A nice offensive core for the lads, and a pretty simple one at that as well. Assault Vest Bisharp is there to come in and trap (or to at least play mindgames between Sucker and Pursuit) the Psychics/faster Pokemon like Latias, Celebi, Alakazam, Starmie, and Gengar for Keldeo. With those kinds of Pokemon gone, Specs Keldeo can proceed to easily punch holes in a variety of different team archetypes just due to its sheer power and lack of checks after the aforementioned Pokemon are eliminated. Keldeo also benefits Bisharp by providing pressure to Pokemon that usually check Bisharp, like Hippowdon, Gliscor, or even Pokemon like Bewear, which has been gaining some popularity lately. But yeah, overall, really good core featuring a couple of the best Pokemon in the metagame right now
