Tapu Bulu @ Grassy Seed
Ability: Grassy Surge
EVs: 240 HP / 12 Atk / 200 Def / 56 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Wood Hammer
- Dazzling Gleam / Disable
- Taunt
- Bulk Up
Tapu Bulu has gained popularity as an anti-meta threat in 1v1, having uniquely great matchups versus a variety of the tier's biggest threats, such as Tapu Fini, Aromatisse, Regidrago, both Urshifus, and Zygarde. This set outspeeds Aggron and survives a Poison Jab from Urshifu thanks to the Grassy Seed. Dazzling Gleam allows Tapu Bulu to beat Urshifu-S, while Disable allows Tapu Bulu to outlast many threats that would otherwise threaten to 2HKO it, such as Aggron, Ferrothorn, and many Choice-locked Pokemon. Taunt allows Tapu Bulu to beat stall-oriented Zygarde sets and other Pokemon reliant on status moves, such as Galarian Corsola. Bulk Up and Taunt together allow Tapu Bulu to beat Zygarde reliably, preventing setup and eventually OHKOing Zygarde with a +3 Wood Hammer. To take on the 1v1 metagame, Tapu Bulu often is paired with Entei, Volcanion, Landorus-T, and Zygarde, as they cover common Fire-, Steel- and Poison-types that threaten Tapu Bulu.
