Hydreigon @ Choice Specs
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Dark Pulse
- Draco Meteor
- Fire Blast
- Flash Cannon
With a plethora of coverage options backed by strong power, Choice Specs Hydreigon is a fearsome wallbreaker in the ORAS OU metagame that can set itself apart from Latios, a tough competitor. Hydreigon sports a colorful and powerful movepool that allows it to check threats such as Bisharp, Mega Scizor, and Mega Slowbro, and thanks to Flash Cannon, Clefable and Mega Altaria are no longer considered switch-ins. Hydreigon's typing also makes Pursuit trapping from the likes of Weavile, Tyranitar, and Mega Metagross ineffective, which greatly sets it apart from Latios. Hydreigon values teammates such as Mega Metagross, Mega Scizor, and Excadrill, as they are able to patch up Hydreigon's weakness to Fairy- and Dragon-type moves. Partners such as Serperior and Choice Specs Keldeo are able to pressure and form a wallbreaking core alongside Hydreigon to overwhelm its main check in the tier, Assault Vest Tornadus-T.
