ZU Beartic [QC 0/1]

[sleid]

Beartic @ Loaded Dice
Ability: Slush Rush
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Tera Type: Ghost
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Icicle Spear
- Close Combat
- Earthquake

The icy bear has been causing an avalanche throughout the ZU landscape with its powerful Attack, perfect coverage, and blistering Speed under Snow. Loaded Dice Icicle Spear terrorizes even the strongest physically defensive walls, comfortably 2HKOing Weezing and Mesprit after a Swords Dance. Close Combat is amazing coverage to help Beartic take down other common defensive behemoths like Snorlax, Orthworm, and Regirock. Earthquake gives Beartic a safer click into Lanturn, Magneton, and Magmortar, since it won't have to lower its defenses. Tera Ghost is a scary sight for the likes of Regirock, Passimian, and Glastrier since it thwarts their ability to revenge kill easily, at the tradeoff of losing the Snow Defense boost. Beartic works exlusively on Snow teams when paired with Abomasnow. Hazard removal from the likes of Hitmontop and Sandslash is greatly appreciated as both Beartic and Abomasnow are weak to Stealth Rock. Healing Wish support from Mesprit can give Beartic another life after it sets up in the early to mid-game. Cleaners like Basculin, Hisuian Sneasel, and Minior appreciate Beartic wearing down defensive walls for them.

The icy bear has been causing an avalanche throughout the ZU landscape with its powerful Attack, perfect coverage, and blistering Speed under Snow. Loaded Dice Icicle Spear terrorizes even the strongest physically defensive walls, comfortably 2HKOing Weezing and Mesprit after a Swords Dance. If Beartic doesn't need Stealth Rock to 2HKO these threats I'd say cleanly; if Beartic does mention that. Close Combat is amazing coverage to help Beartic take down other common defensive behemoths like Snorlax, Orthworm, and Regirock. Earthquake gives Beartic a safer click into Lanturn, Magneton, and Magmortar I understand Magmortar triggering Flame Body but it's a very niche pick, since it won't have to lower its defenses. Tera Ghost is a scary sight for the likes of Regirock, Passimian, and Glastrier since it thwarts their ability to revenge kill easily I fully get what you're expressing here but a bit more clarification - how does Tera Ghost stop these Pokemon from revenge killing it?, at the tradeoff of losing the Snow Defense boost While a good point I think the reader would understand Tera. Beartic works exclusively on Snow teams when paired with Abomasnow. Hazard removal from the likes of Hitmontop and Sandslash is greatly appreciated as both Beartic and Abomasnow are weak to Stealth Rock. Healing Wish support from Mesprit can give Beartic another life after it sets up in the early to mid-game. Cleaners like Basculin, Hisuian Sneasel, and Minior appreciate Beartic wearing down defensive walls for them. If character count is a concern, depending on how many characters are removed, remove H-sneasel, if more characters need to be removed, perhaps the entire last sentence. If no character limit then keep it
