>>20337178>Even with a Motor Drive boost, he can't really KO muchThat's because his moveset consists of 75 base power attacks most of the time in the elemental punches. Its STAB is 90 base power compared especially to things like Flare Blitz, Close Combat, Brave Bird, Hydro Pump, Earthquake, Outrage, etc working as the main STAB moves of every other typing.
You can see from Talonflame that the power is the more important thing if he's an 81 base attack starting bird OHKOing half the metagame.
People used to use Mixvire just because Thunderbolt was a much better move than its other option being thunderpunch.
Tough claws and an attack boost from going mega would help that. 143-163 base attack would definitely be strong enough to score some OHKOs.
