Venomoth has always been one of my favorite Pokemon, and now that he has Butterfly Dance, which raises his Sp. Attk, Sp. Def, and Speed one stage, he may have more prominence than ever before. His weakness to Stealth Rock is still inhibiting, but with strong resistances to Grass and Fighting, he may be able to find numerous situations to come in and setup. He may even be able to function as a quick, special sponge due to Butterfly Dance, Roost, and his status moves such as Sleep Powder.
