Skarmory @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Sturdy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Spikes
- Whirlwind
- Body Press
- Roost

While sometimes outclassed by other Steel-types such as Corviknight and Celesteela, Skarmory's superb physical bulk allows it to check physical attackers such as Bisharp for its teammates. Skarmory's access to Whirlwind is a tremendous asset for it, as it can shuffle opposing teams while slowly racking up entry hazard damage. Body Press threatens Ice- and Dark-types such as Galarian Darmanitan, Weavile, and Zarude. Rocky Helmet punishes physical attackers, particularly Weavile and Melmetal, and pivots that utilize U-turn and Flip Turn. Knock Off users like Landorus-T and Tornadus-T make great teammates, as they can remove foe's Heavy-Duty Boots and make them vulnerable to Spikes. Wallbreakers such as Galarian Moltres and Dragonite appreciate Spikes support from Skarmory, as it allows them to be more potent sweepers.

Often being spotted on Balance teams, While sometimes outshined by other Steel-types Corviknight and Celesteela, Skarmory's superb defence stat physical bulk allows it a strong niche in checking to check man physical attackers such as Melmetal for its teammates. (it's not seen often atm) Its excellent defensive typing allows it to provide teams with a key neutrality to Ice-type attacks. (seems obvious) Skarmory's access to Whirlwind is a tremendous asset for it, as it can shuffle opposing teams while slowly racking up chip damage. Body Press is used to reduce passivity, as well as to deal with foes such as Terrakion, which would otherwise pose a big threat to its teammates. Body Press allows Skarmory to pose a massive threat to Ice- and Dark-types such as Darmanitan-Galar, Weavile, and Zarude. Roost provides Skarmory with reliable recovery, allowing it to preserve Sturdy and consistently provide an answer to foes such as Bisharp. (doesn't need to be explained) Rocky Helmet is used to punish physical attackers, particularly Weavile, Melmetal and Urshifu-R, and pivots that utilize U-turn and Flip Turn. Knock Off users like Landorus-T and Tornadus-T make great teammates, as they can remove foes Heavy-Duty Boots and make them vulnerable to Spikes. Wallbreakers such as Galarian Moltres and Dragonite appreciate spikes support from Skarmory, as it allows it to become a more potent sweeper. In return, Galarian Moltres can check Spectrier, who would otherwise OHKO Skarmory.
