Also, the Honkalculator doesn't have Blast Burn, so I used full health Eruption instead, as they have the same power.

252+ SpA Choice Specs Solar Power Charizard Eruption (Blast Burn) vs. 4 HP / 252+ SpD Blissey in sun: 466-550 (71.47 - 84.35%)
52+ SpA Choice Specs Kyogre Water Spout vs. 4 HP / 252+ SpD Blissey in rain: 393-463 (60.27 - 71.01%)
252+ SpA Choice Specs Reshiram Blue Flare vs. 4 HP / 252+ SpD Blissey in sun: 340-402 (52.14 - 61.65%)
252+ SpA Choice Specs Deoxys-A Psycho Boost vs. 4 HP / 252+ SpD Blissey: 280-331 (42.94 - 50.76%)
252+ SpA Choice Specs Kyurem-W Draco Meteor vs. 4 HP / 252+ SpD Blissey: 268-316 (41.1 - 48.46%)

This isn't meant to encourage the use of Charizard, but it may explain why people use it perhaps.
Blast burn shouldn't be mentioned, as overheat is still more powerful than any attack you listed.
