It's hard for me to believe this crap is STILL used quite a bit and what makes it worse is that in the January 1825 OU usage stats for Charizard:
Air Slash 5.171%
Dragon Pulse 4.789%
The 1695 and 1500 stats only get worse and it's cringe worthy looking at them.
So in other words -
Don't use this:
Charizard@Charizardite Y
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid/Modest nature
-Fire Blast
-Solar Beam
-Focus Blast
-Air Slash
Air Slash has literally zero use on Char-Y. Fire Blast nukes everything in sun and Solar Beam is a very obvious move on it for waters and whatnot while Focus Blast nails Tyranitar and Heatran. Air Slash is so weak compared to these moves what on EARTH would you ever need it for? Your last move typically won't be used QUITE as much as these first three anyway so instead of Air Slash:
Try using this:
Charizard@Charizardite Y
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid/Modest nature
-Fire Blast
-Solar Beam
-Focus Blast
-Dragon Pulse/Roost/Will-O-Wisp/SOMETHING THAT MAY HAVE SOME USE
As mentioned, you likely won't use this last move too often, but since you have it, why not make it at least SOMEWHAT useful? Dragon Pulse gives you an option for hitting Latias/Latios who resist all of your other moves. Roost is recovery, enough said. It hardly matters what it even is, just think about it and you'll find something with more use than Air Slash. Even something like Earthquake could be used for reliably hitting Heatran. I took a quick look through the Viability list and there is NOTHING that is hit harder by Air Slash than a sun-boosted Fire Blast, Solar Beam or Focus Blast. Do yourself a favor and give your last moveslot some purpose.
