As well as what Umby previously mentioned, I'd like to throw defensively EVd RestTalk Metagross into the mix here - it can function as a specialised check to stuff like Regice, opposing non-Fire Punch Gengar (this variant is especially good for Gengar as it can take sleep and doesn't care as much about burn), non-Flamethrower Blissey, Shadow Ball Curselax, some Tyranitar (DDTars in general are baited into EQing an 80%ish Metagross at +1 but with a defensive spread, Metagross can easily take that and retaliate with Meteor Mash). Umby's post pretty much covers all the other main pros of using Metagross in general.
