Ubers Mixape
Infernape@Life Orb
Ability: Blaze
EVs: 184 Atk/252 SpAtk/84 Spe
Hasty nature
Moves:
~Flamethrower/Fire blast
~Close Combat
~Stone Edge
~Hidden Power (Ice)
This Infernape is a total beast due to it being able to do 96% damage to Blissey with close combat using the given EVs, which therefore allows it to get a 2HKO easily. If you decide to use 252 Atk and only 4 Spe EVs, then you will OHKO Blissey with close combat every time. It's also good for knocking out choice band Dragonites that are ready to use EQ, which they won't be able to do before Infernape outspeeds and OHKOs it with HP ice.
It can also be used in Ubers easily due to it having several qualities that mixed Uber sweepers would die for. For example, being able to outspeed Groudon and then kill it with HP ice is something that Rayquaza would love. If you choose to give it a choice scarf over life orb it could 2HKO Kyogre with close combat. However, you should probably wait until Kyogre is locked into ice beam before bringing in Infernape.
Here are some damage calculations:
.Close combat 156 % max to Ubers Wishbliss
.HP ice 102% max to BandNite
.Stone edge 97% max to BandNite
.Close combat 82% to ScarfOgre
.Flame thrower 180% max to Specially Defensive Skarm
This Infernape is very weak to scarf Flygon, who outspeeds and OHKOs it using earthquake, with stealth rock damage counted in. It also severely hates Cresselia, who can take any of its attacks and then OHKO with psychic. A good teammate for this Infernape is definitely specially defensive Skarmory, who easily survives both of the mentioned attack. In Ubers, Kyogre also works very well for this purpose. Although I've never seen a scarf Flygon in Ubers.
