Born in the wrong generation, that one.

If it had been Gen 4 it would be a Physical Attacker with some decent coverage moves.

This is why the EV system we have in place is shit. You should be able to earn 252 EVs for every stat, but they only count if you apply them, like Online's EV sliders, but you have to earn them first and you still have to abide by the normal limits.

It’s absolutely fine as long as the Pokémon has a physical and special animation instead of just standing there and levitating

The actual move animations are what’s important
