Thundurus-Therian (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Sheer Force
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Thunderbolt
- Focus Blast
- Psychic / Dark Pulse
- Agility

The god of lightning shows off its true powers in AAA! With the combination of Sheer Force + Life Orb and its enormous Special Attack stat, Thundurus-T is able to blast through virtually anything, including common special walls such as Heatran, RegenVest Manaphy, and Roaring Moon. Focus Blast snipes the aforementioned Roaring Moon as well as Electric-immune foes such as Ting-Lu, Volt Absorb Corviknight, and Empoleon. Psychic lets Thundurus-T further threaten Fighting-types such as Great Tusk, Iron Hands, and Zamazenta, while Dark Pulse targets bulky Gholdengo and Latios and deals hefty damage to Bulletproof Iron Treads, which is otherwise a huge nuisance. Agility is what truly takes this a step beyond, as after a boost, Thundurus-T is able to outspeed virtually the entire metagame, preventing revenge killers such as Deoxys-S, Choice Scarf Gholdengo, and Roaring Moon from outpacing and KOing it. Entry hazard support from teammates such as Ting-Lu, Skarmory, and Hisuian Samurott is crucial, as they help annoy Swampert on top of letting Thundurus-T pick up crucial KOs such as 2HKOing Iron Treads with Dark Pulse and OHKOing Heatran with Focus Blast after a layer of Spikes.

The god of lightning shows off its true powers in AAA! no sheer force pun in the hook? disappointing With the combination of Sheer Force + Life Orb in conjunction with its enormous Special Attack stat, Thundurus-T is able to blast through common special walls such as Heatran, Regenvest Manaphy, and Roaring Moon. Focus Blast snipes the aformentioned Roaring Moon as well Electric-immune foes such as Ting-Lu, Garchomp, Volt Absorb Empoleon feels like a better shout than chomp, your call and Volt Absorb Corviknight. Psychic lets Thundurus-T guarantee OHKOs on threaten Fighting-types such as Great Tusk, Iron Hands, and Zamazenta, while also being its best option against Iron Hands this implies even the bulkiest hands set are ever a problem to psychic thundyt, you're super likely to 2hko even regenvest so just "threaten" works, while Dark Pulse guarantees an OHKO on threatens bulky Gholdengo, [rc] while also dealing hefty damage to and Latios and while dealing hefty damage to Bulletproof Iron Treads, who are is otherwise a huge nuisance. spdef and/or colbur ghold is uncommon but notable enough that i don't think we should imply thundy will always ohko ghold; lumped it and latios together for this sentence since they're both mainly offensive threats to thundy while treads is just a hard wall without dpulse Agility is what truly takes this a step beyond, as after a boost Thundurus-T is able to outspeed virtually the entire metagame, preventing revenge killers such as Deoxys-S, Choice Scarf Gholdengo, and Roaring Moon from doing their job. this is worded a bit too passively, just say it blazes past them so they can't revenge kill it Entry hazard support from teammates such as Sandy Shocks Ting-Lu lol no please dont run double elec, Skarmory, or Hisuian Samurott you're lucky glory spams it with hamu, but you're on thin ice are crucial, as they help annoy Swampert and the aforementioned Bulletproof Iron Treads on top of letting Thundurus-T pick up crucial KOs. like? give an example, like dpulse 2HKOing treads after a spike

good work soldier, lots of comments but the information here is good, QC 1/1
