Machamp usually holds a Flame Orb to become an extremely powerful Guts wallbreaker. The combination of Close Combat, a 140-BP Facade, and Knock Off can take down practically any defensive Pokemon; even bulky Fairy-types like Aromatisse or physically defensive Alcremie are 2HKOd. Silvally-Fairy can switch in once, but Machamp can KO it with Bullet Punch after taking a hit from Facade (or CC+Rocks). Sableye is the best defensive answer to it; however, Machamp can run Heavy Slam and gain the ability to 2HKO it as well. (Overall, though, Bullet Punch is better; it lets you do things like KO Xatu and Silvally-Fairy after they've switched into your attack, preventing them from outspeeding and KOing Machamp).
The more common ones are Passimian, Braviary, and Drapion. There are others like Mowtom and Drednaw
Braviary (M) @ Choice Scarf
Screens/a veil work really well for scrafty since it helps with its already really good natural bulk - and then if it can get to +2 on attack and speed it’s pretty good to sweep. Stuff to wear down fairy’s and plume are really all that’s needed to help scrafty out, so mons like zard, SD Beware (since it lures them out and can fire off a +2 Double Edge to severally weaken them), specs eggy creates mind games around scraftys checks, and helio can volt out to wear them down.
Yes, it's likely to happen sometime soon
First and foremost Sigilyphs typing is really good with natural immunities such as ground and also a good ton of resistances. Sigilyph was deemed too good for RU as it can run multiple sets, from support to offensive. the main factor was the latter of those, the offensive capabilities with plenty of options to bypass natural checks in steel-types such as heat wave. furthermore sigilyph has really good abilities wihich even strengthens ist offensive power such as magic guard, therefore it did not take any hazard-damage from stealth rocks and also no damage from burn and poison. Magic Guard also prevents this bird to take life orb recoils. calm mind + 2 attacks with roost or toxic was enough for sigilyph to handle a multitude of pkmn in the ru metagame and its speed is really good too with being 97 base where it hit a point where it outsped a plethora of pkmn naturally with a timid nature, and after a calm mind boost its really good spatt was just raw breaking power.
what pokemon are probably going to go from rubl to ru first?
D ranks are reserved for pkmn which actually have such a tiny "niche" that they don't have a place in the metagame actually. Like for example Ambipom at UU or Jolteon at last gen RU. These Pokémon are entirely outclassed by other pokémon which can fullfill the role much better thus they arent worth of a discussion. It also shows how "good" or in this case bad these pokémon will function in the tier.
I know the purpose of the D rank bro. You didn't answer my question
To add to this, Clawitzer is outclassed as an offensive water type by intelleon, while cinccino does shenanigans with king's rock and skill link, but not much else
