[SET]
Corviknight @ Leftovers (Flying)
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 12 Atk / 244 Def or 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Impish Nature
- Body Press
- Iron Head / U-turn
- Roost
- Defog / Iron Defense
Corviknight has many different ways to fit on numerous Flying-type teams due to the many different roles it can play, thanks to its great bulk, phenomenal movepool, and solid typing in Steel/Flying. Pair that with its ability in Pressure, however, Corviknight becomes a near immovable object that awaits the encounters of unstoppable forces, having the durability to stall out many undesirable foes for its teammates.
Body Press is the premier move of this set. it it allows Corviknight to crush pesky Rock- and Steel-types like Hisuian Goodra, Ogerpon-C, and Excadrill, which most Flying-types struggle to hit or get KOed by. On the other hand, Iron Head decimates Ice- and Fairy-types such as Choice Specs Kyurem, Alolan Ninetales, and Fluttermane, while also threatening Gargancl with the chance to flinch it. Roost keeps Corviknight healthy the longer it stays in and allows it to prolong its stall time longer. However, this does come with the downside of loosing its Flying-type for a turn, so Corviknight needs to very careful around Ground-type foes like Landorus and Mamoswine, or foes who carry Ground-type coverage overall.
