Adaptability Blacephalon is a powerful mixed wallbreaker. Choice Scarf makes Blacephalon the fastest relevant Pokemon in the meta, outspeeding threats like Mega Mewtwo X and Pheromosa, allowing it to double as a revenge killer and also offsetting V-create's Speed drops against slower checks like Primal Kyogre. Alternatively, Life Orb provides Blacephalon with more firepower, allowing it to hit benchmarks like OHKOing non-Fur Coat Yveltal as well as Arceus formes after slight chip. Volt Switch retains momentum and chips Pokemon like Ice Scales Primal Kyogre and Ho-Oh into 2HKO range. Poltergeist on Life Orb sets serves as a way to hit the aforementioned Pokemon without receiving Speed drops. Trick lets Blacephalon cripple a defensive Pokemon in matchups where its Choice Scarf is unnecessary. Strength Sap provides crucial longevity to offset Life Orb recoil and entry hazard chip damage. A Naughty nature is chosen to boost V-create's damage, make Imposter users take more damage from Astral Barrage, and improve the matchup against priority moves like Mega Diancie's Extreme Speed and Kartana's Bullet Punch. Blacephalon benefits greatly from entry hazards that chip walls like Primal Kyogre and Fur Coat Arceus formes into 2HKO range. Conversely, due to its Stealth Rock weakness, Blacephalon also strongly appreciates teammates that provide entry hazard removal like Arceus-Ground and Rapid Spin Yveltal. Slow pivots like Primal Kyogre and Mega Steelix can bring Blacephalon in safely. Blacephalon can be Imposter-proofed by Imposter Guzzlord, though other options like Fur Coat Ting-Lu and Mega Audino also work.
