[Pros]
- Pure Steel typing sets Registeel apart from other steel types, like Ferrothorn, Kartana and Scizor from being extremely vulnerable to Fire types.
- Solid 80/150/150 defenses lets Registeel be a good user of Body Press and Stealth Rock setter
- Walls a majority of the Tapus and most Fairy types in the tier.
[Cons]
- Has no reliable recovery outside of Rest and Wish support.
- 75 points on each attacking stat, while far from terrible, fails to run an Offensive Set, leaving it vulnerable to Taunt users like Tapu Koko, Heatran and some Spectriers, however, the first two must be wary of Earthquake.
- Registeel sits at a low speed tier, leaving it to sometimes take a hit before it moves
[Potential Movesets]
ChestoRest
Registeel @ Chesto Berry
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Careful Nature
- Body Press
- Iron Defense
- Rest
- Earthquake / Ice Punch / Protect / Toxic / Sleep Talk
Registeel can use its high defense stats to become a slow, but dangerous Body Press sweeper to unprepared teams that lack a Ghost-type. Chesto Berry is the recommended item for this set, but it can also use Leftovers for more recovery. Clear Body is the preffered ability over Light Metal, it makes Registeel inmune to Intimidate, Sticky Webs and other moves that reduce your stats; it also makes Low Kick have lower Base Power. Body Press, with 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD EVs, is used along with Iron Defense and Rest to make Registeel even harder to take down. The fourth moveslot is up to your choice and your team's needs. Earthquake annihilates Heatran, which could othewise completely wall Registeel, and damages other Fire and Electric types. Ice Punch works well with Clear Body to make a 2HKO to Garchomp, both Landorus forms and injure other Ground types. Protect can be used along with Leftovers to give it a free turn to heal, and scout for Choice-locked Pokemon, such as Landorus-T, Galarian Zapdos and Melmetal. Toxic is also viable to annoy Ground and Fire types. Sleep Talk can be used to use another move while being asleep by Rest.
