[SET COMMENTS]
  • This Gothitelle set aims to trap and PP stall weak walls so that its offensive teammates can take over mid- to late-game. This Gothitelle set can come in on weak walls like Clodsire, Ting-Lu, Alomomola, and defensive Great Tusk and beat them by PP stalling them.
  • Charm and Calm Mind are use to boost Gothitelle's survivability while PP stalling its foe.
  • Taunt is used to stop phazing attempts and make the trapped Pokemon use their attacking PP, thus depleting their PP faster. Stored Power is an alternative for teams that benefit from having more wallbreaking potential or that have a good matchup against the Dark-types of the tier like Chien-Pao and Kingambit.
  • The 24 Speed EVs allow Gothitelle to be faster than uninvested Corviknight, trapping it if it's not running U-turn. The Defense investment is used to tank hits well for PP stalling purposes, with attacks such as Ting-Lu's Earthquake being only a 4HKO.
  • Tera Fairy is used for its solid defensive typing and ability to trap Choice-locked Dragon-types like Miraidon and Koraidon, Tera Water is an option for its overall great defensive typing, granting resistances to Chien-Pao's Icicle Crash, Koraidon's Flare Blitz, and Iron Bundle's Hydro Pump or Ice Beam. Lastly, Tera Ground is used to allow Gothitelle to trap Miraidon locked into an Electric move or defeat Double Dance sets one-on-one.
  • Gothitelle's favorite partners are powerful sweepers and cleaners, especially setup sweepers that take advantage of defensive Pokemon having their PP drained to set up easily and without risk. Common examples include Sword Dance Koriadon, Swords Dance Chien-Pao, Double Dance Miraidon, and Calm Mind Flutter Mane.

  • Shadow Tag allows Gothitelle to trap most defensive Pokemon, allowing its teamates an easier sweep. This set specializes on PP stalling the oponent out of attacking moves, thus removing the oposing pokemon from the game. (I'd put emphasis on the PP stalling aspect; "This Gothitelle sets can come in on weak walls like Clodsire, Alomomola, and defensive Great Tusk and beat them by PP stalling them".)
  • Charm and Calm Mind are use to boost your survivability while PP stalling your opponent.
  • which pokemon does taunt target? when is stored power better?
  • The Special Defense EVs allow Gothitelle to trap Scarf Miraidon without using Teralization (find a better example ASAP). The defense investment is to tank hits well for PP stalling such as Ting-Lus Earthquake 4 hit KOing.
  • Tera Fairy is used for its solid defensive typing and also trapping choiced dragon moves from Miraidon and Koraidon, Tera Steel is used for its overall great defensive typing and resistances alowing certain traps of pokemon locked on a resisted move, and Ground is used for its Electric inmunity which allows Gothitelle to be able to trap certain Pokemon without taking any damage, saving HP for a later trap. (give examples i s2g)
  • Gothitelle favourite partners are powerful sweepers and cleaners, especially setup sweepers that take advantage over the lack of PP of the defensive pokemon allowing easy riskless setup. These Sweepers are commonly SD Koriadon, SD Chien-Pao, Double Dance Miraidon, and Calm Mind Flutter Mane, Calm Mind Hatterene; whom can set up with not much trouble against a stalled out wall.

Combine into "This Gothitelle set aims to trap and PP stall weak walls so that its offensive teammates can take over the mid- to late-game."

Then its 2/2
