Monotype Landorus-T (Flying)

[Giyu]

Flying

Landorus-Therian @ Leftovers
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 HP / 156 Def / 88 SpD / 12 Spe
Impish Nature
- Earthquake
- Smack Down
- Bulk Up
- Substitute

Landorus-T smacks down the heavens and leaves its foes quaking in their boots with its Bulk Up set! Earthquake does quick work of Skeledirge, Sandy Shocks, and Hisuian Goodra, as well as nailing would-be checks such as Corviknight, Rotom-W, and Zapdos with Smack Down. Bulk Up escalates Landorus-T's potency behind Substitute, notably allowing it to break through Amoonguss, Gastrodon, and Blissey after a single Attack boost. Substitute provides Landorus-T an immunity to status moves from the likes of Toxapex and the aforementioned Amoonguss and Skeledirge, all while not being broken by Amoonguss's Giga Drain or Foul Play with the given EV spread. Corviknight and Choice Scarf Galarian Zapdos provide buffers against Ice-type Pokemon like Chien-Pao and Baxcalibur while also checking Flutter Mane, Choice Specs Greninja, and Ice Spinner Great Tusk. Enamorus threatens Hydreigon, Urshifu-R, and the aforementioned Baxcalibur and provides occaisonal Healing Wish support. Choice Band Dragonite is a great revenge killer and wallbreaker, removing chipped Meowscarada, Azumarill, and Barraskewda, as well as heavily weakening Quagsire, Slowbro, and Great Tusk. Galarian Moltres and Iron Jugulis are great teammates in the Ghost and Psychic matchups, heavily weakening teams for Landorus-T.

Iron Hands

0 Atk Landorus-Therian Earthquake vs. 0 HP / 116 Def Iron Hands: 252-296 (56.1 - 65.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO Copied
-1 100+ Atk Iron Hands Ice Punch vs. 252 HP / 156+ Def Landorus-Therian: 196-232 (51.3 - 60.7%) -- 88.7% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery Copied
While it is true that Landorus-T beats Iron Hands, it doesn't particularly *want* to. I'd replace this with Sandy Shocks (cannot do anything to Landorus-T)

Sableye

While your statement is true, Sableye will almost surely use Will-O-Wisp, severely damaging Landorus-T's ability to do meaningful damage. Sableye can also just Encore you and switch out.

Landorus-T smacks down the heavens and leaves the opponent its foes players aren't affected by what lando does quaking in their boots with its Bulk Up set! Earthquake does quick work of Skeledirge, Sandy Shocks, and Hisuian Goodra, (ac) as well as nailing would-be checks such as Corviknight, Rotom-W, and Zapdos with the aid of Smack Down. Bulk Up escalates Landorus-T's potency behind Substitute, notably allowing Landorus-T it to break through Amoonguss, Gastrodon, and Blissey after a single Attack boost. Substitute provides Landorus-T an immunity to status ailments moves from the likes of Toxapex and the aforementioned Amoonguss and Skeledirge, all while not being broken by Amoonguss's Giga Drain or Foul Play with the given EV spread. Corviknight and Choice Scarf Galarian Zapdos provide a buffer buffers since you say "and" implying both on one team against Ice-type Pokemon like Chien-Pao and Baxcalibur while also checking Flutter Mane, Choice Specs Greninja, and non-Ice Spinner Great Tusk harboring Ice Spinner. Enamorus threatens Hydreigon, Urshifu-R, and the aforementioned Baxcalibur and provides occaisonal Healing Wish support. Choice Band Dragonite is a great revenge killer and wallbreaker, capable of removing chipped down Meowscarada, Azumarill, and Barraskewda, (ac) as well as heavily weakening Quagsire, Slowbro, and Great Tusk. Galarian Moltres and Iron Jugulis are great teammates in the Ghost and Psychic matchups, heavily weakening teams for Landorus-T.
