This team composition is focused on dealing as much damage as possible with chi yu and lokix, the surprise factor of life orb glimmora, and espathra to clean.
First up is Chi-yu. This stupid goldfish deals absurd amounts of damage. I find this is a mon that i am quite often terastallizing for extra damage. I dont run max speed for extra damage to tanks like dondozo, and I have iron hands for other chi-yus. This mon focuses on either killing/revenge killing a mon or doing huge damage into switch ins.
Second is lokix, the anti setup sweeper. Tinted lens choice band first impression lokix does lots of damage, especially with double stab tera. Lokix is a great revenge killer if you can get it in, although its another mon on my team weak to rocks.
Here is Iron Hands. Usually a SD mon, im using it as a bulky attacker. Assault vest gives this crazy bulk, even w/o SpDef investment. I’d like feedback on if I should change to more Spdef investment. This is my chi-yu and espathra counter. Tera dark to tank a free stored power from espathra. Brick break for screens grimmsnarl, which my team has been struggling with.
Next is Espathra. Espathra is here for cleanup. I usually dont send it in early unless its against great tusk. I only usually tera other mons if the opponent has no dark type immune to stored power. Otherwise, tera is saved for espathra. I have twisted spoon for even further stored power power. Should I change the item?
Corviknight, the other bulky pokemon on my team. Corviknight biggest roles are threatening brave bird on great tusk (even though don’t have brave bird my opponents don’t know that so I can u-turn and gain a positional advantage, maybe i could replace roost.) and hazard removal. My team is horrible against ting-lu + gholdengo teams. My number one priority if remove ghold to defog.
Finally, I have glimmora. I am running an offensive/setup glimmora. Either I can take a surprise K.O with life orbs power boost, or sweep with rock polish. Normally I don’t use LO much, but i find people will frequently click rocks on glimmora expecting rocks back, allowing me to have more wiggle room with life orb recoil. Thus mon also handles non EQ garganacl well, with earth power beating non tera, and sludge wave or tera rock power gem will seal big damage to tera water/grass, especially tera grass.
Any suggestions? I’m mostly looking for item/ev/move/tera tweaks, but replacing a mon is fine too if needed. (also first forum post weeeeeee!)
