Celebi @ Psychium Z
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Nasty Plot
- Psychic
- Giga Drain
- Dazzling Gleam
With its STAB combination and coverage options boosted by Nasty Plot, Celebi stands as a large threat to bulkier teams, particularly with Aerodactyl, Alolan Muk, and Nihilego removed. Celebi thrives by threatening bulky Water-types and other passive Pokemon like Hippowdon in order to set up a Nasty Plot. Giga Drain and Natural Cure give Celebi the ability to set up and break the opposing team multiple times. Celebi is able to threaten offensive Steel-types like Scizor after a Nasty Plot, but still struggles with bulkier ones such as Bronzong and Bisharp. Fighting-types such as Cobalion and Terrakion are able to pressure both Dark- and Steel-types for Celebi. Celebi benefits from Pursuit trappers such as Mega Aerodactyl and Choice Scarf Krookodile that can handle Latias and other more fragile Pokemon like Nihilego and Gengar that otherwise easily outspeed and OHKO Celebi. Choice Scarf Hydreigon and Scizor are also capable of revenge killing the aforementioned threats.
