Yeah it only takes one look at the moveset to know exactly what this guy does. His plethora of common resistances and immunities make set-up a breeze for Thundurus-T. Ferrothorn, Forretress, Skarmory, Bronzong, and other offensively-challenged Pokemon are complete setup bait for Thundurus with Sub keeping him safe from status. His base 101 Speed keeps him ahead of most Scarf Pokemon after a Salac boost and makes it extremely easy to spam Substitute until Salac activates. His massive Special Attack stat crushes foes after a Nasty Plot. I mean there's honestly not a lot to explain. The set is damn good at what it does and a very nasty late-game surprise.

Arceus help you if you run stall and see this thing. Chansey can't save you and your last resort scarfer probably can't either. Latias is a good check but Nasty Plot Thunder is still gonna hurt like hell.
Replays? Not sure how effective this can be against Lati@s, Landorus, Gliscor, Celebi, pretty much anything that it could normally handle with HP Ice.
