Ampharos uses Volt Switch and Roar to shuffle in Mesprit safely, crippling physical attackers with Rocky Helmet + Static and carving openings for Mesprit to set up. Once in, Mesprit’s Nasty Plot snowballs with Draining Kiss recovery and boosted Psyshock pressure, while Encore locks defensive answers.

PIVOT. Band Floatzel + HDB Jolteon relying on Flip Turn and Volt Switch to chip down checks and counters for an ally or one of them to sweep towards the end. Something comes in to tank the hit, bam, they take 14% or whatever from Turn/Volt plus 12% from SR, and then something that threatens it immediately out comes in. Never lose tempo.

Pretty standard stuff here - Choice Specs Clawitzer is absolutely brutal to switch into, and to get it opportunities against slower foes like Sandslash and Regirock we're using Choice Scarf Passimian to form a powerful Pivot core that can keep standard bulky offense and balance teams on the back foot.

make sure you have a sturdy fire resist! these two are a pretty standard duo in the current meta, as perrserker stocks rise and people catch on to whimsicott being one of the hardest mons to switch into.

perr hits incredibly hard with its stab, knocks items off of shared checks like charizard, and has a nice slow pivot into whimsi. it can also obliterate with close combat the steel-types that stonewall whimsi’s dual stab and rack up chip damage with rocks or fake out. in turn, whimsi can break through meta staples like vikavolt, lanturn, sandslash, and strong fighting-types like heasel and passimian to make perr’s life as a slow attacker that much easier.
