It looks like a dead teddy bear! :'(

The only reason to use Ice Punch is Zygarde-C. MSalamence can be handled with your STAB or HP Ice.

If you use HP Ice pick Naive instead of Jolly lol. Even if it's almost useless with Bulk Up+SS7SS.

Unconventional doesn't mean inferior. Are your sets based on any sort of testing? Smogon's sets are based on actual data. Do you have anything tangible that justify Drain Punch over Close Combat? Such as that a certain matchup is improved or what not

This set is able to OHKO Landorus Therian, a common Uber trap setter by picking out it's huge flaw of being x4 weak to Ice. Hidden Power Ice works on my second set, but the extra Special Attack investment will catch them off guard.

Fun fact:
252 Atk Marshadow Soul-Stealing 7-Star Strike vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Landorus-Therian: 337-397 (105.6 - 124.4%) -- guaranteed OHKO
4 SpA Life Orb Technician Marshadow Hidden Power Ice vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Landorus-Therian: 374-442 (117.2 - 138.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Why should Xerneas use ZGeomancy in front of Marshadow? ...

This is what you are requested to give when posting st in Competitive Pokemon Moveset and Competitive Pokemon Discussion for your choices, hoping it makes sense. It's not a question of Smogon's rules or nonconformism, but logic: if st is senseless it's not competitive, and so it doesn't need to be tested. Sorry for BoThErInG you.
