Ekans (M) @ Black SludgeAbility: IntimidateEVs: 112 HP / 252 Atk / 144 SpDAdamant Nature- Earthquake- Rock Slide- Coil- Glare

Edit: The first move-set I had sucks. Intimidate helps with defensive ability and allows Ekans to set up with Coil / Glare. Glare slows the opponent down, while Coil is Bulk Up + Accuracy boost. Earthquake has a 5 type coverage, and Rock Slide hits flyers, as well as has the Para-Flinch hax possibility. No STAB, mainly because Poison sucks as a type for coverage. EVs give this thing some defensive bulk, and max Attack to be exploited with Coil.

Snake (Ekans) @ Leftovers / Assault VestAbility: IntimidateTera Type: Flying / DarkEVs: 185 HP / 144 Spe / 4 SpD / 139 Atk / 36 DefAdamant Nature- Earthquake- Leech Life- Coil / Gunk Shot- Trailblaze

Leftovers if you wanna heal (since Tera will remove poison so Black Sludge isn’t so great) or Assault Vest since it boost your SpD. Intimidate to protect its low Defense. Tera Flying for ground immunity or Tera Dark for Psychic Immunity. Adamant Nature to power up its attack. Earthquake since it is got some great power. Leech Life for coverage against Psychic types. Coil if you didn’t choose Assault Vest, Gunk Shot if you did. Trailblaze to boost its Speed and coverage against Ground types.
