Now tell me, /vp/, why aren't you using Moltres in OU?
It's a beast in rain, its specs set being able to 2HKO 4/0 Heatran (252+ SpA Choice Specs Moltres Hurricane vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Heatran: 148-175 (45.82 - 54.17%) -- 52.34% chance to 2HKO), while still managing to OHKO defensive Tyranitar in sand with HP fighting most of the time.
With these calcs, you can tell it's going to murder everything with Hurricane.
But that's not all! It can also run agility Life Orb, with a fuckton of setup opportunities against common pokémon like Ferrothorn/Scizor/Ninetales/Volcarona thanks to its powerful defensive typing, allowing it to tank a lot of attacks. How's that scarf Keldeo of yours doing?
And that's not all! Facing a sun team? Just 6-0 it with agility LO, since you of course outspeed their Venusaur after a boost. Fire Blast just OHKOes everything, you don't even need Hurricane.
Sneaky Pebbles? Pair it with a Starmie and decimate the grass-types that try to switch in it. Or maybe you prefer to use Forretress? Just use volt switch to kill dem opponents that try to setup on you.
Why the fuck aren't you using Moltres yet?
