1v1 Attack Booster Roaring Moon [QC 2/2] [GP 0/1]

[SET]
Attack Booster (Roaring Moon) @ Booster Energy
Ability: Protosynthesis
EVs: 8 HP / 156 Atk / 160 SpD / 184 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Outrage
- Knock Off
- Acrobatics
- Substitute / Dragon Dance

[SET COMMENTS]
- Outrage is Roaring Moon's most powerful STAB move against neutral threats, like Hisuian Goodra, while also hitting other Dragon-types (RC) such as Raging Bolt and Walking Wake super effectively.
- Knock Off hits both Psychic-types, such as Iron Crown, and Ghost-types, such as Skeledirge and Spectrier. Importantly, it removes the item from foes such as offensive Hoopa-U, which would otherwise KO Roaring Moon.
- Acrobatics is a powerful move to hit foes such as non-physically defensive Ogerpon-W, bulkier Volcarona sets, and Fighting-types such as both Urshifu formes.
- Substitute allows Roaring Moon to safely avoid a knockout from Draco Meteor users, such as Haban Berry Raging Bolt and non-Choice Band Hisuian Goodra. It further allows Roaring Moon to avoid stat dropping moves from foes such as Pecharunt.
- Alternatively, Dragon Dance can be used to secure the knockout against bulkier foes, such as Weakness Policy Metagross, Annihilape, and bulkier Ogerpon-W sets.
- The EV spread lets it survive a Focus Blast from Modest Hoopa-U, allowing it to beat all Hoopa-U sets by using Knock Off. The Speed EVs outspeed maximum Speed Ogerpon-W.

- Outrage is a Roaring Moon's most (for neutral options too) powerful Stab move that hits other dragons, such as Raging Bolt and Walking Wake super-effectively, and
- Knock Off (caps) hits both Psychic-types, such as Iron Crown, and Ghost-types, such as Skeledirge and Spectrier. Importantly, it removes the item from foes such as Offensive Hoopa-U, which would otherwise knock it out.
- Acrobatics doubles its BP upon the consumption of Booster Energy, giving a powerful move to hit foes such as Ogerpon-W, bulkier Volcarona sets, and Annihilape. (generic fighting type mention, but it does help in those MUs a lot)
- Alternatively, Dragon Dance can be used to secure the knockout against bulkier Metagross sets, like Weakness Policy. (There are other niches of Dragon Dance - Subseed Serperior can live Acrobatics half the time, so you can DD it for a KO, Counterpon lives regular acro, etc. Personally, I actually think this should be slashed with Substitute, since the respective niches are about the same and Acro is way better than both, but you can wait for QC2's input if you'd like.)
- Substitute allows Roaring Moon to safely avoid a knockout from Draco Meteor users, such as Haban Raging Bolt or Non-Choice Band Hisuian Goodra. It further allows it Roaring Moon to avoid stat dropping moves from foes such as Pecharunt.
- The EV spread allows it to live a Focus Blast from Modest Hoopa-U, allowing it to beat all Hoopa-U sets by using Knock Off. The Speed EVs outspeed Max Speed Ogerpon-W.

- Alternatively, Dragon Dance can be used to secure the knockout against bulkier Metagross sets, such as Weakness Policy. Is there nothing else? There must be something else
