av heracross has seen some use on stall teams. this isnt an ev spread you'll typically see them using though, this was altered to help against these guys specifically. it has enough speed for max speed trans and enough attack to ohko 252/4 trans. megahorn 2hkos cress and cress cant 2hko. plus you can use guts to take a twave and use it to your advantage.
156 Atk Heracross Earthquake vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Heatran: 200-236 (101 - 119.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO
156 Atk Heracross Megahorn vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Cresselia: 120-144 (52.8 - 63.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
well tbf scarf isnt even on 4% of trans, and i think paired with cresselia they would usually opt for a bulkier spread anyway.lol av hera. I will say, clever nom, but take a look at these defensive calcs.
from Choice Scarf Heatran (running max SpA and Modest, the spread that I use):
252+ SpA Heatran Overheat vs. 28 HP / 124 SpD Assault Vest Heracross: 152-180 (95.5 - 113.2%) -- 68.8% chance to OHKO
That is true.well tbf scarf isnt even on 4% of trans, and i think paired with cresselia they would usually opt for a bulkier spread anyway.
That's practically identical to the Azumarill post above.

knock off is not necessary because play rough ohkoes cresselia anyways, but i guess if you want you can run it so you don't miss and can be much safer so it really doesn't matter. heatran will obviously be ohkoed by aqua jet. even if it burns, it's still going to beat heatran most of the time. azumarill can set on both really, as neither of them have a way to power through besides the rare scarf flash cannon predict; but azumarill is really safe!
