Giratina-O is most notable for being the only offensive Defog user in Ubers, giving it a distinct niche. Its high bulk and unique typing combined with Levitate give it great use against top metagame threats like Arceus-Ground, Extreme Killer Arceus, and Kyogre. While its offensive stats are a bit low by Ubers standards, it makes up for it with Griseous Core's boost and access to high-Base Power moves like Poltergeist, Draco Meteor, and Hex. Furthermore, Will-O-Wisp, Thunder Wave, and Shadow Sneak are all great utility options at Giratina-O's disposal. Giratina-O is also one of the...

This set takes advantage of Flutter Mane's great strength and coverage to become a fearsome wallbreaker. Power Gem lets Flutter Mane destroy Ho-Oh, an otherwise perfect counter to Flutter Mane, but has very little practical use otherwise. Calm Mind lets Flutter Mane reliably break through defensive Arceus formes like Arceus-Ground and...
Thanks to its incredibly high Special Attack and Speed, Deoxys-A is an strong alternative to Deoxys-S and Glimmora as an entry hazard setter. Shadow Ball does considerable damage to opposing Deoxys-S and Necrozma-DM. Icy Wind limits Deoxys-S to one layer of hazards while giving teammates like Miraidon and Koraidon easier entry into opposing lead Miraidon...
Gliscor has several qualities that make it extremely frustrating for balance and bulky offense teams to deal with. For one, the combination of Poison Heal and Toxic Orb gives it an immunity to status and great passive recovery. Gliscor's Ground / Flying typing offers a myriad of resistances, including an immunity to Spikes and a neutrality to Stealth Rock. When combined with Poison Heal, this essentially makes Gliscor almost entirely unaffected by opposing entry hazards. Additionally, Gliscor has access to a support movepool that most Pokemon could only dream of, featuring Spikes...
[OVERVIEW]
Arceus is debatably Ubers's most terrifying and dangerous setup sweeper thanks to a powerful STAB-boosted Extreme Speed, decent defenses, and a wide array of utility and coverage moves, letting it mix and match to win problematic matchups easily. Arceus also has an excellent defensive profile, allowing it to take on Ghost-types like Lunala and Flutter Mane. Extreme Speed allows Arceus to operate as a revenge killer, making it difficult for opposing setup sweepers like Scale Shot Koraidon, Miraidon, and Rayquaza to sweep. However, Arceus is not without its flaws, as physically bulky...
