@FireTaco I'd run Moonblast. Yes, hitting both targets is great, but the damage for Hyper Voice is reduced by 25% in a Double Battle. This is why most double hitting moves are used for chip damage, not for actually knocking out Pokemon. Kommo-o carries Soundproof 90% of the time, so your best bet really is Moonblast.
@Pokeballsohard Forgive me if I sound rude, but I'd like to put my two cents in on your post as well. An 8% chance (9% in the PGL), is about one in ten teams. This, by VGC standards, is very high, and it means you need to start watching out for it. Moreover, Psyshock is simply outclassed by Moonblast in sheer damage output. Kommo-o is not the only dragon in VGC, either. Combined with Salamence, there's a 20% chance of running into a Dragon, not even including any other Dragon Types. However, HP Ice is not a bad option, but if you are already running a Fairy type move, its almost not worth another slot for Dargon coverage.
