At least in VGC it wasn't rare for Blaziken to run Overheat as a one time move

Sorta.
Mixed attackers are often good, but they rarely run good mixed sets.
It's more like they have the choice to either be physical or special.
Mixed attackers who do run mixed sets often do it more out of desperation. If Dragapult had a decent physical Ghost move, I don't think it'd ever go mixed, for example.

Tyranitar has been often run as a special attacker in VGC because of the coverage and intimidate
In gen8 it's purely used as a physical though

Irrelevant. How people use them doesn't change what their stats are.

If only that was actually the question asked and not a forced re-wording, you might've had a point.

Not him, op asked if anything was good as a mixed attacker and those responses are fine
>They'd be better if they were min maxed into 1 style
I don't think anyone would disagree but that isn't what was asked

Good at mixed attacking, which is what you said, is not the same as a mixed attacker that is actually good, which is what OP asked. So no, saying Nidoking is commonly used as a special attacker isn't relevant, because we're not talking about whos good at mixed attacks. He's a mixed attacker that is good

When you say mixed attackers do you mean pokemon with mixed attacking base stats or pokemon set up with both physical and special moves?

It's not. I'm sorry you can't read, but it's not my fault. Here, let me help with a food metaphor, that's probably more your speed.
>are there any good diet sodas?
>are any diet sodas actually good for dieting?
Spot the difference.

Nidoking is well known for it. Very few actual switch hitters though, maybe Wobuffet.

Nidoking in theory but no Gunk Shot or and no ground Sheer Force boosted option alongside having to rely on the elemental punches as coverage. Soecial just dies better but I can see a 3 special+Gunk shot be a thing.

In general mixed sets work if you have either a sheer BSTs to back them, an ability that boosts both options, or some crazy high Stab options to surprise people.

Venusaur can do mixed sets with Growth but it's only options are Power Whip, Earthquake and knockoff while it's Special options are much wider.

But mostly because the ice physical moves are sort of shit and blizzard/freeze-dry are simply better options.

They said "effective" not "optimal" retard. Barely anything's optimal as a mixed set, and literally nobody here asked for optimal sets.
