It doesn't matter if the damage output isn't enough, you're not using this to sweep, and if you are then you're doing it horribly wrong. It's moreso a defensive pivot to other team members, while also being able to actually hit the stuff that threatens Sun Teams. Keldeo, Terrakion and any other Fighting types get hit by Psyshock, while Dragonite, Salamence, Haxorus, Latios, Gliscor, and Landorus (T) are hit by an Ice Beam. Ferrothorn, Forretress and Scizor are hit hard by Hidden Power [Fire]. All of these pose some threat to Sun Teams, which is why I use Cresselia -- being able to remove Dragonite or Scizor can easily pave the way for Venusaur to sweep.
