To avoid sparking up more Weavile discussion because for the love of god that's all we talk about lately, Imma start a new discussion:
On Terrakion! thatsajokethatsajoke
What is your current favorite Wallbreaker in the meta?
There's so many good ones flying around right now so I'd love to gather opinions on peoples personal preference. as usual I'll start:
Urshifu-Rapid-Strike @ Mystic Water
Ability: Unseen Fist
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Surging Strikes
- Close Combat
- Thunder Punch / Aqua Jet
- U-turn
A set I've talked about and used many times. Fake Banded Urshifu is a very nice way to catch people off guard. Any unsuspecting victim will see the Surging Damage, think it's banded and swap Ferrothorn thinking nothing of it before taking a HEFTY Close Combat, and eliminating one of the better walls on their team. Sometimes its even okay to take the Barbs damage to further sell the illusion before killing them instantly.
Urshifu also loves the current meta, with Landos, Weaviles, Offensive Trans, and Melmetals running around like crazy, Urshifu takes their hits and strikes back tenfold. Can run T-Punch for Bro, but U-turn gives the momentum plus some good damage already so I usually end up going with Aqua Jet. Other niche options are Bulk Up if you want it to do a little more than just break and Taunt for Demon Mews who try to ruin your life.
