Guys, I need some help here. I'm running Zard-X
>inb4 HURRR EDGE
here's my set:
Jolly
252 ATK, 4 DEF, 252 Speed
Flame Charge
Thunderpunch
EQ
Belly Drum
I use this set with Sub-support.
But here's my question, with +6/maxed out attack, Zard X with Tough Claws either OHKOs or 2HKOs everything in the game (OU anyway), and that's without attack EV investment.
With max attack investment against Gliscor or Shuckle for example, with 0 investment or max investment, it's still a guarenteed 2HKO.
Question is, if I successfully pass a sub on to Zard and get the Drum off, is there any point in the EV attack investment? Should I put it into bulk instead?
PS: Do I need to run max speed? Or can I get away with 112 EV speed investment and outrun anything after a Flame Charge?
