Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 12 HP / 240 Atk / 112 Def / 144 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Belly Drum
- Bullet Punch
- Drain Punch
- Knock Off
Hariyama uses its belly as a drum to sweep unsuspecting foes! Drain Punch helps Hariyama keep itself healthy after draining its own HP, making revenge killing attempts much harder. Bullet Punch deals with faster foes that may attempt to revenge kill it such as Espeon, Gardevoir, and Sylveon and can even OHKO foes such as Heracross, Flamigo, Tera Fairy Slowbro, and Oricorio-G if Hariyama has Terastallized into a Steel-type. Knock Off aids by hitting Slowbro and Oricorio-E, which would otherwise wall Hariyama and can cripple it with Thunder Wave or threaten it with Hurricane, respectively. 12 HP and 144 Special Defense EVs allow Tera Steel Hariyama to set up Belly Drum on Rotom-H's Overheat after switching into one layer of Spikes, while the 112 Defense EVs allow it to tank Primeape's Drain Punch. Hariyama works well with other offensive threats. Memento Gardevoir can cripple the offensive capabilities of foes, giving Hariyama space to set up. Mismagius can shut down Slowbro and threaten out Oricorio-G, two foes that Hariyama needs to play around. Krookodile is another fantastic partner, setting up Stealth Rock and forcing Crocalor out.
