Cobalion @ Leftovers
Ability: Justified
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Close Combat
- Stone Edge
- Substitute
With its funny dance steps, Cobalion imposes its iron will on the whole RU metagame! Stone Edge hits Flying- and Bug-types such as Kleavor, Moltres, Thundurus-T, Enamorus-T, and Yanmega super effectively, and forms a nearly unresisted combo with Close Combat. Substitute can help Cobalion to set up itself by dealing with status conditions like Moltres’ Will-O-Wisp, as well as easing the matchup against Bisharp after Terastellazing. Justified allows Cobalion to absorb a Knock Off in order to gain a free Attack boost. Leftovers increases its longevity, while Tera Ghost transforms its Fighting weakness into an immunity, avoiding Cobalion to get revenge killed by Gengar, Terrakion, opposing Cobalion, Iron Leaves, and Galarian Zapdos. Without a Swords Dance boost, Cobalion struggles to take down most of the Pokemon of the tier, so entry hazards setters like Kleavor, Hippowdon, Empoleon, and Forretress as well as Knock Off users such as Cyclizar, Galarian Zapdos, and Crawdaunt in order to remove Heavy-Duty Boots can fix this problem. Finally, Cobalion gets easily checked by tough Pokemon including Hippowdon, Forretress, and Okidogi, so Thundurus-T, Enamorus-T, and Volcanion are good partners as they can beat the aforementioned Pokemon.
