Recommendations on a set? [Charizard X VGC]

[LegendaryCHEERIOS]

Can anyone recommend a set for Charizard X in VGC? Help would be much appreciated c:

Charizard X in VGC is interesting. On one hand, given proper support, it can do well. On the other, Chaizard Y is more designed for VGC. I would recommend running Dragon Dance with Flare Blitz, Dragon Claw, and Protect. You really want a Follow Me pokemon beside you. Maybe Amoongus. It can Spore opponents to give you extra time.

Oh okay. Can you provide a EV spread so I can base my EVS off of that? c:

I tried making a VGC team around Charizard X last night. This is the set I ended up with after a bit of testing:

Charizard @ Charizardite X
Ability: Blaze
Level: 50
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Protect
- Dragon Dance
- Flare Blitz
- Rock Slide

I liked the idea of a DD Tough Claws-boosted Rock Slide, although you lose the option of running Dragon Claw or Earthquake. This set needs redirection support which I used Togekiss for. I also used Icy Wind Milotic and Thundurus for speed control.
