Glass Cannon (Iron Treads) @ Life Orb / Choice Band
Ability: Quark Drive
Level: 50
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- High Horsepower
- Steel Roller
- Iron Head
- Protect / Knock Off / Ice Spinner
[SET COMMENTS]

Set Details
========
- Iron Treads functions as a fast and powerful glass cannon, using its STAB moves in tandem with Quark Drive's Speed boost to outspeed and threaten a large portion of the metagame. Most notably, Iron Treads checks Miraidon superbly, hitting it super effectively before and after Terastillization while resisting its STAB moves, and Iron Treads also pressures Calyrex-I, Zacian-C, and Raging Bolt while utilizing Steel Roller to provide Terrain control.
- Steel Roller provides Iron Treads with an insanely powerful damage option if a Terrain is active; the move very effectively punishes Miraidon and Rillaboom by removing their Terrains, while its power allows Iron Treads to pick up KOs on Grimmsnarl through Reflect and Landorus. Iron Head allows Iron Treads to have a consistent Steel-type STAB option that isn't reliant on a Terrain being active. Knock Off provides Iron Treads item removal in addition to threatening Calyrex-S, whereas Ice Spinner allows Iron Treads to consistently OHKO Landorus and 2HKO Rillaboom while removing its Grassy Terrain.
- Life Orb bolsters Iron Treads's power significantly, most notably allowing it to pick up an OHKO on Miraidon and a 2HKO on Incineroar with High Horsepower. Choice Band provides more immediate power, most notably guaranteeing an OHKO on Calyrex-I with Steel Roller, but makes Iron Treads inflexible and more vulnerable to Fake Out.
- Tera Ghost provides a valuable immunity to Fighting-type attacks that otherwise threaten Iron Treads, notably Close Combat from Urshifu-R and Body Press from Zamazenta-C, while also providing a Fake Out immunity most commonly used for Incineroar and Rillaboom.

Teambuilding
=========
- Urshifu-R and Landorus are very problematic foes for Iron Treads, as they can take Iron Treads's attacks and threaten it back with super effective STAB moves in Surging Strikes and Earth Power, respectively. Ogerpon-H can threaten to OHKO Iron Treads with Ivy Cudgel while being able to redirect its attacks with Follow Me.
- Zamazenta-C threatens Iron Treads with STAB Body Press while comfortably taking its attacks in return, as can Koraidon, which threatens Iron Treads with an easy OHKO with either Flare Blitz or Close Combat.
- Incineroar can be problematic through hindering Iron Treads's damage output with Intimidate and Will-O-Wisp. Rillaboom can also hamper Iron Treads through disabling Quark Drive with Grassy Surge and threatening big damage with Grassy Glide or Wood Hammer.
- Miraidon pairs fantastically with Iron Treads, as it can set Electric Terrain to activate Quark Drive while being able to threaten Urshifu-R , and in return, Iron Treads threatens opposing Miraidon, Chien-Pao, and Calyrex-I, which can be problematic for Miraidon. Calyrex-I appreciates Iron Treads's ability to hit Fire-types like Chi-Yu as well as Zacian-C, all of which can threaten Calyrex-I; in return, Calyrex-I can threaten Rillaboom and Ground-types like Ursaluna that Iron Treads struggles with.
- Iron Treads appreciates Fake Out support from the likes of Incineroar and Iron Hands to cover for its vulnerability due to poor defenses, particularly on variants without Protect. Iron Treads also greatly appreciates redirection from the likes of Amoonguss and Sinistcha to protect it from otherwise threatening Water- and Fighting-type attacks, and in turn, Iron Treads hits the Fire- and Ice-types that threaten them.

