HURRICANE
DARK PULSE
252 SpA Choice Specs Iron Jugulis Hurricane vs. 252 HP / 252 SpD Venusaur-Mega: 360-426 (98.9 - 117%) -- 93.8% chance to OHKO take note that is max hp max spdef venu
even tho most nerds run phy defensive venu ewwwww id rather run max spa max hp if thats the case ewww bc most of venu types that beat it are special attacking like why are u running phy u weirdo ur not CTC bro
252 SpA Choice Specs Iron Jugulis Earth Power vs. 252 HP / 212+ SpD Heatran: 404-476 (104.6 - 123.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO cant even tera grass on it LOL
252 SpA Choice Specs Iron Jugulis Dark Pulse vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Slowbro: 450-530 (114.2 - 134.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO the core lowkey mid anyways anyways i could make a debate weavile shits on it LOL
Mad respect for iron jugulis why it aint uu or uubl smh
could make a case for being ou
If you decide to pick nidoking knowing that spdef venu is the better evs and hes calcing it with no spdef evs ur special ed and it only 2 hit koing lol
iron jugulis beats the core easier in every way . tapu lele fightium z LOL ok u got me their but with jugulis u dont have to waste a z slot. BIG BRAIN SHIT plus specs jugulis is overkill lol if u look at the calc just showing u how u can run booster energy speed and still shit on it
plus bro calced sludge wave vs tera grass heatran with its spdef evs being lower than my calc and sludge is still only 2 hit koing LOL
THAT BULLSHIT ZAPDOS SET first of all who is running tera ground over tera steel second of all bro running offensive zap over utility its not realistic plus if hes gonna go all the fuck out why is he running boots and not super z strike. just who is wasting a tera ground for heatran when if u look at any sample team with zapdos it has a mon that smacks heatran LIKE BRUH. Plus if they kill lele and psychic terrain is still up just pwoers up slowbro z moves and moves. plus nidoking and zapdos arent immune to slowbros psychic moves. like jugulis

Garganacl @ Leftovers
Ability: Purifying Salt
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 252 HP / 156 Def / 100 SpD
Impish Nature
- Salt Cure
- Earthquake
- Curse
- Recover
Need to tera in order to switch in safely but then neither can touch you:
252 Atk Lopunny-Mega Close Combat vs. 252 HP / 156+ Def Tera Water Garganacl: 130-154 (32.1 - 38.1%)
+2 12 SpA Gholdengo Make It Rain vs. 252 HP / 100 SpD Tera Water Garganacl: 163-192 (40.3 - 47.5%)
Even at +6 gholdengo needs a crit to OHKO:
+6 12 SpA Tera Water Gholdengo Make It Rain vs. 252 HP / 100 SpD Tera Water Garganacl: 326-384 (80.6 - 95%)
+6 12 SpA Tera Water Gholdengo Shadow Ball vs. 252 HP / 100 SpD Purifying Salt Tera Water Garganacl: 219-258 (54.2 - 63.8%)
Once you are in, you can set upon either, gholdengo always takes the extra damage from salt cure even after tera-ing, lopunny gets chipped down with salt + eq.

Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Psyshock / Stored Power
- Shadow Ball
- Calm Mind
- Roost
after a calm mind, you ohko lop with either of your psychic moves. Ghold is 2hko'd by shadow ball and can't set up on you. If rocks are up, there is a chance lop 2hkos with return from full, but it is not safe to come in on you.
Great Tusk @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Close Combat
- Rapid Spin
- Ice Spinner
Doesnt die to bax moves even if it loses speed tie. Even if its at -million defense it can tera out of its weakness.
Ok originally I had Bax here but I think this is much more eloquent
Hoopa-Unbound @ Choice Band
Ability: Magician
Tera Type: Dark
EVs: 40 HP / 252 Atk / 216 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Hyperspace Fury
- Gunk Shot
- Zen Headbutt
- Fire Punch
the idea is that you Hyperspace Fury once,
-252 Atk Choice Band Tera Dark Hoopa-Unbound Hyperspace Fury vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Baxcalibur: 408-482 (109.9 - 129.9%) -- guaranteed OHKO
and then you Hyperspace Fury again,
-252 Atk Choice Band Tera Dark Hoopa-Unbound Hyperspace Fury vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Slowking-Galar: 920-1084 (233.5 - 275.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO
-252 Atk Choice Band Tera Dark Hoopa-Unbound Hyperspace Fury vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Tera Steel Slowking-Galar: 460-542 (116.7 - 137.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO
Adamant Bax sux lol
Gholdengo @ Air Balloon
Ability : Good as gold
Tera Type : Flying
EVs : 4HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
-Nasty plot
-Recover
-Make it rain
-Shadow ball
One of the safer switch ins to Glowking ( even though I did see flamethrower on this one, they usually shouldn't have a reason to click it if this pokemon is pivoted into the feild safely) which covers for most scenarios ( i.e if Glowking uses, future sight, sludge bomb while also not being immediately threatened by bax if that gets chilly receptioned into the feild) and threatens both these pokemon for super effective damage .
252 SpA Gholdengo Shadow Ball vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Slowking-Galar: 182-216 (46.1 - 54.8%) -- 96.9% chance to 2HKO after Stealth Rock and Black Sludge recovery
+2 252 SpA Gholdengo Shadow Ball vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Slowking-Galar: 360-426 (91.3 - 108.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO after Stealth Rock
0 SpA Slowking-Galar Flamethrower vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Gholdengo: 152-180 (48.2 - 57.1%) -- 91% chance to 2HKO
0 SpA Slowking-Galar Future Sight vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Gholdengo: 75-89 (23.8 - 28.2%) -- 93.6% chance to 4HKO
as you can see gholdengo handily gets off a nasty plot while living flamethrower possibly into future sight and threatens for a guarenteed KO on slowking ( guarenteed with rocks or minimal chip damage via a stray U-turn ) .
252 Atk Tera Dragon Baxcalibur Glaive Rush vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Gholdengo: 148-175 (46.9 - 55.5%) -- 75% chance to 2HKO
+2 252 SpA Gholdengo Make It Rain vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Tera Dragon Baxcalibur: 451-532 (121.5 - 143.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO
While this does threaten to revenge kill gholdengo with earthquake , you can always terastilize fly to evade that if you want to save gholdengo for later on . And the Make it rain calc is set to +2 bcuz Gholdengo moves after Baxcaliburr is under Glaive rush influence ( i.e takes double damage from incomming hit ) .

Ability: Intimidate
Tera Type: Ground
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- U-turn
- Earthquake
- Stone Edge
- Grass Knot
Most people opt for defensive lando but usually i run either scarf or z-move
252 Atk Landorus-Therian Earthquake vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Slowking-Galar: 426-504 (108.1 - 127.9%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Mamoswine @ Metronome
Ability: Thick Fat
Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 40 HP / 252 Atk / 216 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Ice Shard
- Icicle Crash
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
This Mamoswine set allows you to shrug off Baxcalibur's ice STAB and terastallise to nullify its glaive rushes while always 2HKOing it with metronome boosted earthquakes:
252 Atk Mamoswine Earthquake vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Baxcalibur: 177-208 (47.7 - 56%) -- not a KO
252 Atk Metronome Mamoswine Earthquake vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Baxcalibur: 212-250 (57.1 - 67.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
+1 252+ Atk Baxcalibur Icicle Crash vs. 40 HP / 0 Def Thick Fat Mamoswine: 150-177 (40.4 - 47.7%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
And it obviously crushes Slowking-Galar, terastallised or not since both types are weak to its potent ground STAB:
252 Atk Metronome Mamoswine Earthquake vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Slowking-Galar: 470-557 (119.2 - 141.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO
0 SpA Slowking-Galar Flamethrower vs. 40 HP / 0 SpD Thick Fat Mamoswine: 108-128 (29.1 - 34.5%) -- 4.1% chance to 3HKO
0 SpA Slowking-Galar Future Sight vs. 40 HP / 0 SpD Mamoswine: 211-250 (56.8 - 67.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

252+ Atk Baxcalibur Earthquake vs. 148 HP / 36 Def Tyranitar-Mega: 178-210 (47 - 55.5%) -- 74.2% chance to 2HKO
