tera fire provides the immunity if needed. and can even be free setup if they identify that its not guts and try to burn it. depends how much u need it to switch into wisps tho, and obviously the immediate power from guts is amazing too and can easily be enough damage a lot of the time. moxie...

Slither Wing @ Life Orb Ability: Moxie Tera Type: Fire EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Adamant Nature - Leech Life - Close Combat - Flame Charge - Swords Dance you are not safe

For sake of discussion here's what I believe to be the main Perish Trap set :Azumarill: Azumarill @ Leftovers / Chesto Berry Ability: Sap Sipper EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD Calm Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Whirlpool - Perish Song - Protect - Toxic / Rest / Knock Off The main goal is...

stacking ground weaknesses isnt really an issue for electric terrain imo. alolachu has grass knot or surf for coverage, which deal with grounds handily. i heavily favor NP+grass knot on it. since it beats most of the ou viable grounds besides excy (which is setup fodder for lucha) and diggersby...

personally id still recommend psychic and giga drain on the sun sweeper set. you'll be paired with venu, so being able to play off of things that he struggles with (kommo, spdef pex, rotom if he doesnt get a growth off, etc) will give volc a much easier time setting up and sweeping. Giga...

i also wanna toss out another set that I didn't feel was worth putting in the main post. Azumarill @ Assault Vest Ability: Huge Power EVs: 136 HP / 252 Atk / 120 SpD Adamant Nature - Aqua Jet - Play Rough - Knock Off - Liquidation/Superpower AV Azumarill totally commits to its role as a...

Azumarill! Mod Edit: Approved

counter: salazzle and gengar check: cinderace and bisharp

Hippowdon @ Leftovers Ability: Sand Stream EVs: 252 HP / 8 Atk / 248 Def Impish Nature - Stealth Rock - Earthquake - Slack Off - Whirlwind Hippowdon is a check to the standard wish+teleport clefable set. Hippo is not very capable of defeating clefable itself, but it is able to disrupt...

i definitely feel like melmetals too strong for the current meta but its worth using calcs with him in mind rather than just what people have been using. vish also looked unstoppable without carrying some water immunity before people grew more familiar with his options and limits. like yeah...

I've been using this set on hyper offense to stall out dynamax's after theyve been baited out. Grimmsnarl (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Prankster EVs: 244 HP / 252 Atk / 12 Spe Adamant Nature - Spirit Break - Darkest Lariat - Thunder Wave - Substitute the general idea is to just spam...

I've literally only seen one digger thus far but it was carrying bounce to get the speed boost from airstream. on paper it can also run hammer arm to get attack boosts, but coverage is probably more important.

id say ditto is a positive impact so long as dynamax is legal. the mere possibility of ditto is one of the few things keeping people from using just any braindead sweeper and steamrolling. a good offensive team either needs a way to stop ditto directly (sub, lucha, etc) or some way of...

heatran sure but scarf lando is genuinely the most used set on ladder
