TropiOUs, bar none. This set is hilarious and effective.
i dont see how this beats durants counters at all. all you did was switch the item that doesnt change the princple of the set at all?? for example lum berry > because it beats status mons that wreck durant like twave qwilfish and shit, Expert belt doesn't seem very helpful at all compared to alternate item choices.
Durant @ Expert Belt
Trait: Hustle
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 HP
Jolly Nature
- Hone Claws
- X-Scissor
- Iron Head
- Superpower
Durant has enough power already, so why would you use Life Orb? It only shortens the length of time Durant can go on his mini-sweep for, and with the decent coverage Durant possesses he is only losing out on 10% power each attack, and thinking that you would lose that much HP otherwise it only makes sense. As far as I know it doesn't miss out on any more kills, given that Durant is so powerful anyway.
Having said that, I would also like to deviate from simple one move / item changes. For example, using Lum Berry over Life Orb on an SD Absol does nothing to show any untapped potential Absol has because we already have a basic understanding of what SD Absol is and does, it's just now better at dealing with status and has less power.
