ZU Thwackey

[Zneon]

Thwackey @ Choice Band
Ability: Grassy Surge
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Grassy Glide
- Knock Off
- U-turn
- Wood Hammer

Thwackey stands out in ZU for its amazing ability, strong priority, and excellent wallbreaking power. Its ability Grassy Surge in particular provides very useful support for Pokemon that lack recovery, such as Ferroseed, Qwilfish, and Coalossal, as well as allowing Thwackey to revenge kill faster Pokemon such as Silvally-Ground, Rotom, and Basculin with a devastating Grassy Glide. Knock Off cripples Pokemon that may switch into Thwackey, such as Articuno, Ferroseed, and Tangela. U-turn allows Thwackey to pivot out of the aforementioned Pokemon and use them to gain momentum for its teammates. Thwackey is absolutely essential for Terrain teams due to its ability, and thus, Pokemon that can benefit from its Grassy Surge such as Swoobat, Flapple, and Thievul make for great teammates. Additionally, Pokemon such as Rotom, Basculin, and Manectric can form a VoltTurn core with Thwackey, as they can wear down and offensively pressure shared checks.

Thwackey stands out in ZU for its amazing ability, strong priority and wallbreaking power. Its ability Grassy Surge in particular provides very useful support for Pokemon that lack recovery, such as Ferroseed, Qwilfish, and Wishiwashi Coalossal (Wishiwashi carries Rest most of the time and coal is one of the best partner for thwackey, dealing with skuntank, centiskorch, and ice-types notably), while turning Grassy Glide into a devastating priority move, allowing Thwackey to revenge kill Pokemon that would be faster than it, such as Silvally-Ground, Rotom, and Basculin. Knock Off cripples Pokemon that may switch into Thwackey, such as Articuno, Ferrothorn Ferroseed, and Altaria (tangela should be in the examples). U-turn is great as it allows Thwackey to pivot out of Pokemon such as the aforementioned examples and use them to gain momentum for its teammates. Thwackey is absolutely essential for terrain teams due to its ability and thus, Pokemon that can benefit from its Grassy Surge such as Galarian Rapidash, Swoobat, and Thievul make for great teammates i'd like you to have an example that's a Grassy Glide abuser. Additionally, Pokemon such as Rotom, Basculin, and Manectric can form a VoltTurn core with Thwackey, making them great teammates as they can wear down and offensively pressure shared checks.
