Both Mega Lopunny and Mega Diancie get it and can use it when the opponent switches. But I wouldn't go all the way to fit it on my Mega unless it already is on the team.
First, couldnt you battle eachother with the same team?
That's actually a hell of an idea...
Honestly I think its near impossible to do so. But look, how basically everyone in this site got better was by losing a lot. So I woudnt worry about it as its a learning experience. I guess u could show him sample teams. TBH thats probably the best way.
No not really, 68 speed is purely to outspeed the 176 Adamant Ttar spread that was on analysis a while back, which isn't really run anymore as 1. A more efficient spread was found to hit the same benchmark as 80 hp did (living a +1 buzz from volc) and 2. There honestly isn't much reason to hit that benchmark anymore considering the majority are Z Bug Buzz and can just blow you away with that anyway. Me and many others just run max speed Adamant Tar now to just avoid the speed creeping people try to do over the 176 spread. This follows onto your second question - yes it's still worth hitting as people are running 252 Ada Ttar.
IDK if this is the right place to ask, but Ill answer this anyway. If we look at UU, we can see that there are 2 electric types there were not there last gen. Raikou and M Man. Both those outclass heliolisk so thats why he is not in UU. In RU, Im not 100% sure why helio is not used more often, but I think rotom-h and rotom-c have an impact on that. You would probably have to ask the RU room to ask that question. But yeah, that why its not in UU like it was in ORAS.
It's not; please try to keep all questions in this thread directed at OU metagame related topics. With that said, thank you for your answer!
Sorry, I didn't know where else it could've went.
It eats one Thunder Punch from Mega Mawile from full. This is crucial because Moltres can eat the hit and Roost off the damage since its Flying type is removed. Moltres can OHKO it with Flamethrower once it has recovered sufficiently.
An extra 4 HP evs is added to Magnezone to take less damage from hazards (282 takes more hazard damage than 283) and the HP is so you guaranteed live a +1 HJK from Hawlucha after Rocks.

Thanks, it's more so I can taunt Reuniculus then switch into Ash-Greninja or something else that would quickly win against Reuniculus without boosting/recovery.

The form I view the OU tier is almost the same way you described it. An volatile Metagame which resolves around a bunch of prominents treats where a 'mon can pass from "Niche" to "Meta trend" because the presence or absence of another prominent 'mon, or new sets popping out. Example of this are Hydreigon, who is rising in usage thanks to Ash Gren, Fat Psychics like Reuniclus & Tran being so good, Mega Mawile, who enjoys the fact that Stall is gaining traction, Tapu Bulu with it's Special Bulky SD Set, the Avalugg + Moltres Stall team (able to handle Zyg, most of Tran's Z-Crystal sets and MMaw, who can completly destroy Stall), and Blacephalon with the rise of Hyper Offense and the SubCM Set being discovered.
