Deoxys-Speed @ Life Orb
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 72 HP / 216 Atk / 220 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Photon Geyser
- Low Kick
- Knock Off
- Lunar Dance / Spikes

Deoxys-S warps into STABmons, providing a blend of offense and utility for its team! With its high Speed, Deoxys-S can threaten a majority of the tier's offensive threats like Weavile and Iron Valiant while also pressuring defensive staples like Toxapex and Tyranitar. Low Kick topples common Dark-types like Ting-Lu, Tyranitar, and Kingambit as well as Steel-types like Heatran. Knock Off smacks Gholdengo and Psychic-types like Latias and Meloetta. Lunar Dance lets Deoxys-S support a teammate. Spikes is also a great option, since Deoxys-S easily forces many switch thanks to its high Speed; the extra chip damage against Dark-types like Ting-Lu in particular is greatly appreciated. The given EVs allow it to 2HKO Ting-Lu with Low Kick after Stealth Rock and outspeed +1 Great Tusk. Rotom-W is a great partner, as it can threaten switch-ins to Deoxys-S like Corviknight, Landorus-T, and Gliscor while safely pivoting it in with Volt Switch. Offensive teammates like Iron Valiant, Ogerpon formes, and Raging Bolt also appreciate it threatening their checks like Toxapex, Gholdengo, and Tyranitar, respectively, and give them a second chance with Lunar Dance or chip their checks down with Spikes.
