This is quite possibly the single best set in all of BW2, discuss.
Latias (F) @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Draco Meteor
- Earthquake
- Sucker Punch
- Healing Wish
Here is an example of the set in action, completely obliterating TR Reuniclus at the highest level of play and leaving the opponent shellshocked.

Simply put this set is ownage. Plenty of Other options for 4th move such as Magic Coat, Zen Headbutt, Thunder Wave (mostly unnecessary since Sucker Punch is all you need), Roost (for cowards), and others. I find Healing Wish aligns best with my own philosophy: I choose death before dishonor. The only problem is Ferrothorn, perennial favorite of cowardly players. HP Fire is underwhelming on mixed Latias, but with Zen Headbutt and a little bit of luck we can win the matchup.
I would be interested to see any other takes on this postmodern classic and teams built around it.
