Charizard

Charizard is the fastest BD user, has a great typing with its x4 SR weakness, and has a unique way to out itself with Sunny Day + Solar Power. Its main goal is to either get 2HKO’d by Sub into BD, or BD once and get ready to be switched into SR for the KO on Court Change teams. Sunny Day with Solar Power allows it to take extra damage if it's out of BD range or has Sub Imprisoned, while also giving Charizard an out if it gets Tricked. Snore can prevent it from doing massive Struggle damage if it gets Taunted after a BD, while Protect can be good for scouting and combos with Sun well. Charizard can set up on slower mons but mainly has to worry about fast Taunt users and needing to be behind a Sub to be immune to Heal Pulse. Min defense is for taking max damage from Struggle.
