Choice Scarf Great Tusk is an exceptional revenge killer because of its great bulk, terrifying Attack stat, and unique STAB combination, allowing it to pummel many threats like Chien-Pao, Baxcalibur, and Flutter Mane. Earthquake may be used instead of Headlong Rush to avoid contact and the stat drops at the cost of dealing less damage. Ice Spinner hits Dragonite and Garchomp. Knock Off greatly hinders Leftovers-reliant Pokemon like Bronzong and Rotom-W, and it leaves common Heavy-Duty Boots users such as Slowbro and Amoonguss to be susceptible to entry hazards from teammates like Clodsire and Ting-Lu.
Iron Treads, Quagsire, and Ting-Lu are great switch-ins to faster threats such as Choice Scarf Greninja and Gengar, as well as Baxcalibur after a Dragon Dance. Clodsire appreciates the removal of Ground-types like Ting-Lu and Iron Treads as well as the aforementioned Ice-types and Gastrodon appreciates the removal of Grass-types such as Meowscarada and Breloom. In return, Clodsire and Gastrodon switch into Water-type attacks from Quaquaval and Pelipper and set entry hazards to enhance Great Tusk's wallbreaking. Furthermore, Clodsire cripples Quagsire and Rotom-W with Toxic and Gastrodon prevents setup with Clear Smog. Sandy Shocks and Garchomp can aid against Corviknight and Amoonguss to alleviate Steel and Poison matchups, respectively.
