>Charizard is an underrated threat in ADV OU with its powerful Fire Blast threatening a large part of the metagame and its great speed tier allowing it to outspeed or tie with most of OU. Its Fire type coverage alone is excellent at threatening the OHKO on many metagame staples like Metagross, Skarmory, Forretress, Magneton, Jirachi, Celebi, Heracross, Breloom and Venusaur, but it is also equipped with great coverage moves like Focus Punch to hit Tyranitar and Hidden Power Grass to hit Swampert.>it can still perform its role as a defensive pivot thanks to its key immunities to Earthquake and Will-O-Wisp as well as its resistances to Bug, Fighting, Steel, Fire and Grass-type, which allow it to aggressively switch into battle generating momentum for its team. Critically it can act as a one-time switchin to dangerous threats like Heracross, Metagross and Breloom, and it can also scare out Gengar if it switched on a Will-O-Wisp.And here's a reply to that thread from BKC, a highly knowledgable and experienced ADV player:
>Charizard is able to switch in on and (threaten to) ohko metagross, which is as useful as it is unique
