Uh so this thing is probably Thundy-T's best set now, as it is the greatest thing against Rain Stall that ever existed, if Stealth Rock didn't exist. Also gr8astard posted a Double Dance Lando-T set, so why not Thundy-T along with it.

<p>Thundurus-Therian can actually use both of its boosting moves to pose a significant threat, either picking the right one after coming in on moves such as Scizor's Bullet Punch and choice locked Keldeo's Secret Sword or using its surprising bulk in order for it to setup both boosts given the right situation. It is also one of the most threatening Pokemon once it sets up both boosts, as nearly nothing can really stop it after it gets both a Nasty Plot and an Agility, especially if it is ran in rain; as Thunderbolt and Hidden Power Ice is all the coverage you need. Agility can let you do very well against most offensive teams, as the power of Thundurus-T tends to be enough to beat them but needs the speed to effectively sweep. Nasty Plot lets you break most Stall teams and stall cores, especially most Rain stall teams that go around. Thunderbolt is your main STAB move, but you can opt for Thunder if you are in the rain, which you should probably be using it in. Lastly, Hidden Power Ice gives very good coverage along with Thunderbolt, hitting Ground-types like Landorus-T and Venusaur. Leftovers tends to be the best item for Thundurus-T, but the ability to lure in status and setup two boosts is something that can also be used very well.</p>

<p>The EV Spread gives you enough outspeed Toxicroak while having as much Special Attack as possible, while dumping the rest into bulk in order for it to recieve as much boosts as it can. A basic 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid spread can be used to outspeed Jirachi, Volcarona and Kyurem-Black, but Thundurus-Therian needs some bulk and a Modest nature to perform as efficiently as possible. Life Orb is also another good option on the set, but you will wear yourself down quickly especially with that Stealth Rock weakness Thundurus-Therian has. And lastly, a Zap Plate can also be used for Thunder in rain to 2HKO Ferrothorn after Leftovers after a Nasty Plot. </p>
<p>Thundurus-Therian always loves rain support. It lets it abuse the powerful Thunder, which can 2HKO most resists at +2, being sufficient enough to single-handedly over power rain stall teams. Thundurus-Therian can also make good use of Spikes support, as it can force switches, while getting as much kills as it can, while it nails Flying-types immune to them with a powerful Thunder, so Pokemon like Forretress can really help. As Thundurus-Therian is weak to Stealth Rock, a spinner is always appreciated, Forretress enters here again as a good partner as it can spin and setup Spikes and use Rapid Spin. Starmie can also Rapid Spin, denting Ferrothorn and luring bulky Water-types in order for Thundurus-Therian to setup. Dual Screens support is also welcome to setup both boosts reliably from Pokemon like Latios or Azelf. Lastly, Thundurus-Therian doesn’t like priority coming from Pokemon like Mamoswine’s Ice Shard, so a Pokemon that can setup on common priority like Swords Dance Scizor, and Sub Salac Terrakion.</p>

nature: Modest
evs: 128 HP / 252 SpA / 128 Spe- This set lets Thundurus-T use one of its boosting moves to either destroy Stall, or become a massive threat against Offense.
- If you end up letting it get both of its setup, you're pretty much done.
- Only relies on BoltBeam coverage which is efficient enough.
- Can setup against the likes of Scizor and Secret Sword Choice locked Keldeo.
- Agility lets it beat Offense, while NP beats stall, especially Rain Stall.
- BoltBeam Coverage is standard.
- Thunder if you are in a rain team, which you should probably be using it in.
- A Zap Plate can be used to always 2HKO Ferrothorn after Leftovers at +2 with Thunder
- The EV Spread lets you outspeed Toxicroak, while outspeeding Rain Kingdra after Agility boost, while also having enough bulk to live some hits.
- Max Speed
- LO
- Rain
- Thundy-T loves Spikes, as most spinners are relucant to spin against it, and the Flying-types that are immune to Spikes get wrecked by Thunder.
- It also likes Rapid Spin support, so Forretress fits really nicely, while LO Starmie (Analytic is awesome, especially if you are using it in rain) can weaken Ferrothorn and Celebi, while luring Bulky Water occasionally.
- Thundurus-T is also weak to priority from Pokemon like Mamoswine, so other sweepers that can flow after Thundurus-T's death is also welcome, like SubSD Terrakion and SD Scizor.
