Scraggy

Scraggy's unique Dark / Fighting typing gives it access to dual STAB coverage that hits a huge chunk of the LC metagame at least neutrally, which coupled with its fairly high Attack stat turns it into a threatening offensive Pokemon. Scraggy most often opts for a sweeper set, first using Dragon Dance to boost its Attack and patch up its mediocre Speed and then attempting to sweep opposing teams with its STAB attacks and variety of coverage moves. Alternatively, Scraggy can also become a threatening cleaner by using a Choice Scarf. Access to useful STAB moves helps Scraggy take advantage of the coverage that its typing gives it, especially Knock Off, Drain Punch, and High Jump Kick. Scraggy also can use two distinct abilities, both of which assist it in different ways. Moxie makes Scraggy more difficult to beat every time it KOes a foe, while Shed Skin gives it a way to shrug off status and more easily set up on status inducers. However, Scraggy suffers significantly from weaknesses to the common Fairy-, Flying-, and Fighting-types, which leave it often struggling to set up, despite its good defensive stats. Fairy-type Pokemon are especially troublesome, as they resist both of Scraggy's STAB moves. Additionally, though it has access to a wide variety of coverage moves, Scraggy must choose which to use, which means that depending on its set Scraggy can be walled by different Pokemon.
