locoghoul, I agree that Victini cannot take the Pokemon you have mentioned, but frankly, Victini is able to revenge Scarf Kyogre, as it is fater than it as long as it is running a Jolly nature. Moreover Terrakion can be catched on the switch-in with Zen Headbutt, if it matters a lot to you. One of the more interesting sets I've looked into for Victini though, is Trick Room. It makes Victini bulky enough to take on a +1 Mewtwo as it does not need to invest in Speed, and it makes a great use of its signature move V-create. I'm leaning towards Sun Trick Room after Landorus, hehe.

EDIT:

@Novaray; I think that SubSD with Smack Down is irrelevant. Tyranitar makes an amazing partner for Landorus, has not only does it provide sandstorm and Stealth Rock support, it beats Giratina-O, packs Fire Blast for Skarmory, and Bronzong is pretty much rarely seen. I think I'll try that set now, lol.

All updated!
