and if you forego Night Slash for Quick Attack then he makes a great late game cleaner as well as wallbreaker.
That's totally legititmate, in the specific niche of both beating Gligar and faster offensive threats. It's worth noting that neither Heracross nor Zangoose can beat all three of Gligar, bulky Ghosts, and faster Pokemon - both only get two of three with their respective sets.
