With Magby and Torchic banned, Salandit carries the torch as the premier fast Fire-type wallbreaker! With 3 HP IVs, Life Orb recoil and Stealth Rock chip damage are minimized. Fire Blast OHKOs common defensive pieces such as Foongus, Toedscool, and Tinkatink while dealing massive damage to metagame staples such as Mienfoo and Vullaby. Sludge Bomb hits Fire-resistant Pokemon such as Chinchou and Shellder. The few Pokemon that resist Salandit's STAB combination, such as Glimmet and Mareanie, are hit super effectively by Tera Blast Psychic, which also allows Salandit to OHKO Mienfoo. Protect blocks Mienfoo's Fake Out, the most common form of priority, and lets Salandit scout for defensive Tera types. Trapinch is an excellent partner, as it can trap and remove threats such as Alolan Diglett and Elekid, which outspeed Salandit and threaten super effective damage; Stunky; which threatens Salandit with Sucker Punch; and Glimmet, allowing Tera to be preserved. Pivots such as Mienfoo and Vullaby can bring Salandit into favorable matchups against their checks like Foongus and Tinkatink.
Da Magby und Torchic gebannt wurden, trägt nun Salandit die Fackel als bester schneller Feuer-Wallbreaker weiter! Mit 3 KP-IVs werden sowohl Life Orb-Schaden als auch Stealth Rock-Schaden minimiert. Fire Blast OHKOed übliche defensive Pokémon wie Foongus, Toedscool und Tinkatink, während es gleichzeitig massiven Schaden an Metagame-Staples wie Mienfoo und Vullaby anrichtet. Sludge Bomb trifft Feuer-resistente Pokémon wie Chinchou und Shellder. Die wenigen Pokémon, die Salandits STAB-Kombination resistieren, wie beispielsweise Glimmet und Mareanie, werden von Tera Blast-Psycho sehr effektiv getroffen, welches ebenfalls Mienfoo OHKOed. Protect blockiert Fake Out von Mienfoo, die häufigste Form von Priority, und lässt es für defensive Tera-Typen scouten. Trapinch ist ein ausgezeichneter Partner, da es Gefahren wie Alolan Diglett und Elekid trappen und besiegen kann, die Salandit outspeeden und mit sehr effektiven Attacken bedrohen können. Außerdem kann es Stunky besiegen, welches Salandit mit Sucker Punch bedroht, sowie Glimmet, wodurch Salandit seine Terakristallisierung noch aufsparen kann. Pivots wie Mienfoo und Vullaby können Salandit sicher in vorteilhafte Matchups gegen deren Checks wie Foonguss und Tinkatink reinbringen.
