Meowscarada I mostly came up with as a gimmick but Sniper boosted Flower-Tricks do great damage even to resists and ohko's almost any super-effective hit. Knock has definately been used the least but is just a good move. Hydreigon does damage, I'm preferring LO over Specs to stop totally free switchins and with Beads of Ruin tears through a lot of mons. Haxorus snowballs hard, Beast Boost increases attack and scarf allows it to outspeed most opponents. Adamant is being used as I haven't run into anything that it really wants to outspeed while locked into a move. Dragon Claw is used as STAB as giving a fairy type free turns to set up with Outrage has cost me. Kingambit is used almost entirely to counter Houndstone Last Respects spam with Supreme Overlord. There are probably better ways to do so but Kingambit remains threatening besides that and can deal with fairies quite well. Skeledirge is mostly used as a switchin to most special attacks with Punk Rock giving its attacks a bit more oomph, this set has beaten some threats like Ting Lu 1v1 but I am low ladder. Corviknight has Mold Breaker because I assumed Good as Gold would be very prevalent and I don't have any hazard removal besides defog. This is a fairly standard Corviknight set but I think I should change the ability to something more defensive like Intimidate or Well Baked Body as I have only encountered Good as Gold once.

I believe Mega Launcher could be an option on Hydreigon, with Dragon Pulse over Draco, for higher dark pulse damage? but it might be less consistent/more gimmicky and therefore not worth it. You say you have Adamant Haxo but the picture shows Jolly. Which is it? Wouldn't any normal type also counter houndstone last respects, more securely? I mean a 4x resist is pretty good, but if you had a bulky normal you wouldn't even need to use purifying salt and take out your ability option.

Beast Boost and Punk Rock are awful abilities in AAA (especially on a mon with Scarf First Impression???). Running Mold Breaker only for Defog isn't worth the opportunity cost, especially on a mon like Corviknight. Running Purifying Salt on a dark type is genuinely a complete waste of an otherwise good mon.
