Espathra @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Speed Boost
EVs: 252 HP / 212 Def / 44 Spe
IVs: 0 Atk
Timid Nature
- Calm Mind
- Stored Power
- Dazzling Gleam / Substitute
- Roost
This ratite is raring to go! Speed Boost and Calm Mind turns Espathra into an increasingly dangerous sweeper that can snowball through entire teams. Stored Power rapidly gains power and lets it break past Unaware users such as Clodsire, making Espathra progressively more difficult to wall. Dazzling Gleam hits Dark-types, such as Greninja and Hydreigon. Substitute makes it easier for Espathra to set up and makes it difficult to dispatch in a last Pokemon scenario. Roost keeps Espathra healthy throughout a match and enables it to acquire multiple Calm Mind boosts to sweep. 44 Speed EVs ensures Espathra outspeeds Dragapult after one turn with Speed Boost. The remaining EVs are poured into HP and Defense to enable Espathra to set up as much as possible. Espathra appreciates dual screens support from Scream Tail, as it eases setup considerably. Hatterene and Gallade are good partners for Espathra that can deal with Dark-types. Armarouge is a teammate that can handle Steel-types. Finally, Indeedee can provide Psychic Terrain support to boost Stored Power, switch into Ghost-type attacks, and offer Healing Wish support.
