u live 2 spinners with 1 turn of terrain recovery yes this is optimal i checked, horn leech kills after rocks
+1 252+ SpA Raging Bolt Thunderbolt vs. 116 HP / 0 SpD Tapu Bulu: 131-155 (42.2 - 50%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Grassy Terrain recovery

did not ev for this since this takes less evs than the optimal shifu bench but u live twice after 1 turn terrain, sd up then kill it with ur z move

evs are optimal, speed for zone, rest in atk

if u want to run lefties over fight z and re-ev for rocks damage u can but change some moves so u fit high horsepower

ping me if u want the bulu to live the moves after 2 turns of terrain

Congratulations to glitched for winning this week of Break this Core!

Our new core will be Great Tusk + Iron Moth!

:sv/Great Tusk: :sv/Iron Moth:

How will YOU break this core? Submissions end Friday!

Iron Moth @ Booster Energy
Ability: Quark Drive
Tera Type: Ground
EVs: 124 HP / 132 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Fiery Dance
- Sludge Wave
- Energy Ball
- Tera Blast

Great Tusk @ Booster Energy
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Rapid Spin
- Ice Spinner
- Headlong Rush
- Bulk Up
 
Latias-Mega (F) @ Latiasite
Ability: Levitate
Tera Type: Dragon
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Calm Mind
- Psychic
- Roost
- Aura Sphere

With Calm Mind, Mega Latias is able to effectively neutralize iron moth’s increasingly dangerous boosts from fiery dance and is able to take a few hits from great tusk, while dealing great damage to both with Psychic, a rare move but allows Mtias to swiftly deal with BU tusk easier.

132 SpA Iron Moth Sludge Wave vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Latias-Mega: 106-126 (29.1 - 34.6%) -- 5.9% chance to 3HKO

4 Atk Great Tusk Ice Spinner vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Latias-Mega: 124-148 (34 - 40.6%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

0 SpA Latias-Mega Psychic vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Great Tusk: 428-506 (98.6 - 116.5%) -- 93.8% chance to OHKO

0 SpA Latias-Mega Aura Sphere vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Tera Steel Great Tusk: 254-300 (58.5 - 69.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

This means that even without clicking cm on mtias, the core is still able to broken, unlike with psyshock where tusk can more easily overwhelm it over time. Tusk can’t really setup bus either, because Tera steel is quite telegraphed from it. Calm Mind just makes playing around iron moth easier.
 
Dondozo @ Leftovers
Ability: Unaware
Tera Type: Dragon
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Careful Nature
- Waterfall
- Curse
- Rest
- Sleep Talk

SpDef Dozo is a little strange but aside from allowing it to take hits from Iron Moth, it also allows it to handle other special attackers like Heatran, Iron Crown, Mega Charizard Y and Volcarona after Tera, and soak hits from Scarf or Calm Mind Tapu Lele. Its immense physical bulk and HP ensure it can still handle all the physical threats it needs to even without max investment.

Dondozo can switch into a Fiery Dance, ignoring Iron Moth's boosts and eventually beat it with Waterfall alongside Sleep Talk and Tera.

132 SpA Iron Moth Energy Ball vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Dondozo: 180-214 (35.7 - 42.4%) -- 93.8% chance to 3HKO after Leftovers recovery
132 SpA Iron Moth Sludge Wave vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Tera Dragon Dondozo: 142-168 (28.1 - 33.3%) -- 91.1% chance to 4HKO after Leftovers recovery

+1 0 Atk Dondozo Waterfall vs. 0 HP / 124 Def Iron Moth: 326-386 (108.3 - 128.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO

4 Atk Great Tusk Headlong Rush vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Dondozo: 145-172 (28.7 - 34.1%) -- 99.3% chance to 4HKO after Leftovers recovery

+1 0 Atk Dondozo Waterfall vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Great Tusk: 204-242 (47 - 55.7%) -- 77.3% chance to 2HKO
 
:blastoise:
Blastoise @ White Herb
Ability: Torrent
Tera Type: Grass
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Shell Smash
- Hydro Pump
- Ice Beam
- Tera Blast

Blastoise has enough bulk to survive an Energy Ball from Iron Moth or a Rapid Spin + Headlong Rush combo from Tusk (thanks to white herb), and can OHKO both with Hydro Pump after a Shell Smash. Simples!

:blastoise: +2 252 SpA Blastoise Hydro Pump vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Great Tusk: 896-1056 (206.4 - 243.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO
:blastoise: +2 252 SpA Blastoise Hydro Pump vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Tera Steel Great Tusk: 448-528 (103.2 - 121.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO

:iron-moth: 132 SpA Tera Ground Iron Moth Sludge Wave vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Blastoise: 145-172 (48.4 - 57.5%) -- 94.5% chance to 2HKO
:great-tusk: 4 Atk Great Tusk Rapid Spin vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Blastoise: 45-54 (15 - 18%) -- possible 6HKO
:great-tusk: 4 Atk Great Tusk Headlong Rush vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Blastoise: 163-193 (54.5 - 64.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
