A lot of people are catching on to this trend, but the more that heatran sees play, the more M-Zam should be used as a potent response.
There are two main paths that Zam can and should take. One is the HP-Fire route, as now Zam can fire off 90BP HP fires, which can torch many potential switch ins, particularly AV or SpD Tapu Bulu, Mag, Celesteela, M-Sci you name it. The other is calm mind, which Zam can get free calm minds off in the face of heatran, but really needs zone support to take care of the steels that don't care about focus blast that much.
