[SET COMMENTS]
* With Flame Body, several physical attackers like Annihilape, Meowscarada, and Mimikyu can be crippled on contact, which helps a lot.
* Quiver Dance lets Volcarona sweep, alongside the possibility of Fiery Dance further boosting Special Attack. Fire Blast can be used if greater damage output is wanted.
* Giga Drain is the best coverage option for Volcarona, as it helps it deal with Water-type Pokémon, as well as recover a good amount of HP.
* Water-type Tera Blast helps Volcarona deal with Pokemon like Skeledirge, Ceruledge, and other Volcarona. Volcarona with Bug Buzz can also be used, as it is a very powerful STAB move and helps Volcarona deal with Hydreigon.
Tera Types
========
**Water-type**: Terastallizing into the Water typing nullifies Volcarona's most common weakness in Rock-type. Tera Blast damages Hydreigon decently prior to Terastallizing. Water-type Tera Blast is also the best option Volcarona has to hit Skeledirge.
**Grass-type**: The Grass typing strengthens Giga Drain and nullifies Volcarona's weakness to Water-types, most notably helping against Dondozo and Rotom-W.
**Fire-type**: Terastallizing into Fire typing makes Volcarona's Fire Blast even more powerful.
Items
========
**Heavy-Duty Boots**: It is the best option on Volcarona, as it circumvents its crippling Stealth Rock weakness.
**Sitrus Berry**: Sitrus Berry helps Volcarona accrue boosts more easily with Quiver Dance and lets it avoid being 2HKOed by Mimikyu and Dragonite.
**Life Orb**: This is the most reliable tool for helping Volcarona sweep in the late-game.
