Electabuzz @ Choice Specs
Ability: Static
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Thunderbolt
- Volt Switch
- Psychic
- Focus Blast / Toxic

The Crown Tundra DLC reintroduced to NFE Electabuzz, a fearsome pivot capable of handling metagame staples such as Golbat and Mareanie with its powerful Thunderbolt and Volt Switch. Psychic provides a strong neutral hit against the likes of Thwackey, Marshtomp, and opposing Electabuzz, and Focus Blast nails Ferroseed, Piloswine, and Klang. Toxic is a nice alternative over Focus Blast, allowing Electabuzz to wear down troublesome foes such as Tangela and Galarian Corsola for both itself and its teammates. Electabuzz synergizes well with offensive partners such as Gurdurr, Thwackey, and Raboot, which appreciate it threatening physical walls and providing pivot support; in return, they can threaten checks like Ferroseed and Marshtomp. Knock Off support from Gurdurr and Thwackey is also fantastic, enabling Electabuzz to better break through specially defensive walls like Clefairy and Galarian Corsola.

The Crown Tundra DLC reintroduced to NFE Electabuzz, a fearsome pivot capable of handling metagame staples, such as Golbat and Mareanie, with its powerful Thunderbolt and Volt Switch. Electabuzz's coverage is also versatile, with Psychic providing a strong neutral hit against the likes of Thwackey, Marshtomp, and opposing Electabuzz and Focus Blast nailing Ferroseed, Piloswine, and Klang. Toxic is a nice alternative over Focus Blast, allowing Electabuzz to wear down troublesome foes, such as Tangela and Galarian Corsola, for both itself and its teammates. Electabuzz synergies well with offensive partners such as Gurdurr, Thwackey, and Raboot that appreciate it threatening Golbat physical walls (Golbat is mentioned prior, and broadening its use here to physical walls still applies while also alludes to Koffing, Togetic, Slowpoke, ect.) and providing pivot support; in return, they can threaten checks such as Ferroseed and Piloswine Marshtomp (Marsh is a bigger problem as its often a special wall and can tank more hits while Pilo is hurt more by Focus Blast). Knock Off support from the likes of Gurdurr and Thwackey is also fantastic, enabling Electabuzz to better break through specially defensive walls like Clefairy and Galarian Corsola.

Good job on this, looks great. I'm a little biased with this last part here, but if you wanted to include a replay, here's mine where I face Jett week 1 of OMWC
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen8nfe-1238468413
I like this replay because I used the same set with a lot of the same team support mentioned here. Another funny thing about it is the only move I click is Psychic–a full 10 times–because it's a lot safer for checking Golbat when the opponent's Electric immunity is still around.
I'll leave it up to you if you want to include it or not. QC 1/1
