I think that's stupid. Really, soon enough someone will post things like:

Rampardos @ Choice Band
Adamant/Mold Breaker
252Atk/252Spe/4HP
Head Smash
Earthquake
Zen Headbutt
Superpower

Really, sets like that would be uncounterable. It 2HKOs the best 252/252 walls (Slowbro, Claydol, Quagsire, Shuckle, Regirock and a lot of others) and those can't hope to outspeed and OHKO him due to lack of Speed investment.
NOTE: THIS IS NOT A COUNTER TO ARCANINE, but regardless, just try to counter it. I dare you.
Ok, I'll counter it... with gabite lol. :laugh:

Gabite @ Expert Belt
Impish; Sand Veil
40 HP/152 ATK/252 DEF/64 Speed
Earthquake
Outrage
Fire Fang
Stone Edge

It is guaranteed to survive any of rampardos' attacks, then outspeeds it and gets a guaranteed OHKO with earthquake.

Adamant/Own Tempo
252HP/252Atk/4Def
-Sword Dance
-Return
-Aqua Tail
-Earthquake
I'm asuming this is the next counter...

Drifblim@Wide Lens
Bold/Aftermath
252 HP/252 Def/ 4 SpD
- Rest
- Sleep Talk
- Haze
- Will-o-Wisp

Even a triple swords danced aqua tail will fail to OHKO after being burned and I can stall you out until you die from burn/life orb damage. Wide Lens is to give WoW 82.5% accuracy which I assume is satsifactory for a counter.

If I am breaking any rules sorry; I tried to make sure I didn't.

He can use his respectable SPDef and his neutrality to either of your attacks to come in and set up a stall with ease, and then thunderpunch and leech seed you to the grave.

Sorry if this woudn't work, but this is the Drapion I have right now (Except instead of Fire Fang I have Toxic Spikes)

It would kind of have to get a little luck for the Crit. hit OHKO, but eh.

Just coming in to say that this counter doesn't work. With those EVs, Aggron takes at least 55% from Flamethrower. Also, Moltres' base 90 speed > Aggron's base 50 speed, so Moltres will get the KO on the next turn. Too dumb to come up with an actual counter at the moment.

Seviper can get 2HKO'd when it switches in, and in order to counter, it must be able to survive the switch and kill/threaten. STAB LO Poision Jab fails to OHKO.

Err. Seviper can take one hit, outspeed and do 126% minimum with Poison Jab. It definitely doesn't fail to OHKO.

Also, this doesn't work (Choice Rule) as Sucker Punch can easily be PP-stalled out of by attacking and Synthesis every other turn, and then you Struggle yourself to death.

Also, it still needs to be decided whether Choice just has to be banned as nobody bar a few select people actually know how to use it.

Seviper is the current counter.

Why would I be using Sucker Punch if I have stab poision + outspeed it?

I think I forgot to check "super effective" in the calculator I use, because I was suprised about not seeing it 2HKO. I'll leave it at what you said about being able to OHKO.

----------
14) For Choiced movesets, make sure that ALL moves work against what it's supposed to counter. For example, don't post a Choiced Slaking with Shadow Claw on something like Lopunny, as Shadow Claw would not be able to beat the previous counter.
