...yes the last two moves would definitely work better the other way around wouldn't they. Sorry, this is what happens when I have to actually use my brain, it's not always reliable.
I'd definitely take Aerial Ace over Night Slash on a mixed Honchkrow just because can't miss and real lack of available stronger Flying moves. Sucker Punch and Heat Wave would certainly work with a Choice Scarf, if something's surviving multiple turns getting beat to death by a 80 power STAB priority physical attack from a big burly bird like Honchkrow something is going horribly wrong, but Substitute would absolutely not and Superpower I just picked at random I guess???
The other options are pretty much just perfect as is anyway though. A Nasty Plot Honchkrow is a no-brainer and your physical options are all just a matter of "what the heck do I want my Dark attack to DO?" Personally? Sucker Punch and Payback are really nice options but they'll take much more careful planning and thought to implement, and the former might just require some X Item stalling tactics occasionally, Night Slash is just nice and reliable. So maybe that's your one-two combo.
The irony is that you could swap Superpower and Heat Wave/Psychic between your Special/Physical builds and have basically the same utility because of how balanced Nimbly is.
Good lord, remember when Nimbly's problem was a lack of viable moves and now here we are struggling to pick just four? Good on ya, bird.
