Boasting an excellent defensive typing into a very steel heavy meta, moltres finds itself as a very valuable defensive piece on a lot of structures, annoying common mons such as Melmetal greatly. Will-O-Wisp let's it cripple other dangerous physical attack rs such as Dragonite, further boosting it's defensive capabilities.

0 SpA Moltres Flamethrower vs. 4 HP / 252 SpD Assault Vest Melmetal: 164-194 (39.8 - 47%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

Helps vs. Zapdos as well, nice tech on teams that struggle to deal with Moltres cores.

Idk if this is real but I keep seeing sedge/head smash tusk so we're just gonna pretend that it is. Seems reasonable enough with all the mons like molt/yard/zap floating around that like to be annoying to tusk.
