damage on the physical side. This is different from just lowering it to unusable levels simply in order to raise other stats within the stat cap.
The Speed stat is key to the entire spread. 78 base speed is mainly to outspeed Heatran, but it also can outspeed Jolly Tyranitar without a +Speed nature. The reason I think the speed stat should be at most 78 is because it allows base 80s to get the jump on our pokemon. Since the main goal of this is to be a decentralizer, I think this is essential to enabling other pokemon to shine. No pokemon in the top 10 have a speed stat between 77 and 100, so we are accomplishing much of our goal without adding a minimum 23 extra speed points just to outspeed Zapdos, which you aren't going to beat anyway due to the typing.
That's about it except for one thing. The reason I never mentioned Revenankh in this is because I honestly think that in order to break Rev with this typing you would have to severely overpower this pokemon, creating an even worse problem than what you started with. In the interest of keeping this pokemon in line with it's original purpose I decided it would be best to forego destroying Rev. Even though it is thread jumping, I think the way to counter Rev is with the Unaware ability.
Thanks, and if you want me to post my damage calculations I will tomorrow, but for now I'm going to sleep. Thank you.
