Here are two boxes containing the most common Z-Move users. For the sake of brevity, only Pokemon that are OU by tiering or at least B rank on VR have been listed. There are dozens of more niche Z-move users not listed here. Refer to smogon analyses to see why they are good. Note that Azumarill, Blacephalon and Keldeo are far worse than other OU Pokemon and are only OU due to being spammed incessantly on low ladder. All movesets and EV spreads are taken from Smogon analyses.https://pokepast.es/34efd5834b54f7e1https://pokepast.es/bc8c7de82b96a1c2
