DD or Not DD- That Is the Question
Rayquaza is a common sight in uber battles. Many can attest to the times a once-dragon danced Rayquaza has ripped through their team with outrage, or a +2 Extreme Speed has felled their weakened pokemon. As setup sweepers, Rayquaza's Dragon Dance and Swords Dance sets are nearly unmatched- except by each other.
As a point of reference, here are the standard sets:
Dragon Dance
Rayquaza @ Life Orb
Jolly
32 HP/ 252 atk/ 8 sp def/ 216 spe
Dragon Dance
Outrage
Earthquake
Overheat
Swords Dance
Rayquaza @ Life Orb
Adamant
252 atk/ 4 sp def/ 252 spe
Swords Dance
Extreme Speed
Dragon Claw/ Waterfall
Earthquake/ Overheat
So, the purpose of this thread is to have the community post and discuss the opinions of its members on which of these destructive sets is superior, and what makes it so.
