M-Heracross is a very potent wallbreaker in OU that was always a bit underrated, and it's a great Pokémon on both Sand and Rain teams because of it's ability to destroy bulky Grass types that are troublesome for these types of teams. If running Bullet Seed, it can also get past bulky Waters that can also be threatening. Meanwhile, Kabutops and Excadrill are powerful Swords Dance users that are also very fast in their respective weathers. This core is annoyed by M-Alakazam, because it can Trace their abilities and outspeed them even in the rain/sand and it can also beat M-Heracross if it's not behind a Substitute. It's good to note that Zam can't switch into Heracross too.
