Choice Scarf
########
name: Choice Scarf
move 1: Volt Switch
move 2: Hidden Power Fire
move 3: Flash Cannon
move 4: Thunderbolt
ability: Magnet Pull
item: Choice Scarf
evs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
nature: Timid

Moves
========

Volt Switch is a useful source of momentum for Magnezone, especially with a Choice Scarf. Hidden Power Fire is used in the second slo to 2HKO both Ferrothorn and Scizor, which Magnezone can trap with Magnet Pull and eliminate for its teammates. Flash Cannon serves as a consistent secondary STAB move that is useful for hitting Fairy-types super effectively and providing neutral coverage on Ground- and Dragon- types, which otherwise give Magnezone a hard time. Finally, Thunderbolt is used in the last slot for stronger Electric-type STAB.

Set Details
========

Choice Scarf allows Magnezone to surprise the opponent potentially, as its otherwise quite slow, and be a great cleaner late-game with STAB moves off its enormous base 130 Special Attack. It can also serve as a decent revenge killer to some Pokemons such as Mega Pinsir, Thundurus, and Talonflame. Maximum Special Attack investment is used to make the most of Magnezone's great base 130 Special Attack. Maximum Speed EVs with a boosting nature and a Choice Scarf allow Magnezone to outspeed everything slower than Thundurus, which is the majority of the unboosted tier. It also outspeeds non-Jolly Talonflame, which makes Magnezone a good check to teams that are centered around Flying -types.

Usage Tips
========

Choice Scarf Magnezone is a great late-game cleaner, 2HKOing a good portion of the metagame, and can revenge kill various threats throughout the game. Just like the Choice Specs set, it can also trap opposing Steel- types to help certain sweepers, such as Dragonite, Clefable, Mega Pinsir, and Mega Gyarados, sweep with more ease, though it only actually 2HKOes bulky Mega Scizor and Ferrothorn. Furthermore, Choice Scarf Magnezone can pick off weakened Excadril after sand has ended. Thunderbolt should not be used very often, as Magnezone will be very easily exploited by common Ground-types, such as Excadrill and Landorus-T, if locked into Thunderbolt.

Team Options
========

Pokemons that struggle against bulky Steel-types, such as Dragonite, Mega Pinsir, Staraptor, Excadrill, Mega Tyranitar, Mamoswine, Latias, Mega Gardevoir, and Mega Gyarados, really appreciate Magnezone's support to help them sweep. Magnezone is naturally fit for teams that have issues with said bulky Steel-types. Pokemon that resist moves that Magnezone is weak to, such as Landorus-I, Azumarill, Latias, Landorus-T, and Latios make good partners. Additionally, Stealth Rock users are really helpful, as Stealth Rock can help Magnezone get some important KOs. Finally, Landorus-T is one of the best teammates to Magnezone, forming a VoltTurn core with it, having an immunity to both Fighting- and Ground-type attacks, and also being able to set up Stealth Rock.

Magnet Rise
########
name: Magnet Rise
move 1: Magnet Rise
move 2: Hidden Power Fire
move 3: Flash Cannon
move 4: Thunderbolt
ability: Magnet Pull
item: Air Balloon
evs: 128 HP / 252 SpA / 128 Spe
nature: Modest

Moves
========

Magnet Rise is extremely helpful for Magnezone, making it immune to Ground-type attacks, which it is weak to, for 5 full turns. Hidden Power Fire 2HKOes most Steel- types, such as Mega Scizor, Excadrill, and Ferrothorn, even able to OHKO Mega Scizor after Stealth Rock damage if it doesn't have much Special Defense investment. This is extremely helpful in eliminating Steel- types for teammates to attempt a sweep later, such as Mega Gyarados, Dragonite, Mega Tyranitar, Mega Pinsir, and Staraptor. Finally, Thunderbolt and Flash Cannon serve powerful, consistent moves, covering a wide variety of Pokemon.

