It's certainly fast, but its attack is decent at best really, and the coverage of moves as you already stated, poison and flying mainly, are pretty poor against a few times ( Steel, Rock and Ground/Rock combo ) but they do hit a fair few neutrally. The speed certainly helps when you lead out with it, or looking to kill something off that you damaged to low. If you get NastyPlot on it can be pretty awesome
nasty plot would be a complete waste considering he gets more attack than special attack, it's simply smarter to focus on physical moves (attack) rather than worry about wasting a turn to build up your special attack.
my crobat doesn't even know any special moves
crobat (fly/cross poison/steel wing/u-turn)
fly/cross poison because they're both physical moves that i get same type attack bonus from, so that's 1.5x multiplier
and steel wing to counter one of my weaknesses (rock), and u-turn for the other (psychic)
his only other weakness would be ice, which isn't too common so i'd say that's a pretty lethal moveset (all physical (attack) based moves)
