[SET COMMENTS]
Victini distinguishes itself as a solid Choice Scarf user with effective use of Final Gambit and a respectable offensive presence even while uninvested due to V-create’s infernal strength, capably removing threats from play at a moment’s notice. Trick evaporates the utility of defensive threats like Slowbro and Landorus-T while U-turn takes advantage of Victini’s blazing Speed to place teammates in favorable situations. Near maximum HP investment ensures Final Gambit can KO as many threats as possible and an HP stat indivisible by four, which gives Victini one extra switch in to Stealth Rock, while the Speed EVs allow Victini to potentially revenge kill everything up to and including +1 Volcarona. A spread with Attack EVs and Bolt Strike instead of Final Gambit is an alternative to fully utilize Victini’s offensive potential, but it is less supportive to teammates comparatively. Tera Fire’s boost to V-create turns up the heat of Victini’s revenge killing and removes its weakness to Pursuit - most notably securing the OHKO on Tornadus-T - at the cost of a worse defensive typing against threats such as Tapu Lele and Zamazenta. Wallbreakers such as Weavile and Choice Specs Dragapult appreciate Victini’s pivoting and Final Gambit removing troublesome walls like Toxapex and Zapdos. Similarly, setup sweepers like Zamazenta and Gholdengo can greatly benefit from Trick or Final Gambit being able to impair defensive threats such as Skeledirge and Ting-Lu from stopping their progress. Teammates who can stomach Ground-, Rock- and Water-type attacks such as Gastrodon and Gholdengo can compensate for some of Victini’s defensive shortcomings. Entry hazard removers like of Tornadus-T and Excadrill are also useful to keep Victini’s Final Gambit threatening, crucially maintaining its relevancy in longer matches.
