I would like to consider myself an expert Dunsparce user, and as an expert Dunsparce user, I need to say that Smogon Built Dunsparce completely wrong. A better way to build Dunsparce would be like this.
Leftovers
Ability: Serene Grace
84 HP / 96 Atk / 96 Def / 136 SpD / 96 Spe
Careful/Calm Nature
- Body Slam
- Pursuit
- Coil
- Roost

From my experience, Dunsparce is a tank. I have had a lot of fun setting up Dunsparce with coil, because eventually you will reach the point when you are untouchable, but be sure to only coil against a physical attacker, or else you wont last long. Also coil raises your attack and accuracy so you can get a lot of damage off with body slam, which has a 60% to paralyze, allowing you to set up more coils, or to get a lot of pursuit damage on switch in.
If you would rather run a special set, you could give him ancient power, which has a 20% chance to give you stat boosts and also calm mind, but be sure to only try to set up against a special attacker or you probably will lose.
