Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
...Not sure yet. Blitzle's gaining threat a LOT more rapidly than I expected, and despite having +4 special attack (Sigilyph with Hidden Power Ground can draw threat with surprising ease) it can't really hurt much.
As a Zebstrika it will probably do a lot better, as then I can give it Overheat to abuse those special attack boosts with.
I've actually got my 3rd slot filling right now, just looking for a ref. However, I've got a battle that will finish VERY soon (the opponent has 1 HP and isn't trying anything fun), so you can go ahead; I'll accept within a day.
I figured out the problem. My version of the damage calculator has a glitch- whenever I input "Honchkrow" in it, it lists Honchkrow's SpD stat as ***** instead of **. Ice Beam now deals 20.5 (18.75 at -1 SpA) damage. Good catch.
