What it does: This Scraggy's role is to come in after one of your Pokemon faints, set up a Dragon Dance, and proceed to start attacking things with your move of choice. Drain Punch is your main STAB option, denting most things that aren't resistant to it after 1 or 2 boosts. Eviolite makes Scraggy quite bulky, bulky enough in fact to survive an Acrobatics from Fletchling from Full Health, while hitting Fletchling back with a Drain Punch. Knock Off is your second STAB, and the advantage of the opponent not having an item is very nice. Knock Off is also a good option if the opposing Poke resists Drain Punch, or is Ghost Type. Poison Jab has the ability to hit Cottonee 4x super effectively, if you can predict it switching in. Zen Headbutt is for Croagunk and other poison types, as they wall Scraggy entirely without it, and it's also nice if you want to hit other Fighting Types for Super Effective damage. Shed Skin is for statuses, as Burn and Paralyze, as Scraggy is near-useless if it has a status. However, if you don't fear status ailments and want more power, Moxie is the preferred option.

Good Teammates: Fairy Types give Scraggy heaps of trouble. Cottonee can use Priority Encore after Scraggy uses Dragon Dance (although if you predict the switch, Cottonee falls to Poison Jab), and Spritzee can switch in and K.O. Scraggy with Moonblast (Spritzee does not take that much from Poison Jab, despite being weak to Poison). Therefore, a Poison-type such as Foongus or Koffing would be a good choice for a Teammate to remove Fairy types from the opposing team. Additionally, while Scraggy has the ability to survive an Acrobatics from Fletchling at Full Health, Scraggy is very prone to being revenge-killed afterwards. Thus, a Flying-Type-Counter such as Chinchou, Tirtouga, or Archen would be an excellent choice to pair with Scraggy.

What Counters It: The aforementioned Fairy Types give Scraggy a lot of trouble. Fletchling isn't necessarily a "Counter", but it makes a nice Check as it can put the hurt Scraggy with its Priority Acrobatics. Certain Pokemon that utilize Choice Scarf (such as the rare Choice Scarf Gastly and Doduo) can K.O. Scraggy.

Any Additional Info: A set utilizing Choice Scarf and Moxie is also very viable. The immediate 1.5x speed that Choice Scarf offers is very nice, and after a few Moxie boosts, not many Pokemon can survive Scraggy's attacks. Fake Out can be used over Poison Jab, but inferior, and is not recommended. High Jump Kick can be used instead of Drain Punch, however you it is victim to untimely misses and then a subsequent loss of 50% of your health.  Additionally, High Jump Kick does not heal you for any damage you deal, unlike Drain Punch. Yet a 130 Base Power STAB move is very dangerous after one or two boosts, and it can very easily let Scraggy sweep a weakened team.
