I've been using My beautiful Hercules (M-Pinsir) and i've been able to crush most pokemon with a nice powerful +2 return or EQ. and maybe +3 if i can get a revenge kill and SD. However i must say that i find myself getting scared out by Talonflame a lot. Where i probably shouldn't be because i forget about him. I noticed a conversation about talonflame earlier in the thread so i just thought i would throw up some Calcs for an even attack Pinsir
252+ Atk Pinsir Return vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Talonflame: 82-97 (53.2 - 62.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
(82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97)
Even non-mega with no boost Pinsir can deal a hefty sum to a Talonflame. If you switch in to pinsir and the opponent has a Talonflame on its team its almost a guaranteed switch in. So its pretty easy to predict the switch-in with return.
252 Atk Aerilate Mega Pinsir Return vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Talonflame: 171-202 (111 - 131.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO
(171, 174, 175, 177, 180, 181, 183, 186, 187, 189, 192, 193, 195, 198, 199, 202)
With a mega-return on the switch in Pinsir OHKOs Talonflame no problem. Even with full investment in Defense (who the hell does that anyway?) its an OHKO. so really with a good enough predicting game. Talonflame doesn't stand a chance on a M-Pinsir
EDIT::
252 Atk Mega Pinsir Return vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Talonflame: 132-156 (85.7 - 101.2%) -- 6.3% chance to OHKO
(132, 133, 135, 136, 138, 139, 141, 142, 144, 145, 147, 148, 150, 151, 153, 156)
I forgot to switch the typing of Return to flying. But still its a very Damaging move. and a viable way to try and deal with Tflame. Especially considering it will turn Kamikaze on the next brave bird or flare blitz. Taking down a very powerful sweeper