Glass Cannon (Iron Treads) @ Life Orb / Choice Band (It has a fair amount of usage and were a majority of the high placements at NAIC and Bologna)

Set Details
========
- Iron Treads functions as a fast and powerful glass cannon, using its STAB Moves in tandem with a Quark Drive Speed boost under Electric Terrain to outspeed threaten a large portion of the meta, most notably Miraidon, which is Iron Treads very effectively checks due to hitting it Super Effectively before and after Terastilization and resisting its STABs., as well as It also pressures Calyrex I, Zacian and Raging Bolt, whilst utilising Steel Roller to be effective Terrain Control.
- Steel Roller provides Iron Treads with an insanely powerful damage option if a terrain is active, whilst allowing it to very effectively punish opposing Miraidon and Rillaboom by removing their terrain. Iron Head allows Iron Treads to have a consistent Steel STAB option which isn't reliant on terrain being active, whilst and Knock Off provides Iron Treads nice utility whilst threatening Calyrex Shadow.
- Life Orb bolsters Iron Tread's power significantly, most notably allowing it to pick up and OHKO on Miraidon and a 2HKO on Incinceroar with High Horsepower. Add Choice Band
- Tera Ghost provides a valuable immunity to Fighting Type attacks that otherwise threaten Iron Treads, notably Close Combat from Urshifu-R and Body Press from Zamazenta-C, whilst also providing a Fake Out immunity namely from Incineroar and Rillaboom. Tera Grass provides a useful Water and Ground resistance, notably helping against Kyogre and Landorus-I, whilst allowing Iron Treads to bypass Rage Powder from Amoonguss and Brute Bonnet and be immune to Spore.

Teambuilding
=========
- Urshifu-R and Landorus-I are very problematic foes for Iron Treads, as they can take Iron Treads's attacks and threaten it back with Super Effective STAB moves in Surging Strikes and Earth Power respectively. Ogerpon-H can threaten Iron Treads with an OHKO with Ivy Cudgel, whilst being able to redirection Iron Treads's attacks with Follow me.
- Zamazenta-C too threatens Iron Treads with STAB Body Press, whilst comfortably taking Iron Treads's attacks in return, as can Koraidon who threatens Iron Treads with an easy OHKO with either Flare Blitz or Close Combat.
- Incineroar can be problematic through hindering Iron Treads's damage output with Intimidate and Will-O-Wisp.
- Miraidon pairs fantastically with Iron Treads, with it being able to set Electric Terrain to activate Iron Treads's Quark Drive Speed boost, whilst being able to threaten Urshifu-R and Zamazenta-C (especially with the common Assault Vest and Choice Scarf sets, Zamazenta-C isn't necessarily "threatened", at least not for an OHKO) for Iron Treads, whilst in return Iron Treads threatens opposing Miraidon, Chien-Pao and Calyrex-I which can be problematic for Miraidon. Calyrex-I also appreciates Iron Treads's ability to hit Chi-Yu and other Fire-Types, as well as Zacian-C, all of which can threaten Calyrex-I, whilst Calyrex-I can threaten the Ground Types that Iron Treads struggles with.
- Iron Treads appreciates the support of Incineroar, which can use Fake Out and Intimidate to hinder threatening foes for Iron Treads, while in return Iron Treads can hit Ogerpon-C and other Rock-Types that are threatening to Incineroar. (For QC not sure if their is a better example of how it supports incin, also not sure if i repeat myself too much in this section.) (This is tough because it tends to be the case with Incineroar, but they have less of covering each other's weaknesses synergy. They are both pretty weak to the aforementioned threats, but if there's one thing Incineroar does, it's that Fake Out helps the Iron Treads that don't run Protect to not be as vulnerable) Iron Treads also greatly appreciates redirection from the likes of Amoonguss or Sinistcha to allow it to stay healthy protect it from otherwise threatening Water- and Fighting-type attacks, and in turn Iron Treads hits the Fire- and Ice-Types that both easily threaten both mons.

(not sure if this was what was intended) (I really just don't like this because, for starters, there are like no other relevant Rock-types, and Incineroar doesn't even help much against most of the aforementioned threats. Fake Out covering for non-Protect variant's vulnerability is kind of the best you can do here.) Iron Treads also greatly appreciates redirection from the likes of Amoonguss or Sinistcha to protect it from otherwise threatening Water- and Fighting-type attacks, and in turn Iron Treads hits the Fire- and Ice-Types that threaten both mons.
