Heatran @ Choice Scarf
Flash Fire
Timid 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
- Overheat
- Dragon Pulse
- Earth Power
- Hidden Power Rock / Hidden Power Ice

This is a neat little set I discovered a while back. It absolutely needs Groudon support to function, but otherwise it's a fairly potent revenge killer. Timid is sadly a necessary evil since Modest Scarftran doesn't outspeed Darkrai or Mewtwo, but for the most part Heatran doesn't mind the slight loss of firepower (eheheheh). Overheat in the sun OHKOes Mewtwo and Darkrai, as well as 252 HP Groudon after Spikes. It doesn't quite pull out the KO against Arceus, but it does a huge amount of damage, so thanks to Heatran's resistance to ExtremeSpeed it can deal with a slightly weakened Arceus. Dragon Pulse hits Rayquaza, Palkia, Giratina-A/O, Zekrom, etc. fairly hard, while Earth Power is for Dialga and opposing Heatran. HP Rock allows Heatran to handle Ho-Oh, who is a massive threat to sun teams, but HP Ice is also an option here to allow Heatran to one-shot and revenge kill SD Rayquaza. You can also run auxiliary Fire-type moves over Earth Power.
