Work!
Seems a good chunk of Fire-types can get access to Scorching Sands:

-Charizard
-Sandslash
-Ninetales
-Dugtrio
-Arcanine
-Rapidash
-Steelix
-Marowak
-Rhyperior
-Flareon
-Mew
-Torkoal
-Flygon
-Claydol
-Hippowdon
-Excadrill
-Krookodile
-Golurk
-Heatmor
-Reshiram
-Diggersby
-Incineroar
-Pallosand
-Pyukumuku
-Cinderace
-Coalossal
-Sandaconda
-Centiskorch
Claydol's already happy here. Dude has a solid movepool already (including hazards and Teleport) and now they have a way of inflicting status.

And Pyukumuku actually gets a damaging move??

This is actually really nice for Centiskorch, which has no Ground moves and now can actually hit stuff like Heatran/Coalossal/etc.

Mega Charizard Y also kinda-sorta likes it to hit Heatran? Pallosand likes it too.

And why does PYUKUMUKU get it?
 
gengar, mew, marowak-a, shedinja, sableye, dusknoir, froslass, rotom, cofagrigus, runerigus, jellicent, chandelure, golurk, trevenant, gourgeist, decidueye, palossand, dhelmise, lunala, marshadow, polteageist, cursola
Alolan Marowak hits REALLY hard with that (although Shadow Bone is more reliable), and Runerigus also likes having a good physical Ghost move although it doesn't really have the space for it (still cool though!).
 
Yea i agree. And amoonguss and slowbro arent comparable at all anyways. slowbro has excellent coverage and decent offensive stats while amoonguss just sits there

Dont forget slowbro gets nasty plot this gen
Hell it can even run Iron Defense+CM+Stored Power+Slack Off and it's immune to Toxic now. Almost certainly not very good, but there's a lot of options this thing has.

Can we check if Pyukumuku gets Flip Turn?

The fact that it gets Scorching Sands is amazing... does it get this to not be a momentum drain too?

Quite a few notable users. Pallosand, flygon, ninetails, reshiram, claydol, torkoal, charizard, and heatmor i believe all are special attack focused and make the best use of it, but others appreciate a ground move that burns, like centiskorch, flareon,

Pyukumuku does not get it. The other user made a mistake

gengar, mew, marowak-a, shedinja, sableye, dusknoir, froslass, rotom, cofagrigus, runerigus, jellicent, chandelure, golurk, trevenant, gourgeist, decidueye, palossand, dhelmise, lunala, marshadow, polteageist, cursola
This is a good gen for decidueye and gourgeist (the 99 speed one)

Both getting grassy glide and poltergeist (and gourgeist got access to power whip as powerful grassstab this gen too!)
