BISHARP!!! seriously Bisharp needs some love. with paralysis support it is an absolute monster. a set like

Bisharp (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Defiant
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Swords Dance
- Substitute
- Sucker Punch
- Brick Break/ Tuant

can rip holes in things. its giant base 125 attack couple with SD skyrockets to 766 after 1 boost. it performs a similar role to subsalac garchomp except instead of sand veil you are waiting out paralysis. Sucker Punch STABed is no slouch either dealing massive damage to unresisted foes. the only problem with Bisharp is is fraility and its very specific role as it can not "sweep" unless you have spread some paralysis. i is better just for taking out single threats individually. Still, it is an underrated monster especially couple with guys like ParaShuffler Dnite. another great thing about it is the offensive momentum it gives to the match in that if they switch you have a free sub and you can Sucker Punch or Swords Dance anyone breaking the sub. btw Archeops is also amazaing especially in the sand.
