Monotype Hoopa-U (Dark)

[Murphy Lawden]

(Dark)
Hoopa-Unbound @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Magician
EVs: 248 SpA / 8 SpD / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Psychic Noise
- Knock Off
- Thunderbolt
- Focus Blast

This troublemaker sends its enemies to the void! Hoopa-U's mixed attacking prowess and diverse coverage options make it a solid pick for Dark teams. Psychic Noise threatens Poison- and Fighting-types like Toxapex and defensive Great Tusk while also denying recovery for other walls like Gastrodon. Knock Off punishes switch-ins like Tornadus-T, Hisuian Goodra, Alolan Muk, and Ting-Lu by removing their Assault Vest or Leftovers. Thunderbolt nails Water- and Flying-types like Primarina, Corviknight, and Skarmory. Focus Blast OHKOes Archaludon and targets Heatran, Hisuian Goodra, and Ting-Lu. 8 Special Defense EVs allow Hoopa-U to survive a Moonblast from Choice Scarf Flutter Mane from full HP and OHKO it back with Knock Off. Ting-Lu sets entry hazards, which synergizes well with Hoopa-U's Knock Off removing items from the aforementioned walls and lets it break through them. Mandibuzz handles Scizor, brings Hoopa-U in safely with its slow U-turn, and provides Defog support. Choice Scarf Meowscarada can take on Choice Specs Flutter Mane and opposing Choice Scarf users like Greninja and Sneasler while also assisting in the Fighting and Flying matchups with Play Rough and Triple Axel, respectively.

This troublemaker sends its enemies to the void! Hoopa-U's mixed attacking prowess, diverse coverage options, and a high Special Defense that allows it stomach certain special attacks, (This comes off as incredibly vague, we don't need it) make it a solid pick on Dark teams. Psychic Noise denies recovery from walls like Articuno (Honestly, just knocking Articuno is more important incase its a U-turn variant cause it greatly cripples its ability to check gren/Hoopa-U later) and Gastrodon Also mention how it donks Poison- and Fighting-types, Toxapex and Defensive Great Tusk are not enjoying this). Knock Off punishes switch-ins like Tornadus-T, Hisuian Goodra, Corviknight Alolan Muk, and Ting-Lu by removing their Assault Vest, Leftovers, or Heavy-Duty Boots (None of these guys run boots consistently enough, and if it is Boots Torn-T, its usually nasty plot which does not come in). Thunderbolt nails Water- and Flying-types like Primarina, Corviknight, and Skarmory. Focus Blast OHKOes Archaludon and targets Heatran, Hisuian Goodra, and Ting-Lu. 8 Special Defense EVs allow Hoopa-U to live a Moonblast from Choice Scarf Flutter Mane from full and OHKO it back with Knock Off. Ting-Lu sets entry hazards, which both synergizes well with Hoopa-U's Knock Off, removing items from the aforementioned walls and lets it break through them. Mandibuzz handles Scizor, brings Hoopa-U in safely with its slow U-turn, and provides Defog support.
