Major Threats?
The new major threats are the return of the Genies along with Heat Wave Zappy bird. The genies played a major part in VGC13 and are looking to do so again in VGC15. The obvious old school Choice scarfed Lando needs to be stopped so it can't go on a rampage like it did last time around.

Cresselia is now easier to prevent because Tailwind pokemon have become more ideal and better to handle the situation with Icy Wind. They 90% of the time are Calm Minders and Trick rooms so a Taunt and 2 STAB Dark pulses along with a 2nd pokemon doubling up into that slot. Cresselias also run Leftovers so a Knock off would be really nice to see slapping them.

There are some big combos I am now seeing. My favorite being Swift Swim Protect Swampert paired with Drizzle Politoad. Swampert can be maxed out in attack and be ready to outspeed your team and then just hammer down on everybody along with the 3rd person to make a trio being Ludicolo. Nobody really knows much about it as of now but is without a doubt something to look out for.

The old school Twave Prankster Thundurus paired with Scarf Lando I already have began to see comeback. So bring out the safeguard pokemon to stop it! Whismicott is the really nice play for this because without needing to max out speed EVs in him he outspeeds Max Speed Thundurus.

Cresselia and Mega Camerupt is a MASSIVE threat to the new meta also. Trick room with Mega Camerupt I see is becoming very popular even with Cybertron Zheng now using it in his most recent YT upload. If you can stop the Trick room from happening and have any water move that Camerupt is a OHKO every time due to x4 weakness. I think a Pairing with Drought on top of it then TR and Camerupt come in would be crazy OP for fire moves. So watch out for that!
