Yeah, I sound insane, but I think they could work on their movepool alone. Already posted the moveset on gamefaqs.
Taillow@Focus Sash
252 attack IVs, -speed + attack nature
~Endeavor
~Quick attack
~Swagger
~Whirlwind
Takes people completel;y by surprise, takes little effort to get(you barely need to level it), and owns choice band users.
Imagine the look on peoples faces when they see this:
Aerodactyl/Weavile/CGmence/anything that will attack used a strong attacking move!
Taillow hung on with focus sash!
Taillow used Endeavor!(both have 1 HP)
Taillow used quick attack! Choice bander fainted!
Works great. If they try to set up on you(like a gyarados with DD), you have whirlwind, if they use a ghost, try using swagger >_> Ghosts are one thing this thing cant handle, but its mostly a counter pokemon to counter like most of whats in the metagame. People won't expect it, either, and it does what its supposed to awesomely. You also get the right to laugh at them for owning them with a taillow.
I'll be using one, personally, it handles most of the major threats in the metagame great, and it's a ****ing taillow.
Also,
Rattata@Focus sash
252 attack EVs
~Endeavor
~Quick attack
~Taunt
~Thunder wave
Same basic idea. Taunt things that will try to set up on you. Only raticate gets roar. Thunder wave for ghosts, then run(or just switch into something that can handle the ghosts).
These can handle
Infernape
Garchomp
Rhyperior
Gyarados
Lucario
Azelf
Electivire
Heracross
Salamence
And really anything that attacks.
Ghosts own you, and if theres any form of spikes, they own you, as well as most status moves, but its mostly a choice bander counter. It works damn well for Rattata/Taillow.
