>>14476547The 4x resistance isn't the only part that matters. Resistance in general matters. Baiting a single steel-type is easier than baiting Steel-types and Rotom and Jolteon and Zapdos and Tyranitar and whatever else I'm not immediately remembering. All of those things stand in the way of your sweep by resisting you just as much as any Steel would. As a result, you have to start your sweep later in the game and have slightly fewer opportunities to set up.
It's interesting that you're saying that all you need to take out is Magnezone (which 2x resists Dragon) before you can sweep but ignore all the other 2x resistances for Flying.

>>14476730>Outrage is shit now that Fairy exists, so that's goneOutrage is still viable, just less so. Immunity ends Outrage immediately, so it's less of a threat than bulky steels. Since most fairies have low Def and high SPdef, it's not like hitting them with a coverage move won't kill almost all of them anyway. Either way, it's irrelevant, since I'm talking about why Outrage sweeping HAS EXISTED and why Pinsir with Thrash falls very far short of what it had. I'm not speculating on how useful Outrage will be.
>>14476730>It's there to sweep, not to switch out.Yeah, you're right. Nothing unexpected ever happens, and you always have perfect knowledge on when to switch it in. 4x SR weakness will hurt its options. There's really no reason to see it as anything but a drawback.
It's also interesting how all of you are ignoring the lack of DDance. Dragon sweeping wouldn't be a thing without the ability to hit +1/+1 to outspeed revenge killers.
