[SET COMMENTS]
<p> Has great type coverage with bolt-beam combo, only pokemon to resist this are steel/electric pokemon.
<p> Draco Meteor is a great STAB attack.
<p> The final move slot could be used with fire blast to deal with bronzong or have a stronger alternative to use on skarmory and grass pokemon. You could also use outrage as an option as its damage isn't affected by the sp.atk drop recoil from dracometeor and helps deal with blissey(2HKO) who walls this set otherwise. If you decide to run outrage use a hasty/mild nature instead with 252spA/252speed/4atk. Extremespeed is a priority move not affected by the sp.atk fall after using draco meteor. After using dracometeor and your opponents pokemon has very little HP left which is within KO range from Extremespeed will be a great position to be in as you would have priority and pick up the scraps draco meteor left you with. So basically it's Fireblast for coverage, Outrage for power and for taking out specially defensive threats and Extremespeed for priority.
<p> Good partners for this set are pokemon that can deal with mamoswine and weaville such as bronzong, scizor, and lucario. Bronzong walls mamoswine and weaville while scizor can use priority bullet punch and lucario has to watch out for faster mamoswines and Closecombat/aurasphere both threats. Starmie is a threat to this set as its faster and can ice beam so having a check do deal with starmie will be a good idea.

Any improvements or comments please don't be shy to post and don't be rude.
 
I'm not QC, but I'm not too sure what difference does this set have from the Mix-Nite set already on the site...
 
This is, in every way.. horrible compared to the Mixnite set already posted.

Good try on getting your name out there.
 
i really am sorry but this set is already on site pretty much, look at the Mix-Nite set, not only is it like 10x better and beats everything this set tries to beat as well. at best this looks like a Gimmick.
 
Draco Meteor I understand. Fire Blast / Outrage / Extremespeed is good, though I don't really like locking myself into Outrage without some boost. BoltBeam I do not understand (Thunderbolt I sorta get...). What are you beating with BoltBeam that you're not beating with your other options? Waste of moveslots. Making these moveslots usable turns this into MixNite, which is already on site. You're really only 1 move off from a very viable set (get rid of Ice Beam for Superpower), but unfortunately that set is already on site. It's a good first attempt (better than mine), but most new sets should probably be run through the New and Creative Movesets Thread first to get initial feedback. Then you can send it over the QC with a little bit of backing in the community.
 
What exactly does Ice Beam hit that Fire Blast and Draco Meteor don't? Cradily? It certainly doesn't hit Tyranitar and Blissey like the current Mixnite set does, and do the extra SpA EVs and Speed EVs even do anything notable? Unfortunately, this set just looks like a worse version then the existing Mixnite set. This /might/ be the right direction for a Choice Specs set, but even then you'd have to replace Ice Beam with Superpower/Extremespeed and Fire Blast for Flamethrower to make it at all viable.
 
Arrogance and ignorance are not going to fly here. Read the onsite analysis first, and for goodness sakes don't you dare name a set after yourself, which is quite possibly one of the most annoying things you could do.
