Archeops, the biggest BW non-legend monster.
Archeops (M) @ Flight Gem
Trait: Defeatist
EVs 4 HP / 252 Atk / Spe
Nature: Jolly (+Spe, -Atk)
-Rock Slide / Stone Edge
-Acrobatics
-Earthquake
-Crunch / Dragon Claw
Archeops has base 140 attack and base 110 speed. Those two stats make him the third fastest pokemon in VGC, after Whimsicott and Accelgor. Use Rock Slide or Stone Edge with your preference for STAB coverage. Acrobatics has extremely high power with a STAB, Gem boosted, and can be super effective. If the Flight Gem has been used, Acrobatics still has more power than Rock Slide or Stone Edge. Earthquake for the pesky electrics. Crunch or Dragon Claw can be used for more coverage. His only downside is his ability, Defeatist. It cuts you Attack and Special Attack in half when you HP goes below 1/2 of its regular HP. A good teammate would be someone with skill swap or simple beam to nullify his ability and then bring complete destruction. Another viable move is Quick Guard to stop Aqua Jet, Mach Punch, and Bullet Punch.
