This set can easily 1v1 most of Hitmonchan's conventional checks, such as Gourgeist, Spiritomb, Silvally-Ghost and Sableye assuming you get Sub up before it Will-Os. Aside from being an efficient lure, it can also function as a good sweeper in its own right. The speed EVs allow it to outspeed Modest max Speed Aurorus, with the HP EVs improving its overall bulk. While being hard-countered by Fairies may seem like a turn-off, it's important to note that only 4 common fairies exist in the tier (Mr. Mime, Silvally-Fairy, Mawile, Carbink). Three of those I listed get hit neutrally by one of its attacks. There's also Granbull, but that mon is exceedingly rare and not that good atm.
