Well-Baked Body (Landorus-Therian) (M) @ Leftovers

Impish Nature
- Earthquake

- Smack Down / Hammer Arm

[SET COMMENTS]
With an added immunity to Fire, Landorus-T becomes a fantastic check to many of the Fire-types in the tier such as Cinderace, Ceruledge, and Iron Moth that also doubles as an entry hazards setter and a pivot. It differentiates itself from Garchomp as a Fire-type answer with its immunity to Will-O-Wisp as well as access to U-turn and Smack Down, allowing it to generate momentum and pressure Corviknight and other Flying-types. It can further capitalize on this added offensive presence with Swords Dance, especially if it has activated Well-Baked Body beforehand. Alternatively, running Hammer Arm over Smack Down allows it to still beat Earth Eater Heatran by itself and potentially hit Earth Eater Iron Treads hard on the switch. As a Fire-type answer, it makes a fantastic partner for Corviknight, which also appreciates its Fighting resistance to help against Pokemon like Slither Wing and in turn can handle many strong wallbreakers such as Roaring Moon and Chien-Pao that Landorus-T lacks the bulk and recovery to answer. Landorus-T also benefits RegenVest Pokemon such as Hisuian Goodra and Meloetta by preventing them from getting overwhelmed by strong Fire-type attacks and, in the case of Hisuian Goodra, helping against Ground-types such as Sandy Shocks and Landorus, while in return they handle the many special attackers in the tier. Water-immune partners, such as Desolate Land Heatran and Ceruledge, make good teammates for Landorus-T as well. Frail wallbreakers such as Chien-Pao and Cinderace also benefit from its pivoting ability to enter the battlefield safely as well as the hazards its sets to wear down their checks.

With an added Fire immunity, Landorus-Therian becomes a fantastic check to many of the Fire-types in the tier such as Cinderace, Ceruledge, and Iron Moth that also doubles as an entry hazards setter and a pivot. It differentiates itself from Garchomp as a Fire-type answer with its immunity to Will-o-Wisp as well as access to U-turn and Smack Down, the former which allows it to keep momentum after it forces a switch and the latter making it more threatening against opposing Flying-types, notably Corviknight. It can further capitalize on this added offensive presence with Swords Dance, especially if it has activated Well-Baked Body beforehand. Alternatively, running Hammer Arm over Smack Down allows it to still beat Earth Eater Heatran by itself and potentially hit Earth Eater Iron Treads hard on the switch. This set prefers max physical bulk because most of the Pokemon it's tasked to take are physical attackers. As a Fire-type answer it makes a fantastic partner for Corviknight, which also appreciates its Fighting resistance to help against Pokemon like Slither Wing and in turn can handle many strong breakers such as Roaring Moon moon and Chien-(add hyphen)Pao that Landorus-T lacks the bulk and recovery to answer. Landorus-T also benefits Regenvest Pokemon such as Hisuian Goodra Goodra-Hisui and Meloetta by preventing them from getting overwhelmed by strong Fire Type attacks, and in the case of Hisuian Goodra Goodra-Hisui, helping against Ground-Types such as Sandy Shocks and Landorus-Incarnate, while in return they handle the many special attackers in the tier. Frail breakers such as Chien-(add hyphen)Pao and Cinderace also benefit from its pivoting ability to enter the battlefield safely as well as the hazards its sets to wear down their checks.

Frail wallbreakers such as Chien-Pao and Cinderace also benefit from its pivoting ability to enter the battlefield safely as well as the hazards its sets to wear down their checks. I would like to work in an answer to water types, since it and corv both struggle with them, maybe DesoAce?
