Togekiss is standing on those scrawny feet?!

Togekiss @ Choice Specs
Trait: Serene Grace
EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Modest Nature
- Air Slash
- Tri Attack
- Trick / Grass Knot
- Fire Blast

This is also similar to the Choice Scarf set of Togekiss on Smogon except for a few changes I preferred. I like this set as you can pretty much Flinch-stall many slow pokemon such as Snorlax and Umbreon(yes, I have fainted Snorlax and Umbreon with this set.) This set is a monster especially if paired with entry hazards.

You can choose between Trick and Grass Knot. Trick allows you to lock walls and stuff like that into a move so that they are pretty much useless for the rest of the match. Grass Knot, on the other hand, is a coverage move that allows you to hit most Rock and Ground types(stealth rock leads) hard as they are usually really heavy(Regirock, Golem). You could also run Timid nature instead of Modest nature, but Timid nature pretty much only lets you outspeed Choice Specs Chandelure and you can't really switch freely into Choice Specs Chandelure. Even if you do, you can't really take a Fire Blast that well and not getting a flinch will really disappoint you. Togekiss also needs the extra power to take down walls.

Basically, this set is to take down walls(while getting free hits due to flinches). Grass Knot also provides you with extra coverage to check many stealth rock leads.
