Just because it's standard, doesn't make it the best set. However in this case I have to agree, the "Standard" set should definitely go first. Scarf is incredibly underwhelming.

Along with the set changes, I would really like to see some changes in the sets.

Standard:
-U-Turn deserves a mention in the third slot over the other current options. Gaining that damage on Cresselia and switching out before it can Ice Beam or Icy Wind you is way more useful than Imprison or Sub.
-Make an AC mention of a bulkier spread that can take Hydreigon's Modest Dragon Gem Draco
-Mention Jolly in AC
-Either slash Stone Edge with Rock Slide, or mention it in AC. If you're intimidated, you really aren't doing much with non-STAB Rock Slide.

Scarf:
-Move the current spread to AC and have just a 252/252 spread listed on the set.
-Either slash Stone Edge with Rock Slide, or mention it in AC. If you're intimidated, you really aren't doing much with non-STAB Rock Slide.

I guess that's it for now.

Also don't write up analyses until they pass the QC stage, it just makes it easier for everyone.
