Set Details
===================
Revenankh has the potential to be a really strong wallbreaker and potent late-game cleaner, sporting an unresisted STAB combination and dual STAB priority. Its Speed, unfortunately, is quite poor, and its typing leaves it susceptible to the offensive moves of common defensive Pokemon such as Tornadus-T and Tapu Fini. Triage Drain Punch is an extremely useful tool, allowing it to revenge kill Weavile, Zeraora, and Kyurem. Poltergeist helps Revenankh break through many of its checks such as Tapu Lele, Tornadus-T and Zapdos, dealing a hefty amount of damage to all of them, especially after a Bulk Up. Shadow Sneak is a good way for Revenankh to pick off weakened Dragapult and Blacephalon. These EVs ensure that Revenankh is never 2HKOed by Clefable's Moonblast, cannot be OHKOed by Choice Scarf Timid Tapu Lele after a Bulk Up, and guarantee that Spell Tag-boosted Poltergeist into Shadow Sneak will KO pivot Zapdos after using Bulk Up. It also guarantees a 2HKO on Corviknight after a boost. 20 Speed EVs allow Revenankh to outspeed neutral nature Corviknight.

As Revenankh is checked by most physical walls, it requires heavy support. Rillaboom and Melmetal can help overwhelm checks such as Zapdos and Tomohawk while also immediately threatening Tapu Fini. Healing Wish Jumbao, Heal Bell Clefable, and Tapu Fini are all fantastic partners, being able to protect Revenankh against status. Pivoting is essential, as Revenankh can't come in on too many threats. Dragapult can provide that support for Revenankh, pivoting into and dealing with Heatran and Colossoil for it. Krilowatt and Zeraora can both immediately threaten Toxapex, Tornadus-T, and Arghonaut and use Volt Switch to bring Revenankh in safely. Mandibuzz can keep opposing Ghost-types such as Dragapult and Pajantom in check and pivot into Revenankh. Choice item users like Tapu Fini and Blacephalon provide an alternative method of item disruption, seeing as Knock Off support is counterproductive.

Checks and Counters
===================
**Bulky Flying-types**: Zapdos, Tornadus-T, and Tomohawk can all survive any hit from Revenankh and threaten it with Hurricane.

**Bulky Water-types**: Toxapex can utilize Haze to remove Revenankh's boosts while stomaching even boosted Poltergeist, while Arghonaut's Unaware makes it an excellent answer to it regardless of boosts. Tapu Fini can outspeed and 2HKO with Moonblast.

**Fairy-types**: Clefable can take on unboosted Revenankh and 2HKO with Moonblast, while offensive Fairy-types like Jumbao and Choice Specs Tapu Lele can revenge kill it, but they must be wary of switching into Poltergeist.

**Status**: Toxic from defensive Landorus-T and Will-O-Wisp from Astrolotl can cripple Revenankh and limit its sweeping potential.

Set Details
===================
Revenankh has the potential to be a really strong wallbreaker, sporting unresisted STAB and can thus forego coverage This isn't really necessary in the opening sentence, or really at all in the analysis. Its Speed, unfortunately, (add commas around 'unfortunately') is quite poor, (AC) and its typing leaves it susceptible to the offensive moves of common defensive walls Pokemon I wouldn't call Torn-T a wall, so 'Pokemon' probably makes more sense such as Flying- and Fairy-type attacks Tornadus-T and Tapu Fini. Triage Drain Punch is an extremely useful tool, allowing it to revenge kill Weavile, Zeraora, and Kyurem. Poltergeist provides coverage against Fairy-, Psychic-, and Flying-types maybe mention in this sentence that Poltergeist hits like a fucking truck. Shadow Sneak is a good way for Revenankh to pick off weakened Dragapult and Blacephalon. Moonlight provides some more longevity before the opponent gets a chance to attack if Revenankh's teammates can cover the above foes. The EVs provided ensure that Revenankh is never 2HKOed by Clefable's Moonblast, (AC) can never be OHKOed by Scarf Tapu Lele after a Bulk Up and guarantee that the combination of Spell Tag boosted Poltergeist into Shadow Sneak will KO defensive Zapdos.

As Revenankh is checked by most physical walls of the metagame, it requires heavy support. Rillaboom and Melmetal can help overwhelm checks such as Zapdos while also immediately threatening Tapu Fini. Specially defensive Clefable is another fantastic partner, being able to provide cleric support in case Revenankh gets statused. Pivoting is essential, as Revenankh can't come in on too many threats. Dragapult can U-turn into Revenankh who can deal with Heatran and Zeraora for it. Krilowatt and Zeraora can both immediately threaten Toxapex, Tornadus-T, and Arghonaut and use Volt Switch to bring Revenankh in safely. Mandibuzz can keep opposing Ghost-types such as Dragapult and Pajantom in check and pivot into Revenankh.

You should note that Scarf Lele cannot OHKO Rev at +1 Def with any move. You could do this with another sentence or just specify specs Lele. Relevant calc:
252 SpA Tapu Lele Psychic vs. 112 HP / 252 SpD Revenankh in Psychic Terrain: 284-336 (81.3 - 96.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Mandibuzz can keep opposing Ghost-types such as Dragapult and Pajantom in check and pivot into Revenankh. i'd add a sentence about trick users like fini/blace cus rev means you're mostly barred from using knock off on the same team and trick users can provide alternative item disruption while potentially giving rev setup opportunities

also add a section about status cus rev absolutely despises being burned or toxiced

[Lasen]

ftr can u spoiler tag it instead of quoting it next time so I can c/p more easily? thanks.

Shadow Sneak is a good way for Revenankh to pick off weakened Dragapult and Blacephalon and avoid being revenge killed by faster Fighting-type resists.

I don't know how I feel about adding this; it will barely do any damage.

Zapdos comment was supposed to be after a Bulk Up, edited to reflect that.



implemented tho

Poltergeist provides coverage against Fairy-, Psychic-, and Flying-types and is Revenankh's strongest attack. It's less that Poltergeist is coverage for Rev and more that it hits like a truck, so I'd reword this. something like "Poltergeist hits many of Revenankh's checks such as Tapu Lele and Tornadus-T incredibly hard, especially after a Bulk Up." would work Shadow Sneak is a good way for Revenankh to pick off weakened Dragapult and Blacephalon. The EVs provided ensure that Revenankh is never 2HKOed by Clefable's Moonblast, cannot be OHKOed by Timid Choice Scarf Tapu Lele after a Bulk Up, and guarantee that the combination of Spell Tag boosted Poltergeist into Shadow Sneak will KO offensive Zapdos offensive Zap is not the set we are looking to hit this roll on. Call it pivot Zapdos, which is what the CAP set is. You could also mention Poltergeist 2HKOing Corvi after a BU, but up to you. after using Bulk Up. 20 Speed EVs allow Revenankh to outspeed neutral Corviknight.

I honestly think that adding a section for status here would be good. Defensive Lando can Toxic it, Astro can Wisp it if Rev isn't too boosted, all of which kill its sweeping chances.
