Silvally @ Steel Memory
Ability: RKS System
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Anchor Shot
- Shore Up
- Imprison
- Transform
This is my favourite meme. It just beats stuff like Hippowdon, lots of water types, really anything passive enough on the switch. It's also Silvally so it has the advantage of being any type if you like, or just having a lot of surprise factor. The fact that it just ruins a lot of defensive mons 1v1 can really force your opponent's hand sometimes, not to mention it can also do a little bit of damage if need be. Really struggles with Rotom-X though, as it just Volt Switches out.
I love this Silvally set idea - it's so trolly but effective. *claps*
Also, two other sets I thought would be worth sharing - a Minior sweeper set and a silly Cosmoem set.
Minior @ White Herb
Ability: Shields Down
EVs: 228 Atk / 176 SpA / 100 Spe
Rash Nature
- Aeroblast
- Shell Smash
- Diamond Storm
- Earthquake
Have fun winning via crithax! Seriously though, this thing is cool, and Diamond Storm can serve as a buffer against some priority moves, especially FakeSpeed, since Minior can't benefit from Psychic Terrain. Aeroblast is the strongest move by just a hair, but it should probably only be used on physical walls, since Diamond Storm can grab a boost. The EVs outspeed Scarf Pheromosa at +2 in Core form, and everything up to Starmie at +2 in Shields form, which is pretty nice. Even without a boosting item, Aeroblast OHKOs defensive Landorus-T after Stealth Rock, and can even OHKO 160 HP Zygarde with SR and a small amount of residual damage. Diamond Storm 2HKOs specially defensive Skarmory and Celesteela, while Aeroblast 2HKOs physically defensive Skarm. Earthquake covers Heatran and Steels that resist its STABs.
Cosmoem @ Eviolite
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 128 Def / 128 SpD
Bold / Careful Nature
IVs: 0 Atk, 0 SpA, 0 Spe (if Trick Room)
- Magic Coat
- Lunar Dance
- Trick Room / Gravity / Reflect
- Power Split / Light Screen / Rest
Because Psychic has a crazy amount of support moves and Cosmoem is stupidly sturdy (what a fitting ability), this actually kinda works. If you thought Toxapex was bulky, Cosmoem eclipses it, pun intended, at 290 / 495 /495 bulk with this spread and Eviolite, before factoring in nature. First of all, Magic Coat because lol biggest Taunt bait ever. The goal is that hopefully, you'll have 3 turns of Trick Room (probably the best choice), Gravity (RIP T-Arrows), or 3/2 turns of screens to abuse by the time Cosmoem gets KOed or switches, and Cosmoem can potentially set them up several times throughout the match. Lunar Dance basically sacs itself to reuse something actually useful. Power Split can work to gain momentum when used in tandem with Lunar Dance as a pseudo-Memento. You should probably use it because it's the one thing Cresselia can't. If used with a cleric, Rest is an option as the only recovery move available, but it's probably going to be better just suiciding with Lunar Dance in the long run. Plus, Wish support would probably work better for a team like that.
The spread can be tailored to your team to tank certain attacks better, if you're really
I'll just leave this here and go on my way...
