Togekiss for
A Rank
Togekiss is known as the master of flinchhax. But there's more to it than that. Togekiss has the sp.atk and bulk to make up for a remarkable Pokemon.
Some sets include:
Choice Scarf (Max Speed, sp.atk)
This set is about as haxy as it sounds, though it's not much of a viable one unless you're up vs certain teams.
Paraflinch (T-wave, air slash, hp and sp.atk/spdef)
This set is better. Togekiss can stand up to many threats and either flinch em to death or roost and wait for para then plot.
And the one I just recently experimented with (As I love experimenting with odd sets, you've gotta know that by now):
Custap Power Counter...
Air Slash, Dazz, Flamethrower, Counter. With hp, def and sp.atk.
This set is completely anti-meta, as well as the other toge sets too.
Now let me show you just how bulky bulkakiss can be...

I laddered about 20 times earlier using
1 Togekiss, with my set. I won more battles than I lost.
More on the custap set.. it allows Togekiss to stand up Victini...
252 Atk Victini V-create vs. 252 HP / 64 Def Togekiss: 238-282 (63.6 - 75.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
Then counter that lil shit.
252 Atk Life Orb Weavile Ice Punch vs. 252 HP / 64 Def Togekiss: 296-351 (79.1 - 93.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
Flamethrower or counter and that thing is ded.
252+ Atk Aegislash-Blade Iron Head vs. 252 HP / 64 Def Togekiss: 312-368 (83.4 - 98.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
Somebody say flamethrower?
252+ SpA Aegislash-Blade Flash Cannon vs. 252 HP / 64 SpD Togekiss: 270-318 (72.1 - 85%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
Somebody say more flamethrower?
252+ SpA Choice Specs Meloetta Hyper Beam vs. 252 HP / 64 SpD Togekiss: 334-394 (89.3 - 105.3%) -- 31.3% chance to OHKO
This thing is bulky.
252+ Atk Teravolt Kyurem-B Fusion Bolt vs. 252 HP / 64 Def Togekiss: 286-338 (76.4 - 90.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
Counter alert! Or dazz custap, as one dazz doesn't kill.
Now the custap is mostly used a last resort.
Of course, everybody loves their classic Paraflinch...

But with more and more viable sets being introduced into the meta, there's no harm in being odd.
Togekiss is checked by Salamence and the Chars.
Togekiss is a great Pokemon in the meta, and it should be bumped up to
A Rank.
