Magmortar @ Firium Z
Ability: Vital Spirit
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid/Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Sunny Day
- Fire Blast
- Focus Blast
- Solar Beam/Thunderbolt

Sun makes Fire Blast stronger, and Z Sunny Day boosts this thing's Speed by one, which makes it pretty effective at busting through some of the faster, but frailer, checks and supporting the rest of the team, or cleaning up later on.

edit: forgot to mention that it can also be used to turn fire blast into a nuke if you don't want sun or smth

Absol @ Firium Z
Ability: Super Luck
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Will-O-Wisp
- Psycho Cut
- Swords Dance
- Night Slash

This was pretty hard then I expected to be because most of the fire moves are usually attacking moves. But I have found the one. Making Absol's attack go +1 with Z-Wil-O-Wisp it a nice boost. And with Swords Dance Making it attack go even higher it great! And with Super Luck, Psycho Cut and Night Slash it can really do some damage.

Combusken @ Firium Z
Ability: Speed Boost
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest / Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Protect
- Fire Blast
- Focus Blast
- Substitute

Much like it's Fightinium Z set, Combusken uses Firium Z to make Fire Blast into a wonderful nuke that can catch people off guard, especially if they are expecting Fightinium Z. Speed Boost just compounds the threat level by making Combusken a terrifying threat late game by quickly being able to out speed everything in the tier.

"Chaw-haw-haw!"
Skuntank @ Firium Z
Ability: Aftermath
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Dark Pulse
- Acid Spray
- Fire Blast
- Defog

Firium Z Skuntank is a nice lure specifically that helps it beat Ferroseed as a normal Fire Blast 1) doesn't OHKO the standard spread and 2) can miss. It also helps versus the very seldom seen Pawniard that may try to switch into Defog (regular Fire Blast normally KOs too but it's nice to not miss) and also does decent damage to opposing Skuntank (and by decent damage, I mean it OHKOs after an Acid Spray drop).

252 SpA Skuntank Fire Blast vs. 252 HP / 124 SpD Eviolite Ferroseed: 216-256 (73.9 - 87.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
252 SpA Skuntank Inferno Overdrive (185 BP) vs. 252 HP / 124 SpD Eviolite Ferroseed: 360-424 (123.2 - 145.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO
252 SpA Skuntank Inferno Overdrive (185 BP) vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Eviolite Pawniard: 368-434 (159.3 - 187.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO
252 SpA Skuntank Inferno Overdrive (185 BP) vs. -2 0 HP / 0 SpD Skuntank: 404-476 (116.4 - 137.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO
