Hariyama @ Assault Vest
Ability: Guts
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 252 Atk / 228 SpD / 28 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Close Combat
- Ice Punch
- Knock Off
- Heavy Slam
You don't want to be slapped by Hariyama's Iron Hands! As a potent attacker in bulky teams, Hariyama finally find its position in NU. Ice Punch punishes Flying-types like Altaria and Gligar. Knock Off cripples item-reliant checks like Altaria, Amoonguss, and Cramorant, while Heavy Slam has the power to remove Fairy-types like Diancie and Sylveon. Tera Steel provide it with resistances to Psychic, Fairy, and Flying and also boosts Heavy Slam. In bulky teams, Hariyama can remove opponents' items, making incredable progress in bulky mirror matchups. Guts grants it the ability to absorb status moves like Thunder Wave and Scald, since its teammates may be crippled by these moves. To build a Fighting-type spam team structure, Paldean Tauros-W is highly appreciated for its great power and decent bulk. However, it will be worn down by entry hazards or other threats, so Defog users like Altaria and Cramorant; walls like Bronzong, Amoonguss, and Vaporeon; and pivots like Kilowattrel can be good teammates. To fully leverage Hariyama's ability to remove items, especially Heavy-Duty Boots, hazard setters like Gligar and Gastrodon are needed. Wish users like Vaporeon and Sylveon can also boost its longevity.
