Assault Vest Relicanth?

[Mistress Remilia]

Hello everyone, Hope you're good.

So, i was playing peacefully, and i thought about Assault Vest Relicanth.
At first glance, Relicanth seems to be a perfect Pokemon for Assault Vest, with 100/130/65 Bulk, and a fairly decent 90 Attack, alongside with the almighty Head Smash + Rock Head combo.
So i tried this set of Relicanth:

Relicanth @ Assault Vest
Ability: Rock Head
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Head Smash
- Zen Headbutt
- Earthquake
- Waterfall

It was kinda effective to say the least.
But i have a problem with this set. I haven't tried Relicanth before, and a better set may exist.
So i wanted to ask to all of you:

Is AV Relicanth a thing? Is this even reliable?
If no, what should i use instead?

Thanks for the answer!

PS: I'm really sorry for my poor English, hope you'll understand me.

Your Moveset looks like a choice banded relicanth to be honest but im goung to test this out to see if its viable

we dont really like threads on individual pokemon, try the link that alphonse posted. next time you want to make a thread, try talking to Raseri first.

p.s.: welcome to smogon bb

edit: tennisace pls lockerino

yeah threads on individual pokemon dont happen :(, they dont really promote discussion. If you really want to talk about AV relicanth (i dont think its good), we have a thread for assault vest users :)

relicanth doesn't have special bulk even with assault vest.
