move 3: Protect
move 4: Substitute / Ancient Power
ability: Flash Fire
item: Leftovers / Charcoal
evs: 72 HP / 252 SpA / 184 Spe
nature: Modest
Moves
========
Heat Wave is nice STAB, hits both the oppo.
Earth Power for great coverage.
Protect to scout the opposing move and gives the chance to the partner to kill the opposing Pokemon.
Substitute can be used to get a free and safe turn when you are sure that Heatran won't be attacked. It is also a good status blocker.
Ancient Power for coverage (Talonflame for example)
Set Details
========
Leftovers is a nice recovery if used with Substitute, while Charcoal is preferred with sets that don't have Substitute.
Modest nature to increase the amount of damage done.
252 SpA for damage.
184 Spe to outspeed a good part of the opposing Pokemon.
72 HP for filler.
This spread can also be used: 4HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Usage Tips
========
The aim of this set is dealing a lot of damage and getting free turns with the partner thanks to Protect and Substitute. It is great against follow me and Rage Powder users because it can hit them with SE moves.
Team Options
========
Due to its medium speed, Heatran is great to pair with a Tailwind user; while Fake Out users and Amoonguss can help it to use Substitute safely. Pokemon that can deal with Ground-types are great because they cover its weaknesses.
