this meta looks super fun for weather, so ill drop the two big contenders:
Blacephalon @ Choice Specs
Ability: Beast Boost
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature / Timid Nature
- Solar Beam
- Overheat
- Psyshock
- Knock Off / Trick
although you do stack more stealth rock weakness on sun by running blace, honestly you dont need anymore than this. solar beam becomes basically a nuclear fire stab (180 bp average under sun) and you get a much stronger ghost stab with overheat. i predict water resists no longer exist with this on the field.
Kingdra @ Choice Specs
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Hurricane
- Draco Meteor
- Ice Beam
- Flip Turn
normally, kingdra opts for surf on rain, needing the accuracy consistency that hydro pump lacks. this problem is no more with the conversion of hurricane to water, granting it a fantastic stab under rain.
here's other mons i think will be very prevalent on offense:
Dragonite @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Inner Focus
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Double-Edge
- Earthquake
- Roost
my baby is back in action, now possessing a monster flying stab in double edge, a trait shared by salamence, but honestly, access to good natural bulk and multiscale make it a better abuser imo
(edit: dnite is banned my son just cant catch a break...)
Tapu Koko @ Heavy-Duty Boots / Choice Band
Ability: Electric Surge
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Wild Charge
- Brave Bird
- Roost
- U-turn
who needs play rough when you finally get a stupid strong fairy stab in brave bird? access to roost also helps massively to regain hp back from recoil.
Aegislash @ Spell Tag
Ability: Stance Change
EVs: 196 HP / 252 Atk / 60 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Close Combat
- Sacred Sword
- Shadow Sneak
ever annoyed at how little damage shadow claw does? well now you have access to a low drawback 120 bp stab with ghost CC, necessitating sacred sword be used as your fighting coverage, but CC will be doing the bulk of the damage regardless. i sense this mon will elicit specific fatties to eat this monster ghost stab.
