Necrozma @ Weakness Policy
Ability: Prism Armor
Tera Type: Poison
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Calm Mind
- Stored Power
- Heat Wave
- Moonlight
On a color with many strong attackers and relatively few good physical walls, Stored Power Necrozma provides a defensive backbone to Black without sacrificing any momentum and acting as a late-game sweeper itself. Calm Mind and Weakness Policy can send the damage output of Stored Power to sky-high levels, allowing Necrozma to sweep if an opponent plays a single turn incorrectly. Moonlight serves as a way for Necrozma to heal off any damage it takes while setting up, and it additionally allows Necrozma to act as a defensive wall before it's time to sweep. Heat Wave is used to deal damage prior to setting up or sidestep Pokemon immune to Stored Power, such as Meowscarada or Lokix. Tera Poison is a solid defensive typing, with none of its weaknesses overlapping with Psychic, that enables weakness-related mind games and grants an immunity to Toxic to preserve a sweep. As teammates, Darkrai and Weavile appreciate Necrozma's ability to block Fighting-types, while they can contribute meaningful damage for its sweep later, allowing Stored Power to pick up KOs with less boosts needed.
