OU Bulky QD Volcarona [EV spread correction]

[KikeKart [SPA]]

As you can see on the OU Bulky Quiver Dance set, the proposed EV spread uses a Bold nature and enough Speed EVs to outspeed neutral-natured base 150 (like Modest M-Alakazam or Adamant M-Aerodactyl), and the leftover EVs are placed in HP (248, allowing 3 switch-ins with SR) and Defense (136). When using this nature and EV spread Volcarona reaches 373 maximum HP, 220 Defense and 267 Speed.

I made some calculations, and there is a better spread to use: Timid, 248 HP / 232 Def / 28 Spe. When using this spread, Volcarona reaches the same Speed benchmark than the previous set, but its Defense is 4 points higher (224 instead of 220)

To see the difference:

I think the spread should be changed

Hey
This kinda thing would be better brought up here normally:
http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/ou-analyses-discussion-thread.3512422/
But considering it's already getting a revamp (another thread in this subsection) that analysis will be over written soon

iirc Bulky QD Volcarona was rejected for a main set and is actually considered OO, so when the ORAS analysis goes up then there shouldn't be a problem.

The current analysis onsite is outdated, and the bulky QD set is going to be removed anyways in the next update as seen in other other Volc thread.

Thank you.