Set Details
========

Air Balloon helps Magnezone check Excadrill, as it's too slow to use Magnet Rise before Excadrill attacks and in general gives it a chance against opposing Ground-(types. Maximum Special Attack with a boosting nature maximizes Magnezone's damage output, which is extremely helpful, as it lacks a boosting item. The Speed EVs allow Magnezone to outspeed minimum speed Mega Scizor, while the rest of the EVs are dumped into HP for bulk.

Usage Tips
========

Use this particular set of Magnezone carefully, as switching Magnezone around carelessly can result in losing its Air Balloon, which would result in making Magnezone unable to trap Excadrill later. Unless you are completely confident that Excadrill will use Earthquake, do not switch Magnezone directly in; instead, sack something and then send out Magnezone.

Team Options
========

This Magnezone set is most appreciated by teams that struggle with Excadrill, as it can trap it, removing the threat and allowing Magnezone's team to keep up its hazards. This is really helpful, as there aren't many viable spinblockers in the tier and none of them can spinblock Excadrill. Furthermore, Pokemon that struggle against bulky Steel-types, such as Dragonite, Latias, Mega Gardevoir, Mega Pinsir, Staraptor, Excadrill, Mega Tyranitar, Mamoswine, and Mega Gyarados, really appreciate Magnezone's support, which can also help them sweep later. Additionally, Pokemon that resist moves that Magnezone is weak to are really appreciated. Also, as this set effectively checks Excadrill, entry hazard setters can be slapped on the team to support other members of the team, including Magnezone; for example, non-specially defensive Mega Scizor has a good chance of being OHKOed by Hidden Power Fire after Stealth Rock damage. Finally, Landorus-T is one of the best teammates to Magnezone, forming a VoltTurn core with it, being immune to both Fighting- and Ground- type attacks, and setting up Stealth Rock.

This may be very minor, but one thing I would change is the opening of the overview. As a steel trapper, Magnezone has literally no competition, unless Magneton starts becoming good. I definitely wouldn't say it faces competition from other electric types, since Magnezone is a trapper, Zapdos is BO defogger, Manectric is a speedy attacker w/ intimidate, raikou can run AV, lefties + cm, and Choice specs effectively, thundurus-i can use Nasty Plot + priority taunt and twave, thundurus-t can double dance, rotom-w and rotom-h are defensive, and ampharos is either defensive or uses agility. There's very little competition among the electric types in ou. However, definitely don't remove

However, luckily for Magnezone, magnets are magnetic.

That line is gold.

Also, are you doing a Magnezone revamp or just adding two sets? If it's the former, then I guess ignore what I said, since analyses of individual sets don't need an overview or checks and counters, since they're just added to the analysis. However, since I kinda find the overview a bit too negative, maybe just go for a full revamp and add the specs set before the scarf set? idk for sure.

Otherwise the info for the scarf set looks solid to me! I'd like to know what the EVs for the magnet rise set are for, but I'm sure that will come :)

Yeah true, tbh I stole it from Magnezone's previous analyses (done by magnemite :]) but I'll definitely change the Overview to a more positive side since Magnezone has been really popular/good lately and because metagame shifts, well if I had the chance

adding 2 sets, Specs is good as it is. Oh I'm quite new to this, but yeah I will remove Overview and Checks & Counters.

Well outspeeding no speed skarm :]

Well, I'll leave this to QC if they want a complete revamp, since overview is a bit negative (as I mentioned before zone is p good and facing a bit less competition lately) and because maybe speed EV's need is outdated? Most skarms run speed evs for Taunt and outspeeding skarm has no merit, so imo make it to outspeed mega scizor or drop it to outspeed t-tar / standard azu. I do also feel like from the previous analysis "specially defensive walls" are not really a check nor a counter to Magnezone, other than Chansey literally nothing viable can avoid being 2HKO-d by the Specs set (except quag, which is not a SpD wall). Also OO needs an update imo.

