Aerial Ace Mega Scizor

Scizor @ Scizorite
Ability: Technician
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Bullet Punch
- Superpower / Knock Off
- Aerial Ace

This is the standard Offensive Sword Dance set, with a twist. Aerial Ace hits Chesnaught, Mega Venusaur, Keldeo, and Amoonguss, which otherwise wall Scizor, for large amounts of damage. Superpower is used over Bug Bite to hit Steel-types.

252+ Atk Technician Mega Scizor Aerial Ace vs. 232 HP / 0 Def Mega Venusaur: 202-238 (56.2 - 66.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
252+ Atk Technician Mega Scizor Aerial Ace vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Chesnaught: 300-356 (78.9 - 93.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
252+ Atk Technician Mega Scizor Aerial Ace vs. 252 HP / 136+ Def Amoonguss: 246-290 (56.9 - 67.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Black Sludge recovery
252+ Atk Technician Mega Scizor Aerial Ace vs. 252 HP / 240+ Def Mega Venusaur: 152-180 (41.7 - 49.4%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
252+ Atk Technician Mega Scizor Aerial Ace vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Keldeo: 262-310 (81.1 - 95.9%) -- 12.5% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock

Banned deucer.
Probably my favourite Rhyperior set, gimmicky as hell, but it's fun when it works

Weakness Policy + Rock Polish Rhyperior

Rhyperior @ Weakness Policy
Ability: Solid Rock
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Rock Polish
- Earthquake
- Rock Blast
- Ice Punch / Fire Punch

Rhyperiors defensive typing leaves it weak to 6 different types, which are pretty much lured in by Solid Rock. Rhyperior RPs on SE moves, which leaves it at +2 atk / +2 spa / +2 spe, leaving it at 392 speed, which is just under base 130s with maximum investment. Earthquake and Rock Blast are just STABs, however I prefer Rock Blast so it can break Substitutes and Sashes. The last coverage move comes down to whether you want to deal more damage to Dragons / Grass types or Steel types like Ferrothorn or Scizor. Even though Rhyperior has Solid Rock, its special defensive is horrible, so even weak Scalds or Giga Drains can OHKO it - so it functions best lategame when its checks and counters are all weakened.
