Now, as i was using Syclant on DJD's server, it wasn't broken at all. I used 2 sets and both were effective, but one seemed a bit broken. The first set i used was
~Substitute
~Drain Punch
~Bug Buzz
~ Ice Beam
@ Life Orb
Drain Punch is a 3hko on Blissey, but the Life Back, helps me keep my Life Orb damage down and helps me recover from Substitute. Bug Buzz hits Cresselia and Celebi. Ice Beam is for Dragons, and Gliscor, while sub helps me scout, and keeps me away from Thunder Wave or Will-o-Wisp.
While Syclant was highly effective, without Life Orb it isn't nearly as effective. Has the poorest dual threat typing, in terms sweeping. Ice and Bug isn't the best style of sweeping. Especially since Lucario can switch in, and Bullet Punch you to hell. Registeel is the best counter to Syclant. Takes lol damage from Super Power and Earth Power. The only thing that may have Syclant broken is the move Earth Power and Focus Blast because that means he can seriously hurt most of his counters, especially with Tail Glow at it's hands. If you remove Focus Blast, Earth Power and Tail Glow, i think it will do just fine and will be a little more tolerable in the OU Metagame. That way, more than just Bulky Waters can be counters, Jirachi can be a counter, along with Heatran. Of course since this isn't a Gamefreak though up Pokemon, people who try and nit pick every single thing that may seem broken to them. I ran this Tail Glow set
~ Blizzard
~ Bug Buzz
~ Focus Blast
~ Tail Glow
I swept through 3 teams with that set, Tail Glow as they go to Blissey, i Focus Blast for the 2hko. If you remove 3 moves, Syclant will do JUST fine, it's a very cool pokemon, that really should be on a lot of teams, do to his versatility and big base power moves.
