Unnerve Pyroar is a neat anti-meta mon in VGC, thanks to berries being everywhere.
It isn't a shitmon.

What moveset on Claydol? I have a 6 IV Baltoy. Maybe I can give it a fine moveset.

I used Parasect recently for a doubles grass team.

Parasect (F) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Effect Spore
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
- Rototiller
- Spore
- Counter
- Wide Guard

Surprisingly bulky, and its moveset is not something most people would expect.

It's ridiculous but works a surprising amount of time depending on their wall.

Between Fire blast/blizzard/focus miss and HPof your choice you can surprise a lot of things.

I'm not saying it's good but it is funny

Not really, dude. Ferrothorn just fucking sits on azumarill spamming spikes, stealth rocks and thunder wave. Sap sipper azumarills can't touch ferrothorn. The superpowers wont deal enough damage

I'm aware of two gimmicky sets:
-Soak/Toxic
-Scaldburn
Or you can even set +6 sdef with amnesia to be almost immune to those nasty thunderbolts.

Cacturne @ Leftovers
Ability: Water Absorb
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Spd / 4 SAtk
Hasty Nature
- Substitute
- Disable
- Giga Drain
- Low Kick / Sucker Punch / Leech Seed

It's a nice Azumarill check, especially the Belly Drum set. Switch into a water attack, substitute and disable the Play Rough that breaks the sub.
If Azumarill runs only Water/Fairy coverage it has to switch out or die to Giga Drain/Leech Seed.

When you are already behind and you have a retarded Talonflame user as your opponent you can disable Brave Bird and switch in something that can take a fire attack and kill Talonflame without having to eat a priority BB.

Of course it's still shit (it doesn't learn knock off or taunt, both would be great) and there are better disable supporters out there, but it can be quite fun to play.

I tried a Mew set with Trick while holding a Ring Target. It's not really worthwhile and takes a bit of prediction to use correctly but man is it fun to button Fairies with Outrage late game.
