Brave Nature
- Darkest Lariat

- U-turn
- Fake Out

Incineroar can eat any hit that rotom wants to go for incineroar also hits it back with a fire blast dealing massive amounts of damage and having a chance to kill after rocks

It's been more than 24 hours since it was reserved, so I'm stealing this.


Guzzlord @ Choice Specs
Ability: Beast Boost
EVs: 252 SpA / 196 SpD / 60 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Draco Meteor
- Dark Pulse
- Sludge Bomb
- Fire Blast / Flamethrower

While it can't prevent the thing which makes fighting Rotom-C as dumb as it is (Volt Switch's pivoting effect), Guzzlord's ability to take hits from it with ease means that Rotom-C can't really do much in the way of breaking while Guzz is still around. This means that it can help rack up SR damage to keep Rotom-C under pressure and to hopefully help wear it down a bit as it spams Volt Switch.

GOGOD (Gogoat) (M) @ Groundium Z
Ability: Sap Sipper
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SpD
Careful Nature
- Bulk Up
- Horn Leech
- Earthquake
- Milk Drink

Santa's best helper in need! Santa's lawnmower got possesed by the evil Rotom! Gogoat jumps in and takes care of it with it's horns and it's MANLY presence, the evil lawnmower tries to electrocute Santa's helper but Gogoat says hell no
252 SpA Choice Specs Rotom-Mow Thunderbolt vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Gogoat: 78-92 (17.3 - 20.4%) -- possible 5HKO
and just sets up on it and even when Gogoat is low it will just drink some milk to get health back. The last attack it can do is
252 SpA Choice Specs Rotom-Mow Hidden Power Flying vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Gogoat: 140-166 (31.1 - 36.8%) -- 74.4% chance to 3HKO
but even then it is not enough to deal with Gogoat. Last thing that the evil lawnmower can do is give Gogoat it's glasses but Gogoat isn't impressed and says hell no i'm not blind and this is my crystal go away what makes it not able to work. Not much to say about GOGOD then I already did.

you wall it and can chip it slowly with wisp and pain split. If they switch out you can volt switch. If they trick you it kinda sucks but they still do negative damage

Since RU finally let our lord and savior MAudino drop back down, I'd be remiss to not run audinolix cores on every team.
Fblast 2hkos/murks lix switch ins, while it can wishprotect stall blizzards/flash cannons. If you run it with lix, it switches in on flash cannons and gets free rocks, which is nice. Fblast is prob interchangeable with CM, but then it loses to lix.

4 SpA Audino-Mega Fire Blast vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Vanilluxe: 138-164 (48.7 - 57.9%) -- 95.3% chance to 2HKO

Probopass @ Air Balloon
Ability: Magnet Pull
EVs: 172 HP / 252 SpA / 84 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Earth Power
- Stealth Rock
- Magnet Rise / Volt Switch
- Power Gem

Probopass is an underrated pick in the current metagame who takes advantage of the Ice-type resistance that it has over Steelix alongside its superb mixed bulk to consistently keep Vanilluxe in check; the listed set is, imo, the best variant in the current metagame; 84 Spe allows it to outrun uninvested base 50s and below, allowing it to trap uninvested Mawile (hits before it can Super Fang and almost always OHKOs w/ SR+1 Spike assuming no SpD investment), whereas Power Gem allows it to actually take advantage of its ability to check Ice-types, almost always KOing the listed Vanilluxe variant after SR. Magnet Rise is preferred so that Probopass can trap more SpD-invested Steelix variants as well as easing prediction if it switches in on Heavy Slam or Gyro Ball, but Volt Switch is also an option which helps Probopass be a little less of a momentum sap by taking advantage of switches it forces vs the Pokemon that it checks like Vanilluxe.

252+ SpA Choice Specs Vanilluxe Blizzard vs. 172 HP / 0 SpD Probopass: 93-109 (30.5 - 35.8%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Stealth Rock and hail damage
252+ SpA Probopass Power Gem vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Vanilluxe: 210-248 (74.2 - 87.6%) -- 87.5% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock

I in no way advocate the use of this mon, this is just in the name of fun. A-Slash rises back from the grave to resist Vanilluxe's STAB 4x and proceed to outspeed in Hail to scare it out with an Iron Head, which does not even guarantee to kill it from full (lol).

Granbull



With fairy typing and Intimidate for an ability its the perfect counter for Pokemon like scrafty, even with Z-Iron Tail being ran on almost every scrafty set Granbull still counters Scrafty.
Here are some calcs for a 1v1 scenario and for switching in on Scrafty:

1+ attack due to Dragon Dance

252 Atk Scrafty Iron Tail vs. 248 HP / 252+ Def Granbull: 146-174 (38.1 - 45.4%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
Z-move 252 Atk Scrafty Iron Tail vs. 248 HP / 252+ Def Granbull: 264-312 (68.9 - 81.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Neutral attack (unboosted)

-1 252 Atk Scrafty Iron Tail vs. 248 HP / 252+ Def Granbull: 100-118 (26.1 - 30.8%) -- guaranteed 4HKO
Z-move -1 252 Atk Scrafty Iron Tail vs. 248 HP / 252+ Def Granbull: 178-210 (46.4 - 54.8%) -- 59% chance to 2HKO

And to note Granbull can defeat Scrafty in one hit with its 4 times effective move Play Rough:

0 Atk Granbull Play Rough vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Scrafty: 408-480 (150.5 - 177.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Passimian @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Receiver
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Close Combat
- U-turn
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide

Hitmonlee works too due to it being stronger, but I've been using Passimian on a hazard stack VoltTurn this week so I thought why not post it instead, and it just feels like a rlly solid+consistent 'mon in general vs offensive teams; that and this has the option of taking advantage of switches it forces vs Scrafty due to U-turn.

Passimian is able to very consistently revenge kill +1 Scrafty with a Choice Scarf set, OHKOing it regardless of its health; Passimian is able to very consistently put offensive teams (the type that Scrafty is typically found on) under a lot of pressure between VoltTurning around and the raw power of CC vs neutral targets. Provided that it is paired with something that can take advantage of offensive CC resists like Whimsicott it is pretty set.
Edit: On mobile, can't seem to get image to work :/


It's rlly easy to get sprites if you just use the Pokemon Showdown! sprites archive.
Code:

Replace Delphox with the Pokemon in question (omit spaces for tapus e.g. tapukoko; spell out full forme name e.g. rotom-mow)

Vs. Plume:
+2 252 Atk Scrafty Knock Off vs. 248 HP / 252+ Def Vileplume: 133-157 (37.6 - 44.4%)
+2 252 Atk Scrafty Corkscrew Crash (180 BP) vs. 248 HP / 252+ Def Vileplume: 243-287 (68.8 - 81.3%)

Vs. Scrafty:
0 SpA Vileplume Moonblast vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Scrafty: 264-312 (97.4 - 115.1%) -- 81.3% chance to OHKO


Poisonium-z vileplume can abuse the z-item to dodge knockoff damage, while Moonblast OHKOs back easily. Even if Scrafty is able to set up to +2, it still fails to beat plume, which can just synthesis up in its face, and OHKO the turn after. Not much more to say, but this is one of the harder counters to the mon, even if the set is outdated.
