Greninja @ Waterium Z
Ability: Protean
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Hydro Pump
- Gunk Shot
- Hidden Power Fire
- Spikes
Greninja's ability to lay Spikes and threaten Defoggers make it heavily appreciated on any offense team. Furthermore, Protean and its wide coverage make it incredibly difficult to safely switch into. Hydro Pump hits threats like Heatran, Gliscor, and Landorus-T super effectively, and Greninja's Hydro Vortex can KO even neutrally-hit Pokemon like Zapdos, Corviknight, and Garchomp. Meanwhile, Gunk Shot hits Fairy-types that bother Greninja, like Clefable and Tapu Fini. Hidden Power Fire reliably hits Steel-types that would otherwise take its hits like Ferrothorn, Mega Scizor, and Corviknight, as well as revenge killing threats like Kartana and Magnezone. Tapu Lele, Mega Lopunny, and Mega Diancie love Greninja setting Spikes and wearing down Steel-types.
