Explanation of Set
Drapion's access to Dragon Dance, as well as its great bulk even with minimal investment, makes it arguably a great pokémon.  Dragon Dance boosts Drapion's attack  and speed to pretty nice levels, especially after a couple of boosts, and is necessary for plowing through the bulkier physical walls. Crunch is a powerful and reliable STAB move that obliterates Ghost-types, such as Cofagrigus, that Drapion can counter excellently, and Earthquake hits the Steel-, Fighting-, and Dark-types that resist Crunch. The fourth move is personal preferance and can be chosen according to your team's needs.
