<p>A decently powered lead, Choice Band LeadZelf is able to take out the opposing lead most of the time, and typically remain useful. Zen Headbutt is a good attacking move that allows you to beat Machamp, and hurt other Pokemon after the lead game. U-Turn allows you to break the sash of most Pokemon and switch to a Pokemon with Priority, while Explosion is a powerful move that can often guarantee a Stealth-Rock free match.</p>

Lead Table
Azelf - You U-Turn to Tyranitar or a Priority-User. Azelf may get Stealth Rock off, but most Taunt during round 1.
Machamp - Zen Headbutt OHKOs. If foe sends out T-Tar to pursuit, you can send out [insert favorite set up pokemon here] and have fun.
Aerodactyl - U-Turn to Priority User. He only gets 1 move.
Metagross - If you are Adamant, then KaBoom! OHKOs 90% of the time. They lose out SR. If you are Jolly, then you should U-Turn to a counter, and you MAY win.
Swampert - Exploding Pixies again! Prevents SR but dies.
Infernape - Take the Fake Out. If you are Jolly, Zen Headbutt and die to the Fire Blast. Then switch in Mr. Priority. You die, he gets no SR. If you are Adamant, then you are slower. Switch out on Turn 1 to a counter.
Heatran - U-Turn out the fastest you can.
Jirachi - Iron Head is a FlinchHKO. Switch out immediately.
Ninjask - He can protect, so switch ASAP to your Taunter.
Roserade - Either Explode and send out T-Tar/Priority or U-Turn to a Status Absorber.
