I have taken Shrang's idea and started running 24 Speed on Breloom -- while always missing the speed tie mach punch sucks, the extra bulk has been pretty good to me. I was wondering about Scarf Breloom as a revenge killer to Keldeo and Manaphy, but it seems pretty risky.
Thundurus is your best bet against rain Pokemon. Breloom is either classic, SD, or CB in my opinion. Keldeo isn't too hard to revenge in comparison to Manaphy just because it can rest off damage and can't keep a status in rain. Manaphy should get banned however, which means that once this occurs the success of Breloom's revenging will go down and make the set obsolete. The question is what effective moves could ScarfLoom also run to get better coverage? It'd be a cool idea if he got more punching typed moves.
