[OVERVIEW]
Honchkrow is a hard threat in RU it´s good attack in both classes and it´s good move coverage makes it a strong and consistent pick. Its´s acceptable speed base of 71 makes ist outspeed 70 base Pokemon like Cloyster and Hoopa, it outspeeds uninvested 100 speed base pokemon. Sucker Punch gives Honchkrow acces to one of the best dark-type moves. Many walls are threatened by its good coverage which also can force mind games and make it hard switching in to it. The weak defense stats make it vulnerable to many attackers

Moves
========
Dark Pulse is the most stable special attack from Honchkrow and provides a good STAB
it is meant to surprise the enemy in particular. The damage made by it is good to burst through walls like Bronzong, Torkoal, Quagsire and special defensive Cresselia with a two hit and bulky Decidueye with a roll. It can one shot and out speed Hoopa, Mega-Banette and unboosted Cloyster.
Heat Wave is against Avalugg, Steelix and Tsareena but is a good option against Bewear and Registeel too. Due to the many fire weaknesses in the Tier ist is a Stable Move.
Psychic can be used to pressure Nidoqueen, Kommo-o and Roserade to kill them two shot. It can even force mind games with Meloetta but in this case it is likely to be a win situation.
Sucker Punch can be used to confuse the enemy and clean the team from behind at the and. It provides a strong priority and pressures once you are +1 on attack.
