Latios (M) @ Expert Belt
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Luster Purge
- Thunderbolt
- Ice Beam
- Agility / Recover
Breaking teams like they're the sound barrier, Latios bursts onto the scene with immense speed and power! This set opts for the infamous BoltBeam combo, aiding its Dragon-type teammates by dispatching troublesome foes like Primarina and Gliscor while putting immense pressure on Tornadus-T. Latios becomes a great cleaner with Agility, outpacing the entire metagame and picking off weakened foes, notably Dragapult and Zamazenta. Alternatively, Recover allows Latios to stay in the game longer, giving it an edge against Ground teams using sand to wear it down. With Levitate and a Fighting resistance, Latios is a great partner for Archaludon and Hisuian Goodra, covering their only two weaknesses. In return, Archaludon and Hisuian Goodra use their great bulk and Steel typing to cover for Latios's weaknesses, beating the likes of Roaring Moon and Flutter Mane, respectively. Special walls like Alolan Muk and Heatran will give this set trouble, making Garchomp and Gouging Fire great teammates for Latios, the latter being neutral to Fairy and Ice as well.
