Magnezone @ Electrium Z
Ability: Magnet Pull
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Substitute
- Thunderbolt
- Flash Cannon
- Hidden Power Fire
With the amazing ability Magnet Pull, Magnezone can trap and eliminate annoying bulky Steel-types like Ferrothorn and Celesteela. With Electrium Z, Magnezone is able to OHKO Mega Mawile and Celesteela with a powerful Gigavolt Havoc without taking damage. Substitute is used to ease prediction on forced switches into Pokemon such as Tyranitar and Heatran. It can also improve Magnezone's matchup against Mega Mawile, giving it protection against its Sucker Punch. Flash Cannon is also a great move, as it is a great asset to pressure Fairy-types like Tapu Bulu and Ground-types like Landorus-T from trying to switch in. Pokemon that appreciate bulky Steel-type Pokemon removed like Mega Alakazam, Kartana, and Tapu Lele appreciate Magnezone removing or weakening checks like Celesteela and Mega Scizor so they can spam their powerful moves and sweep more easily late-game.
