Venomicon @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Stamina
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Nasty Plot
- Hurricane
- Earth Power / Mystical Fire
- Roost

Venomicon spreads its malice filled pages and reigns terror in the CAP metagame! Venomicon can switch into U-turn or other weak physical moves to boost its Defense with Stamina and then use Nasty Plot to turn into a scary wallbreaker or late-game sweeper. STAB Hurricane hits most of the tier for neutral damage. Earth Power hits Steel-types such as Heatran and Melmetal as well as Galarian Slowking, Zeraora, and Tapu Koko. Mystical Fire is an alternative to hit Equilibra, Scizor, and Corviknight while also lowering foes' Special Attack, making it hard to KO. Switch-ins to Knock Off are appreciated, as losing Heavy-Duty Boots can be quite detrimental for Venomicon. Arghonaut and Clefable don't mind losing their item too much and can answer to the most common Knock Off user in Weavile, with Arghonaut completely shutting it down. Sturdy answers to Ice- and Psychic-types are necessary, so teammates like Scizor, Equilibra, and Heatran are appreciated. Landorus-T is a solid answer to all Electric-types that threaten Venomicon and provides some nice utility with Defog in case Venomicon's Heavy-Duty Boots have been removed.

mentioned this to you already, but swap the order of EP and mystical fire in the set and then rearrange the descriptions to accommodate; it also might be worth emphasizing that EP not only lets you 2hko heatran but it's legit your only way of bypassing the mon, as it sits on you all day long with mystical fire

also not 100% sold with corv and pex as partners, I feel like both of these are ultimately slightly redundant teammates as bulky flying- and poison-types respectively. I would probably replace pex with like clef/argh for a different knock switchin, you can get away with stacking flying-types but two fat poisons feels sorta bad most of the time
