Screw scouting. This baby is a Scarf Revenger, and functions pretty decent for late game clean up. Earthquake hits Heatran, Infernape, Lucario, Metagross and friends. Ice Punch is primarily for revenging DDMence. ShadowStrike provides a solid STAB and hurts Rotom, Latias, Starmie, Celebi, and the like. I haven't actually used Meteor Mash since it doesn't really help revenge anything and ShadowStrike is the better late game cleanup. As such, I may end up replacing that with ThunderPunch to deal with Gyarados and waters in general. U-turn used to be on this set and could still go in Meteor Mash's spot to scout it's counters (face it, it's not scouting anything else). Superpower is available for Snorlax (I've seen a few around).

Maxing the Attack stat is obvious; it can't afford to sacrifice points there. The speed EVs allow you to beat standard Scarf Dugtrio by one point, so none of the points are wasted trying to outspeed nothing.
