Mamoswine @ Life Orb
Ability: Oblivious
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Earthquake
- Icicle Crash
- Ice Shard
- Knock Off / Stealth Rock

Mamoswine is one strong mammoth; not many Pokemon can claim to survive two of its attacks. The only Pokemon in UU that resist Mamoswine's STAB attacks are Bronzong and Rotom-W, both of which are hit really hard by Knock Off. Stealth Rock can be used instead of Knock Off, since Mamoswine's offensive presence allows it to set the entry hazard up pretty reliably, but it's weak to Defog Rotom-W and usually just wants to attack. Ice Shard is also helpful, as many of the faster Pokemon in the tier like Noivern and Roserade can't handle it at all. Oblivious protects Mamoswine from Krookodile and Incineroar's Intimidate. Mamoswine struggles with certain bulky Water-types like Rotom-W and Slowbro, so Grass-types like Celebi, Roserade, and Zarude make for good partners; Zarude can also pressure Bronzong for Mamoswine. Electric-types like Heliolisk and Rotom-C can handle Rotom-W and Slowbro too while also pressuring other Pokemon Mamoswine dislikes such as Mantine.

Looks good, I’d try and make a comment on how it’s not ideal as a rocker though as Mamoswine really wants to take every opportunity to wallbreak when it’s in (being walled by washtom is rough too especially when it’s also a premier fogger).

defo put mentions of slowbro somewhere, maybe when you talk about knock to say how removing boots lets you make more progress (pig)vs it.

clarify that pain split is what makes washtom such an issue in particular as even offensive sets can still be a nuisance with this.

idk your word Count since doing this on phone but if you have space you could also comment oneither rose + zarude helping to pressure coba either into shuca range or force pop the balloon, or roses spikes support pairing Which especially pairs well with knock

Qc 1/1
