Charizard is a lot better at special attacks. As well as having a higher special attack stat, hurricane is more powerful than its physical flying moves, and flare blitz’s recoil makes it more difficult to sweep. This is the moveset I would recommend.

Charizard needs roost and heavy-duty boots because choice specs still doesn’t allow it to get enough OHKOs. It forces a lot of opponents to switch, which makes it one of the best defoggers in the format.sourcesource
