![]() ![]() Substitute - Protects Serperior against major status problems, critical hits and super effective moves and allows it to set up the strategy. In Multi battles, forces a switch and helps the team in case it faints. Leech Seed: It heals Serperior and with the boost from Big Root, it almost restores all HP lost by using Substitute. Taunt stops you from being taunted, and also stops entry hazards. Reflect and Light Screen make all of your Pokémon tanks, as it gives the team a +2 to their defences whilst the screens are up. It can take more hits when hidden behind the Substitute. Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) Nice Speed, nice bulk, and a good support movepool, Serperior makes for a good screens lead. Def, this way Serperior will become bulkier and lethal, the more damage it does, the more HP it drains. Attk it´ll do more damage.Ĭalm Mind: Increases Sp. Giga Drain - STAB Move, deals damage and recovers some HP, gets a boost from Big Root and Overgrow ability when it has low HP. Item: Big Root (It works better with this moveset than Leftovers). Nature: Timid or Modest (preferred but it´s up to you).ĮV: 252 Def, 252 Speed, 4 HP (move first to set it up). The OM Leader’s Choice is Tag Team Singles, a bring-4-pick-2 metagame where the Pokemon take turns trick-or-treating (or engaging in battle). answered by Ætherborn RogueĪbility: Overgrow (don´t have access to Contrary ability yet). So, better than before and an added element of surprise if you wish. Unfortunately, this build gets smoked by defensive Heatran variants, but if you have reason to believe it is an offensive variant and you have a SD set up, Aqua Tail does OHKO the offensive Smogon build. I wanna get back into Pokémon showdown, but I don’t have a good team. As long as opposing Gliscor do not carry a jank off-meta Flying move, you can safely pressure or 2HKO those as well after a Dance. It also provides a surprise whack at Landorus-T, who may have thought it safe to set up since you were intimidated. Contrary Serperior is also excellent at breaking. ![]() Obviously this will help in Fire coverage - Volcarona pre-QD, and some Victini variants will fall to this (though you could hit Victini for even more with a Knock Off). Mega Charizard X 6-0es most of the Tapu Bulu / Heatran / Tornadus-T balance teams are are common at the moment. The other notable addition to Serp's arsenal is Aqua Tail. It has an improved Knock Off, which cuts down Blacephalon, Victini, and Jirachi with relative ease (as well as Alakazam who would be evolution-turn OHKO'd regardless of if you danced or not, if I remember how the mechanic works correctly), and can cripple incoming switch ins that our regal snek would have trouble dealing with - which is more than I'd like to admit, but the only use of this set is to be a surprise / fill a role your team doesn't have. While still not quite as popular as Contrary Leaf Storm, the niche of a physical Serperior has somewhat improved over the generations. ![]()
