    • I've been using HP Flying Thundurus on a OU team with Arcanine (just for fun, because I've decided to not play OU seriously until the release of Sun and Moon) and I found out it's surprisingly effective at screwing opposing cores up. From some of my ladder battles here are a bunch of logs:

    - it has enough power to 2HKO Garchomp in combo with Focus Miss
    - it 2HKOes Lando-T after rocks
    - in conjunction with Volt Switch and rocks it can easily pressure the likes of Lati@s, since Thundurus is faster and does around 42% to Latios
    - does more dmg than HP Ice to Tangrowth and Amoonguss (Mega Venu is crap, but 2HKOing it is a small plus too)
    - with HP Flying > HP Ice Thundurus is less prone to prediction games, especially since electric-types are really starting to suck in this meta, especially Mega Manectric
    - Mega Altaria is crap now
    - Mega Heracross is rising in usage, and so is Breloom

    This is the team, if you're wondering.
    Spoiler:


    What do you think, is HP Flying Thundurus better in this meta than the variant with HP Ice?


    On a side note, I'm really loving the current meta. Electric-types are starting to suck. Fairy-types are starting to suck.
