252+ Atk Life Orb Talonflame Brave Bird vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Greninja: 282-333 (98.9 - 116.8%) -- 93.8% chance to OHKO
And Greninja is really the only thing you have that can effectively deal with it. It would also be helpful to know what format you intend to play, because what is good for one format may not be good for another.
I put thunder punch onto dragon it for a second coverage of talonflame.
Maybe I could add a rock slide onto mamoswine for even more coverage?
Rock Slide is usually a good idea to have somewhere on a team. Assuming that you're playing VGC, you definitely want to have some spread moves at your disposal, along with Protect, which has already been touched upon by others.
I was thinking about adding protect to mega venasaur so I could protect when I use earthquake with mamoswine. That way there's a way to stop the damage being dealt. Is that a decent strategy or would it be better placed upon a different pokemon?
