Charizard Y has an excellent typing outside of stealth rocks, which are now incredibly easy to remove, it mitigates its own water weakness with drought, and receives an instant 1.5 boost to its 159 base Satk Fire blasts. Now that politoed is dead, its free to blast water types with solarbeam barring the opponent carrying tyranitar who is destroyed by brick break, focus blast, or EQ with investment. Heatran, another major adversary is destroyed by EQ.
Charizard Y is an excellent way to take advantage of lack of hazards, and so are a number of pokemon. I've been playing a lot on the ladder and not once have I struggled to defog hazards when I needed to.
