Jolly Nature
- Light Screen
- Reflect
- Taunt
- U-turn
[SET COMMENTS]
Access to Light Screen and Reflect alongside an excellent Speed tier allows Tapu Koko to function as an effective dual screens setter in hyper offense teams. Taunt is a powerful tool on Tapu Koko, allowing it to prevent the use of Defog from the likes of Tornadus-T and Corviknight, deny setup from Pokemon such as Volcarona, Ogerpon-W, and Raging Bolt, and prevent opposing leads, such as Landorus-T and Ribombee, from setting up entry hazards. Tera Ghost is used solely for blocking Rapid Spin from Great Tusk, whereas Tera Flying allows Tapu Koko to safely set up dual screens in front of Ground-type Pokemon such as Gliscor and Landorus-T, though it should be noted that Tapu Koko rarely Terastallizes. Tapu Koko's Electric Surge is a powerful tool, allowing Hawlucha to reliably activate Unburden while also activating Quark Drive from the likes of Iron Valiant, Iron Crown, and Iron Boulder. Setup sweepers such as Volcarona, Zamazenta, and Mega Scizor appreciate Tapu Koko's dual screens, which allow for easier setup. Defog is able to remove Tapu Koko's dual screens and Electric Terrain, making Serperior, Encore variants of Iron Valiant and Ogerpon-W, and Taunt from Hisuan Samurott and Landorus-T solid options to use alongside Tapu Koko, as they can punish Defog users. Pokemon such as Mega Lopunny, Choice Scarf Landorus-T, and Iron Moth are able to outspeed and threaten to KO Tapu Koko, making teammates that can take advantage of them, such as Iron Valiant, Mega Gyarados, and Dragonite, excellent partners.
