Hydreigon @ Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Tera Type: Steel
Timid Nature
- Nasty Plot
- Draco Meteor
- Flash Cannon
- Substitute

With Substitute and Nasty Plot, Hydreigon becomes the Brutal Pokemon it was meant to be! Draco Meteor OHKOes Raging Bolt and Walking Wake while also threatening Darkrai and Hisuian Samurott. Flash Cannon helps deal with Clefable and Enamorus as well as Tera Fairy users like Moltres and Raging Bolt. Substitute shields Hydreigon from revenge killers like Iron Valiant and Zamazenta while preventing status ailments from defensive Pokemon like Galarian Slowking and Garganacl. Tera Steel complements Hydreigon's defensive qualities by allowing it to safely set up against Gliscor, Clefable, and Galarian Slowking while turning the tables on offensive Pokemon such as Dragonite and Kyurem. Due to Hydreigon's middling Speed tier, it heavily appreciates pivots like Galarian Slowking and Corviknight that can help handle offensive threats like Kingambit, Weavile, and Primarina and provide safe entry into targets like Great Tusk. Zamazenta provides a versatile check and speed control option that enjoys Hydreigon's ability to threaten more defensive teams.
