Dugtrio

Dugtrio is the epitome of living life in the fast lane. With an outstanding base 120 Speed stat, usable Attack, and access to one of the most lethal abilities in the game in Arena Trap, Dugtrio holds the title of one of the metagame's best revenge killers. However, the Dream World has introduced Shadow Tag Chandelure, a Pokemon that gives Dugtrio quite the literal run for its money when it comes to trapping and revenge killing. Though Chandelure is naturally slower than Dugtrio, its attacking prowess is much higher, allowing it to rip through its trapped foes more easily. Dugtrio, however, retains an important role in a metagame that continues to be dominated by weather—that of a strong weather counter and exceptional ally to rain teams. Dugtrio is able to outpace and destroy opposing Ninetales, Tyranitar, and Abomasnow, allowing rain teams to easily control the weather of a match. With its role as the game's best revenge killer in jeopardy, Dugtrio must rely on its ability to check key threats to retain its usefulness in the Dream World tier.