 

[aim]

Should add Pinsir as a teammate since Magnezone traps Skarmory,giving Pinsir an easier time at breaking a team

 

[Berserking Now]

Mega Gardevior should be mention under team options for Magnezone since it absorbs fighting type moves and appreciates Magnezone's ability to trap Ferrothorn, Mega Scizor, and Bronzong.

 

[Jukain]

balloon set should be evd to outrun mega scizor.

there needs to be more partners mentioned. like aim said, pinsir, but also like: staraptor, excadrill, megatar, mamoswine that are walled by skarm and/or ferro.

the team options sorta needs to emphasize that zone needs a clear purpose to be worth running. you should be running at least 2 if not more mons that can capitalize on zone otherwise it's not worth it.

definitely mention specific quake pivots particularly speaking for the scarf set, as air balloon has slightly less issues. landt is a really good one, it can voltturn with mag creating a lot of momentum for the team and eats up the ground sweepers that get in its way.

 

[trc]

seconding jukain on the team options, think pinsir, diggersby, heracross (makes it a lot easier), etc.

 

[RufflesPro]

Implemented everything, included Landorus-T as a specific team member to Mag.

I believe this is QC ready. Gonna tag some members. aim, Jukain, Nog, BKC, Valentine, Dice

Final questions for QC:

Is running enough speed to outspeed Mega Scizor really viable? The specs set didn't, Mega Scizor will BP if it wants to break Balloon, Knock Off doesn't do too much, and Mega Scizor doesn't really carry U-turn (if it did, it survives an HP Fire as long as it's full HP, and the more SpD investment it has the more it can survive an HP Fire after rocks) and if anything, I would use Magnet Pull then 2HKO w/ HP Fire (or HP fire, Magnet pull, then HP Fire)

I would personally use 44 Speed on the Air Balloon set, since it otuspeeds uninvested base 65s, including Scizor, Tyranitar, and standard Azu. But I'll leave this to QC.

Secondly, I wonder if Specs Analytic is worthy of a set, 2HKOs entire tier (w/ HP grass) except Chansey and Ferrothorn, gonna leave it there.

Finally, I wonder if I should do a revamp, after going over the previous analysis, it's speed EVs are wrong (factoring HP Fire it only speed ties with Skarm) and pretty much outdated since there is nothing to gain from outspeeding Skarm, while OO and Checks & Counters need an update. A little nitpick: overview is a little negative for a pokemon that is this good in the meta.

 

[aim]

If you wanna do Choice Specs i'd still run HP Fire just for Ferrothorn. I don't really like specs much though as I feel scarf zone gets the job done and checks birds while doing so. Anyway the scarf set and air balloon set look good. 1/3

Thanks!

But I think you misunderstood, there's already a Specs Magnet Pull set (I'm not doing revamp), I'm talking about a Specs Analytic. But if you mean even this needs HP Fire then sorry nvm first statement.

Need more QC opinions on this.

 

[aim]

Yeah haha i was talking about using HP fire on specs analytic lol

 

[RufflesPro]

This is finally written up for the last 2 QC checks :]

 

[trc]

you write it up after 2 checks but since no one expects you to revert it I guess there can be an exception if you remember next time oO

lol well I learned something new - no srsly sorry lol keep making dem mistakes :/

 

[Jukain]

mention that flash cannon also hits lati@s

mention that scarf hp fire lets you trap weakened exca if you time it right

4 hp evs -> def for a better hazards hp number on scarf, also mention that it misses out on most sd talonflame which run jolly, this is very significant

throw in gard in team options as it likes the removal of mega scizor and ferrothorn (fuck relying on focus blast), allowing it to run like hp ground to get through heatran with more reliability and other options like sub, wisp, wish/hw, etc can more easily fit into its moveset. also lati@s.

approved 2/3

In neither of your set details do you explain what magnet pull does.

"Pokemon that resist moves that Magnezone is weak to, such as Ground, Fighting, and Fire, make for good partners" do you mind mentioning some??? Since so many of your offensive partners do this too, work something out.

Lando-t is not fighting immune.

Why 4 def evs on the scarf set? Explain.
