Still blanked by most fire types, still UU by current standards. Item slot isn't as important as moveset; it bit the bullet hard when Hidden Power was cut.

I think that is underestimating a little bit. Immunity to hazards and toxic etc in ability while freeing up item slot is huge. Life orb, leftovers, etc are huge boons for it. But it would still have its most fundamental issues, yes.

Considering volcarona is in UU atm, it'd be back in OU at best.

Still has no moves. Give it Scorching Sand and it'll shoot up.

Quoted By:

The huge part beyond not needing boots is actually the status immunity. Some variants of Volcarona went as far as running Safeguard to 1v1 certain Pokémon that would rely on Toxic Stall to beat it 1v1 because they wouldn't win the setup war, so this is important.
Still lacks key ground coverage that would cement it as broken, but would definitely be more annoying & further centralize the metagame around running Heatran.

Verlis dog doesn't even get Accelerock.
The other 2 Lycanrocs do, but the one based on Verlis doesn't because GF holds nothing but contempt for that furfag.

You people are in denial if you think it would be anything but Ubers. It would have two counters: spdef haze toxapex, and heatran with a rock move. Anything that could use toxic to check it is now setup fodder. Being able to revenge volcarona would be absolutely necessary for a scarfer.

and if they will create an ability that decreases the damage of rock-type moves and stealth rocks and that Volcarona obtain it? LMFAO

Dragapult might actually rise to Ubers with Poltermiss.
The main thing keeping it down is its lack of reliable physical Ghost STAB.
