So just a quick glance at this guy it seems like he is the perfect counter for mega mom and smogonbird so why isn't he seeing a lot of use?

but almost every team has smogonbird and megamom on it so it seems like he would be a good investment even if that is the only thing he can deal with.

cause he isn't overpowered so anyone who uses him is labeled a karenfag
I still find ways to use him in OU though

I hatched a near-perfect shiny one the other day and I've been trying him out. Not sure which moveset works best on him yet but he seems to catch a lot of people off guard. Wrecking ability dependent physical attackers is great fun

Literally ANY Ghost-type counters Megamom. This isn't news.

Return/Fake Out/Power-Up Punch a shit. A Levitate Ghost works even better to counter Earthquake, the only real thing you have to worry about is Sucker Punch and you can just set up on that. Only faggots use Crunch.

I guess you'll have to worry about Scrappyfags but it's not like anyone actually waits before megaevolving

Just a quick look over I'm thinking

Pain Split (For Recovery)
Toxic (For Smogonbird)
Will-O-Wisp (For All the Physicals accept the fire ones)
Night Shade (Incase you get taunted)

I've been running Shadow Ball / Calm Mind / Disable / Haze so far. Lack of recovery seems to be my main problem at the moment so I'll probably swap out Haze for that because it seems way too situational so far. Disable is working well for me so far though. It's walled by normal types completely but eh that's what I get for not having HP fighting I guess

It does jack shit to both of those. Even if it did has no recovery unlike both of those, so both can outlast it.

Is Iron Fist still better than No Guard for Golurk even without access to the Elemental/Drain Punches?

Also, Adamant?

Now that Steel no longer resists Dark, what's the point of Earthquake?
