Not entirely useless, standard Dusclops can survive a Jolly +2 Crunch and cripple it with Will-O-Wisp, after which Scrafty isn't anywhere as threatening.
:P
Considering the many Flying- and Fire-Types in UU, Stone Edge would probably be used more. But this is all theorymon, and Scrafty will most likely not get put in UU.
Scrafty (F) @ Life Orb / Chesto Berry
Trait: Shed Skin
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 SDef
Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk)
- Bulk Up
- Rest
- Drain Punch
- Crunch
Isn't that what they normally look like? ;)
But Head Smash has the unfortunate side effect of taking massive recoil, and Scrafty is a powerful attacker, so it would probably be best to try and help its' longevity.
So it's agreed that Head Smash is not a good move for our ghetto lizard. It's better suited for Rock Head Relicanth or things that can take the recoil.
Depends on the set. Bulky DD or BU with shed skin can work just about anywhere as long as you have a way to pick off relevant phazers like skarmory who scrafty actually fears.
MoxieDD is another story. You'll probably want stuff like Scizor and Rotom-W, who do a good job wearing your opponent's team down before Scrafty can come in and clean house.

Surprised with the bulk of Scrafty, it's more resilient than people give it credit for.

Anyways, i'm gonna share this crappy set that I randomly made:
Scrafty w/ Leftovers
Ability: Shed Skin/Intimidate
Nature: Impish
EV's: 252 HP 252 Def/Sp Def 4 Atk
-Amnesia/Bulk Up
-Dragon Tail
-Toxic
-Drain Punch
Teammates: As much hazards as possible.
This set utilizes Scrafty's amazing bulk into great use. The main purpose of it is to Dragon Tail and Toxic threats that come in. Ramdom steel? Use Drain Punch. I also use Drain Punch for recovery. Shed Skin is the obious choice, but if u wanna switch in on physical threats, use intimidate. You can choose Amnesia or Bulk Up depending on your personal preference/if your team is more weak to a certain kind of sweepers. Make sure to adjust the EV's so that u gain the most bulk from both sides.
ik its crappy.
Ah, I knew the random guy I met with that would be on the forums, pitty its 100% walled by taunt Gliscor.
I'm a bloody idiot, I forgot Scrafty doesn't even care about Psychic attacks.
Well, Scrafty hates things like Terrakion and Bulk Up Conkeldurr. So, Reuniclus compliments him well. He switches in on Dark-types moves like a boss and proceeds to Bulk Up. Similarly, Reuniclus absorbs Fighting moves and can start up her own boosting spree.
