Requesting that fast bulky tran gets an analysis. With the rise of offensive mega Scizor, I've found that speed defensive tran is one of the best answers to him. With enough speed to outrun jolly Scizor and the rest of the EVs in bulk and a timid nature, tran is able to burn things he normally wouldn't as well as set up rocks as a last ditch effort against things like min speed Defensive Lando T and the like. I find it to be better than air balloon rocks because it has more longevity and can take hits better thanks to the HP investment. It's been an incredibly effective pivot for me and I've seen plenty of others use this same or very similar set. I don't remember the full spread cuz I'm on my phone atm but it was something like this:
Heatran @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 248 HP / x SDef / x Spe
Timid Nature
- Will o Wisp
- Lava Plume
- Stealth Rock
- Protect / Taunt / Roar
Now I don't remember the exact allocation of speed and SpAtk, bu it outspeeds and OHKOes offensive mega Scizor, gets last ditch burns against the likes of Bandnite, Defensive Lando T, Rotom W, And other stuff I'm forgetting. I've found it incredibly effective as of late and I firmly believe that in this state of the meta an analysis is deserved.
