Gyarados @ Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 248 HP / 64 Def / 196 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Waterfall
- Earthquake
- Taunt

Gyarados continues to dance through the danger! Gyarados is a capable setup sweeper for Flying teams, making great use of its Water typing to set up and crush foes like Flutter Mane once boosted. Waterfall washes away foes like Heatran and Mamoswine. At +1, Earthquake can 2HKO threats such as Water Absorb Clodsire and Hisuian Goodra, which otherwise easily handle Gyarados. Finally, Taunt prevents foes like Galarian Weezing and Skarmory from shutting Gyarados down with Will-O-Wisp and Whirlwind, respectively. The given EV spread, when paired with Intimidate, enables Gyarados to easily set up on threats such as Scizor and Roaring Moon as well as outspeed Choice Specs Flutter Mane after a Dragon Dance. Gyarados greatly appreciates Gliscor and the Landorus formes crushing the Electric-types like Regieleki and Raging Bolt that otherwise feast upon it. Corviknight also serves as valuable support, providing safe entry with its slow U-turn and removing Stealth Rock with Defog. Choice Scarf Enamorus can outspeed and remove powerful Dragon-types like Dragonite and Choice Specs Latios, along with using Healing Wish to give Gyarados a second shot at setting up.

- since this is dd, mention what we are washing away at +1 since this is like the purpose of it. We just entirely wash away flutter mane after a dd with waterfall which is really crucial to have on here since Flutter Mane is such a bitch for the typing.
- i would mention clodsire and hoodra being 2hko with +1 eq. Also WA Clodsire doesnt resist it since it takes no damage from waterfull, i would change that.
- Intimidate sentence? that should be there somewhere cuz why would i run it and not moxie instead yanno? like being able to swap in on shit while still being able to use that stat drop opportunity to setup is huge.

"With its EV Spread capable of outspeed Choice Specs Flutter Mane after a single Dragon Dance with its rest of its EVs going into physical bulk allowing it to easily setup on threats like Scizor and Roaring Moon."
- this reads weird, reword it, be simple. just be like the given ev spread allows gyarados to outspeed Mane after a boost while also maximizing its bulk to setup on threats like Scizor and Roaring Moon

- add scarf Enamorus as a teammate

QC 1/1 after implements :Arcanine:
