RU Flygon

[GoldCat]

Flygon @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake
- Dragon Claw
- Stone Edge

In a bygone age where Zygarde-10% roamed the battlefields of RU, Flygon saw very little use and only as a Choice Scarf user. However, with the subsequent ban of Zygarde-10% and many metagame shifts later, Flygon has now firmly established itself among the upper echelon of RU's best. Dragon Dance is Flygon's deadliest set, as it allows Flygon to outspeed every Choice Scarf user barring Choice Scarf Flygon, which it Speed ties with, after a Dragon Dance. With Stone Edge to hit Togekiss, Flygon also has the coverage to hit everything neutrally, and it finds plenty of setup opportunities thanks to its excellent typing and ability Levitate. However, common bulky Water-types like Gastrodon and Milotic can stomach any boosted hit and retaliate with Ice Beam. Pokemon like Volcanion, which forces in these threats and cripples them with Toxic, makes for an excellent partner. Lucario and Sharpedo can also weaken bulky Water-types so that Flygon can sweep. Overall, Flygon fits onto most teams seeking after an offensive check to Electric-types and Ground immunity.

Durant and Sharpedo can also weaken the bulky Water-types enough so that Flygon can sweep.

GP 1/1. Lmk if you disagree with some of the changes.

Implemented, also replaced Durant mention with Lucario seeing how it'll most likely be banned.
