[SET COMMENTS]
Terapagos serves as the tier’s premiere Rapid Spin user that also doubles as an offensive threat, with its ability Tera Shell giving Terapagos a free turn to force progress. Dark Pulse allows Terapagos to deal significant damage to Giratina and Necrozma-DW, and Earth Power allows Terpagos to hit Magearna, Zamazenta-Crowned, Dialga and Garganacl super-effectively. 244 Speed EVs with a Timid Nature allows Terapagos to be faster than Deoxys at +1 speed, while 180 Speed EVs with a Timid Nature is just faster than Zacian at +1 speed. Notable teammates for Terapagos include Alomomola who can Wishpass to Terapagos to restore Tera Shell, Cyclizar who can Shed Tail into Terapagos to get multiple activations of Tera Shell, and Fighting-type resists such as Landorus-T or Necrozma-DW. Terapagos is vulnerable to Pokemon that can ignore Tera Shell, including Kyurem-W, Choiced Solgaleo, Photon Geyser Necrozma-DW, Ogerpon-Hearthflame and Excadrill. Giratina is capable of forcing Terapagos out with phasing. When Terastalized, Terapagos notably gains a major stat boost and purely neutral coverage with Tera Starstorm, in addition to clearing active Weathers and Terrain.
