I don't have anything to say on the Mega Beedril discussion since I haven't played with it yet. I have my own nom for ya'll to discuss.
Nominating Volcarona to A
Volcarona is seriously so good right now. Its defensive set hard checks Mega Scizor, Mega Metagross without electric terrain, Pheromosa, Mega Mawile, Ferrothorn, and at this moment in time it even checks defensive lando-t since it isn't running stone edge right now (this might change soon because people are switching their zard in on lando-t for some reason like it's a good play or something).
Here is a set I have been using:
Volcarona @ Leftovers
Ability: Flame Body
EVs: 236 HP / 152 Def / 120 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Quiver Dance
- Roost
- Giga Drain
- Fiery Dance
This defensive set can take any hit from the above mons and retaliate with a fiery dance to hit back hard. Defensive isn't even the only option for Volcarona either. We all know the Inferno Overdrive set we've seen in SPL. That thing is a monster as well. All in all Volcarona is a solid mon to consider on a team, and definitely is a threat to be considered when team building. Yes it's weak to stealth rocks, but that's what the rest of a team is for.
Here is a replay of the defensive set in action.

Let me know what you think. I'm not nomming this thing to be S-rank. We know it has flaws, but its ability to act as a steel check is definitely needed right now in this meta.
