LC Wisp Gastly (QC 2/2) (GP 0/1)

[Drifting]

[SET]
Gastly @ Eviolite
Ability: Levitate
Level: 5
Tera Type: Fairy / Ground
EVs: 36 HP / 36 Def / 196 SpA / 196 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Will-O-Wisp
- Hex
- Sludge Bomb
- Dazzling Gleam / Tera Blast

[SET COMMENTS]
Will-O-Wisp Gastly is a potent utility option, carrying not only the benefit of enhanced bulk with Eviolite but also more notably the ability to weaken most physical attackers. Hex becomes the most powerful STAB option Gastly has access to when enabled by Will-O-Wisp burn or Sludge Bomb poison. Tera Fairy Dazzling Gleam threatens Mienfoo and Vullaby while also removing Gastly's Dark weakness, whereas Tera Blast Ground improves Gastly's matchup against Poison- and Steel-types like Glimmet and Pawniard.

Beyond simply amplifying the power of Hex, Gastly's ability to debilitate physical attackers can be highly beneficial to setup sweeper teammates such as Shellder and Magby, which can often take advantage of the burn to set up with little consequence. Likewise, a teammate like Foongus or Thunder Wave Hisuian Voltorb can use its own status to assist Gastly in breaking through opposing teams. Threats to look out for include faster foes, such as Hisuian Voltorb and Choice Scarf Hisuian Growlithe, as even with Eviolite, Gastly is somewhat frail.

Will-O-Wisp Gastly is a more utility-focused option compared to Life Orb or Choice Scarf sets, carrying not only the benefit of enhanced bulk with Eviolite, but more notably the ability to instantly cripple most slower physical attackers. examples? Hex, with an effective base power of 130 against opponents afflicted by status, becomes the most powerful STAB option Gastly has access to when enabled by Will-O-Wisp or Sludge Bomb. The final slot is typically reserved for coverage. Tera Fairy Dazzling Gleam threatens Mienfoo vull also a pretty good target while also removing Gastly's Dark-type weakness, whereas Tera Blast Ground improves Gastly's matchup against Steel- and Rock-types like Tinkatink and Glimmet. think hgrowl better mention for relevance even tho flare blitz owns you if you take just 20% first lol


Beyond simply amplifying the power of Hex, the ability to debilitate physical attackers can be highly beneficial to set-up sweeper teammates such as Shellder or Gastly, assuming this is a mistake, but np vull or like sd pawn are better mentions who can often take advantage of the burn to set up with little consequence. Likewise, a teammate like Spore Foongus, or Thunder Wave Tinkatink can use their own status to assist Gastly in breaking through enemy teams. Threats to look out for include faster enemies examples?, as even with Eviolite Gastly is somewhat frail, Special Attackers not 100% on this, but i don't think you need to capitalize special attackers here unaffected by burn, Tera Fire to absorb Will-O-Wisp, and especially Timburrs with unrevealed abilities, as it can turn your Status status against you with Guts and deal major damage in return to non-Tera Fairy sets. don't think this needs mentioning. also probably something you can leave up to qc team, but timburr is not very common so it may be worth just removing it from the sentence.

Will-O-Wisp Gastly is a more utility-focused option compared to Life Orb or Choice Scarf sets (cross-referencing sets is generally frowned upon, i think u should reword it to something like "Will-O-Wisp Gastly is a <adjective> utility option), carrying not only the benefit of enhanced bulk with Eviolite, but also more notably the ability to weaken most physical attackers. Hex, with an effective base power of 130 against opponents afflicted by status, (dex info) becomes the most powerful STAB option Gastly has access to when enabled by Will-O-Wisp burn or Sludge Bomb poison. The final slot is typically reserved for coverage. Tera Fairy Dazzling Gleam threatens Mienfoo and Vullaby while also removing Gastly's Dark-type weakness, whereas Tera Blast Ground improves Gastly's matchup against Poison- and Steel-types like Glimmet and Pawniard.
