Well shit
Where did you find that spread? Curious. The analysis has adamant max Attack max speed, but there are lower speed benchmarks you could look for.
I wouldn't ever trust spreads given on the calc. I believe most of them were implemented either in early XY or before ORAS when everyone was just theorymonning sets. You're pretty much always better off checking the finished analyses in the preliminary pokedex whenever possible since those are usually up-to-date
Yeah, I don't generally trust spreads in the calc but I actually didn't know where analyses/prelim dex were until doing a more thorough search just now. I had checked a few RMTs to see what spreads they used and I indeed saw the arcane calc spread. Anyway glad I asked, thanks for the help.
I think the Damage Calc got it backwards, since 192 speed evs give enough speed to Mega Altaria in order to outspeed Scarf Tyranitar after a Dragon Dance, the only really useful "speed bench" in those 60 leftovers evs is Adamant Diggersby.
Oh, and Greninja after a Dragon Dance, but its banned, which leaves only Tornadus-Therian.

And Mega Pidgeon
If you are gonna use it with foul play that is the one i used and a great trolly mon i recomend you to invest all in bulk, impish 252 HP 252 Def 4 Sp Def so you can take physical hits and retaliate with foul play, you can also go for the careful 252 HP 252 Sp Def 4 Def if you need a more reliable latitwins check
why do people run 72 hp evs on latias to avoid the 2hko from thundy, when LO will probably kill you off anyways?
You just Roost in respond, allowing Thundy to kill itself. I believe the spread survives LO Thundurus so you just let it defeat itself.
Will-o-Wisp Mega Gardevoir, Shadow Ball Specs Sylveon, and Earthquake Latios with around 140 to 160 attack EVs are three decent ones off the top of my head. There's definitely more but Rachi is so dang bulky it can be hard to find them :/

Cause almost any physical threat can hit super effectively kyu-b like azuma, scizor, lando-t with u turns or hits with stone edge, bisharp iron heads etc....
So go for the Mild one
Imo use a mild nature because Kyu-b normally enters easier in mons like venusaur, raikou, thundurus and all those special mons that because of its tiping can resist.

Are you switching out? It only lasts if you keep Heatran in.
Isn't using that much Attack compromising either Latios's more used Special Power or his speed, even for a lure?
Not necessarily. It also allows Latios to hit Tran harder for one. I mean if you look at what other lures comprise in terms of moveslots and items a few EVs here or there is nothing. Consider Natural Gift Talon. It gives up Sharp Beck, and the ability to Roost in exchange to hit one Pokemon. That's a much steeper price to pay. Mega Pinsir running Knock Off also gives up better coverage (CC) or priority in Quick Attack. I would actually say that's on the lower end of lures because it can at least function really close to a normal Latios.
Ah, that must be it.
