Pain Split is the key to this set's wallbreaking success, letting Magearna use an otherwise unbreakable wall in Chansey as complete set-up fodder, taking advantage of its huge HP stat. A great Fairy / Steel typing, high Special Attack, and access to Thunderbolt also allow it to blow past other stall staples such as Mega Sableye, Toxapex, and Zapdos. Despite being a sweeper, Magearna's HP investment and resistances allow it to take on Tapu Bulu and Tornadus and survive two Focus Blasts from Mega Alakazam. Fairium Z is the best item to use, giving it a one-time nuke that can OHKO Tangrowth and Mega Mawile at +1. However, Leftovers also works for passive recovery and frees the Z-move slot, while a Shuca Berry lets it live a single Ground-type attack from Landorus and Zygarde and retaliate. This set best fits on teams that need its stallbreaking capabilities to ease matchups. Ash-Greninja and Gliscor are good teammates, as they pressure Heatran and can set hazards that can chip checks such as Ferrothorn and opposing Assault Vest Magearna.
