Technichan Set
Name:Smokomodo

move 1:Flare Blitz
move 2:Earthquake/Poison Jab
move 3:Mach Punch
move 4:Bulk Up
item:Leftovers
ability:Techinican
nature:Adamant
evs:252 Atk/252 Speed/Hp 4
[The goal here is to bulk up and sweep]
Set Details
Max attack and Max Speed is used because it can be hard for it to survive attacks with low sp.def. It's role is for it to be a wallbreaker/sweeper of the team. Earthquake is an amazing move that can hit lots of threats in the metagame super effectively including stratagem and Cyclocym. And earthquake even hits neutral threats hard due to being STAB. Teamates like Miasmaw and other bug types like Aurumoth really appreciate his STAB flare blitz hitting enemies they cannot. Mach Punch is used to take advantage of technichan while killing foes like Scyclant or Stratagem who have the speed advantage. He is very vunerable to snaelstrom who completely shuts him down before setting up but teamates like Aurumoth and Stratagem can really help with that.
Poison Jab is used to hit fairies like Tapu Fini and Kerfluffle

[He takes a bit of skill to utilize and can't recklessly switch in]
Checks and Counters
===================
*Special attackers*: Fast special attackers like Aurumoth can kill him pretty quickly and even slower ones like Cyclocym can do a number on him.
**Bulky Water Types**:Bulky Water types can OHKO him with one scald so he must beware of them. Also he has mostly nothing for them other than thunder punch or poison jab for fini.

Many of the choices here and examples give make it seem like ya haven't run the mon at a super high level. Eg listing Stratagem as an Earthquake target, as well as almost every example given being a CAP. I'm going to QC reject this for now.
