Klinklang @ Electrium Z
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 12 HP / 252 Atk / 244 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Shift Gear
- Gear Grind
- Wild Charge
- Magnet Rise

Klinklang is an underrated sweeper whose access to the combination of Shift Gear and Magnet Rise allows it to easily steamroll many offensive teams that depend on Pokemon like Donphan and Nidoqueen to check Steel-types. Its great defensive typing grants it plenty of setup opportunities against the likes of Mega Sceptile and Gardevoir, and its decent Speed quickly turns it into a scary setup sweeper after a Shift Gear boost. Electrium Z lets Klinklang blow up bulky Water-types such as Slowbro and Mega Blastoise and pose a threat to bulky offensive and balance teams. It also stands out as one of the few available offensive Steel-types in RU, though its lack of defensive value holds it back from competing with Metagross. This makes building with Klinklang particularly difficult and unique, however, a team built around supporting Klinklang's strengths and covering its weaknesses is likely to bring about excellent results.
