The rankings on the site are fairly good but they lack a lot of detail. I'd like to get those improved and also have the rankings perfected. Karxrida Corruption of Shadows. Giratina should not listed as untiered in the masterpost unless it's specified as the Diamond and Pearl one. You can get it from the forced encounter in Platinum. Starly for S. Getting Intimidate upon evolution at Level 14 is also a sweet asset and Staratpor speaks for itself.
Just assume you want to play through in a relatively fast time frame. Privacy Policy. Azelf Availability: Late Stats: Above average Movepool: Very wide Additional Comments: Although it is available very late in the game it is available at a high level of 50 which compensates for this.
Also has very high Attack, Special Attack, and Speed stats. However, it needs to be traded to fully evolve. Arcanine's Base Stats is well balanced with Attack and 95 Speed. By using its ability Intimidate and Will-O-Wisp together, you can significantly lower the opponent's Attack. Aegislash has the Stance Change ability, allowing it to fulfill a role as both physical attacker and tank. The variant here focuses on Weakness Policy and sweeping teams with buffed attack, as well as speed from Autotomize.
A tankier variant is also possible. Dracozolt is a good counter to Rotom and also works really well with Dynamax due to its varied move pool. Access to a flying move also gives it a speed boost post-Dynamax, allowing it to get Power Bolt Beaks off more reliably.
Braviary is an excellent Dynamax sweeper with access to STAB Max Airstream and a great ability that can boost its attack power when its stats are lowered. Max Knuckle and U-Turn also give it a surprising amount of flexibility. Zeraora's total base stats, coupled with an unrivaled Speed and a strong monotyping make it unstoppable. Its signature ability Plasma Fists has a power of , which deals devastating damage.
Access to Grass Knot means it doesn't have to be so scared of Ground types, either. Scizor's Technician ability gives moves that are under 60 power a 1. A 4x weakness to Fire and the lack of Pursuit in Gen 8 has hurt it somewhat, however.
It is quite powerful in Double Battles, however. Its ability Defiant also gives it a great attack boost when its stats are lowered, making it a good counter to Intimidate users. Consider a Life Orb or a Focus Sash if you're having trouble staying alive. Rillaboom is on the list for similar reasons as Cinderace. He is slower, but significantly bulkier. His move pool gives him access to Drum Beating, which is only 80 Power but lowers the opponents speed, which is quite useful.
Conkeldurr's base Attack is absolutely unstoppable. Drain Punch and Mach Punch are recommended moves here for their extra effects. Grimmsnarl has the unique role of setting up defensive buffs for your team using Light Clay and its Prankster ability.
This will allow you to set up and sweep with other Pokemon. It can also be a safe counter for common dragon types like Dragapult. The use of Shell Smash allows Cloyster to drastically increase its attack capabilities and take out major threats. Its high defenses also allow it take a hit before setting up to sweep.
Don't be thrown off by its low stats, Diggersby shines because of its Hidden Ability "Huge Power", which doubles its Attack. Give it an Assault Vest and Dynamax it to deal massive damage. Choice Scarf builds are also possible! Kommo-o's high Physical and Special attack capabilities makes this one of the most versatile Attackers on this list. Although can fall a bit short on HP and multiple weaknesses, Kommo-o still owns a formidable movesets and stats to be used competitively. This is a Gigantamax specific build which makes use of Centiskorch's decent attack stat and good movepool.
It can give many steel types, including the popular Corviknight, a run for their money. G-Max Centiferno also traps opponents in for turns, forcing them to fight you whether they like it or not. Be wary of Centiskorch's 4x Rock weakness and avoid bringing it vs.
Stealth Rock users, however! Haxorus occupies the important role of checking Mimikyu, due to its massive attack power and Mold Breaker ability. Penetrating its Disguise, as well as Rotom's Levitate, allows it to deal well with 2 major threats in the meta.
It also works well as a Dynamaxer and has a variety of move options available to it. Drednaw has high attack and access to a strong Water GMax move which also lays Stealth Rocks around the field. This is excellent, but needs to be used relatively early in the fight in order to get the most use out of it. It works well on a Rain team, as it can't set up its own rain as this is a Gigantamax build.
Blastoise is a Shell Smash user with fairly high defensive stats and an excellent move pool. In addition to the 4 moves listed above, it also has access to Dragon, Rock, and Dark moves, meaning it's highly customizable as well. Durant is a surprisingly strong physical attacker that has fairly decent speed. Its steel typing allows it to deal with common fairy threats, and the priority move First Impression is great for revenge kills.
Incineroar has excellent overall stats, all at the expense of its rather low 60 speed. However, this can be supplemented by Dynamaxing and using Max Airstream. This coupled with Intimidate will allow it to be a surprising mix of bulky, deadly, and kind of fast.
There is also an Assault Vest variant of this on our detailed build page, so make sure to check that out. Hydreigon's high Special Attack stat, coupled with a generally high base stat pool, allows him to be a formidable threat. Its dark typing can also come in handy to deal with ghost threats like Dragapult. Heat Rotom's typing and stats make it a formidable threat.
The fire type lets it demolish Ferrothorn and Corviknight, which are two common threats. Wash Rotom's typing is simply excellent, being weak to only the Grass type. Hydro Pump also gives amazing coverage against many bulky Ground and Rock threats. A Togekiss with the move Nasty Plot can set up and destroy a team with ease.
Adding Roost as a means of recovery is also recommended. If you want to stall a bit longer and power up more with Nasty Plot, HP and Speed are okay too. Great typing and a whopping Sp. Atk, along with access to strong moves like Fire Blast and Shadow Ball make Chandelure a stellar attacker.
Supplementing its low speed with a Choice Scarf is also a good idea. It is also possible to do Trick Room builds here as well! Sylveon's Hidden Ability Pixellate causes Normal moves to become the Fairy type and deal more damage. This can lead to massive damage from the move Hyper Voice, especially when coupled with a Choice Scarf.
Tankier variants with Leftovers are also quite effective. EV allocation recommended in the table above is for Choice Scarf user. Use if want to use Leftovers, allocate EV to Sp. Attack and HP. Inteleon's high Speed and Special Attack and mono-typing will make it an excellent sweeper. Consider using Life Orb or Choice Specs. Duraludon's great overall stats and great typing allow it to handle many major threats.
An Assault Vest will make up for its lower Sp. Def stat, while the move Rock Tomb allows it to slow down opponents. Mow Rotom is being seen more frequently in the meta these days as a direct response to Quagsire, Seismitoad, and Gastrodon, against which it can deal 4x damage.
A Choice Scarf build is also worth considering! Glaceon's Sp. Atk stat easily makes it a contender with many top tier special attackers. The move Freeze-Dry also allows it to deal super-effective damage against Water types, which are particularly common in the current meta.
