Monotype Iron Valiant Mix Attacker (Fairy) [QC 2/2] [GP 1/1]

[boomp]

[SET]
Iron Valiant @ Life Orb / Expert Belt
Name: Mixed Attacker (Fairy)
Ability: Quark Drive
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Moonblast
- Close Combat
- Ice Punch
- Thunderbolt

[SET DETAILS]
Iron Valiant is a great option for Fairy teams due to its good coverage, being able to take out threats like Archaludon, Toxapex, and Landorus. Iron Valiant also takes advantage of passive teams trying to check it defensively. Moonblast deals with Dark- and Fighting-types like Sableye, Great Tusk, and Keldeo. Close Combat is Iron Valiant's strongest STAB move, dealing with annoying Steel-type foes like Kingambit and Hisuian Goodra while also being able to take out threats like the Ogerpon formes and Blissey and 2HKO specially defensive Corviknight. Ice Punch threatens Ground- and Flying-types like Gliscor, Landorus, and Dragonite. Thunderbolt pressures Toxapex, Skarmory, and opposing Azumarill, which Fairy teams greatly appreciate. Life Orb allows Iron Valiant to OHKO non-physically defensive Gliscor and hit as hard as possible. Expert Belt can be run over Life Orb to preserve Iron Valiant from chip damage and make it seem Choice-locked.

Klefki is a nice teammate for Iron Valiant, providing a Poison immunity, dual screens, Spikes, and Thunder Wave support to paralyze fast threats like Dragapult, Choice Scarf Enamorus, and Choice Scarf Iron Boulder. Klefki also stops setup sweepers like Scizor with Foul Play. Hatterene deals with Poison-types like Galarian Weezing and Amoonguss while also preventing entry hazards with Magic Bounce. Choice Specs Flutter Mane is a fierce wallbreaker paired with Iron Valiant, being able to take out Gholdengo, Pecharunt, and Choice Specs Greninja. Flutter Mane benefits from Iron Valiant being able to lure and heavily damage Hisuian Goodra and Corviknight. Belly Drum Azumarill is a great late-game sweeper, being able to take out threats like Amoonguss, Alolan Muk, Iron Treads, and Excadrill with Knock Off and Aqua Jet. Iron Valiant returns the favor by taking out Kingambit and Ogerpon-W for Flutter Mane and Azumarill. Choice Scarf Enamorus provides a Ground immunity and is a good revenge killer, being able to take out Choice Specs Greninja and Choice Scarf Glimmora. Enamorus also provides Healing Wish support for the team. Physically defensive Primarina checks Gouging Fire and is a soft check to Clodsire and Corviknight by preventing recovery with Psychic Noise. Tinkaton provides another Poison immunity, sets up Stealth Rock, and gives Knock Off support. Tinkaton also takes out Hatterene in the Fairy mirror with Gigaton Hammer, which Iron Valiant appreciates. Ribombee is a nice lead, providing Sticky Web to slow down fast threats like Will-O-Wisp Dragapult, Iron Treads, and Choice Scarf Excadrill.


[OTHER OPTIONS]
Grass Knot can be run over Moonblast to 2HKO Dondozo, Quagsire, and Swampert, which allows Iron Valiant to be a huge threat in the Water matchup. Shadow Sneak picks off Flutter Mane, while Vacuum Wave gets a surprise OHKO on Chien-Pao.

Name: Mixed Attacker (Fairy)
Ability: Quark Drive
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Moonblast
- Close Combat
- Ice Punch
- Thunderbolt

[SET DETAILS]
Mixed attacking Iron Valiant is a great mixed attacker due to its good offensive stats, (add comma) being able to take out threats like Archaludon, Toxapex, and Landorus-I. (add period) Life orb Orb is the ideal item to be able to hit as hard as possible with Iron Valiant, sacrificing chip in the progress. (dex info) Expert Belt can be run over Life orb Orb to preserve Iron Valiant from chip damage and also making it seem like your choiced lock Choice-locked. Moonblast deals with Dark-, Fighting-, and Dragon-types like Sableye, Great Tusk, and Kommo-o (also good vs opposing iron valiant). Close Combat is Iron Valiant's strongest STAB move, dealing with annoying Steel-type foes like Kingambit and Hisuian Goodra while also being able to take out threats like the Ogerpon Forms, Kingambit, Hisuian Goodra, and Blissey. Ice Punch checks Ground- and Flying-types like Gliscor, Landours-I, and Dragonite. Thunderbolt is a nice coverage move pressuring Toxapex, Corviknight, and Skarmory (opposing azumarill too) which Fairy teams greatly appreciates appreciate.

Klefki is a nice teammate for Iron Valiant, providing Poison immunity, screens support, Spikes, and Thunder Wave support to paralyze fast threats like Dragapult, Choice Scarf Enamorus, and Choice Scarf Iron Boulder. Klefki also stops setup sweepers like Ceruledge and Scizor with Foul Play. In return Iron Valiant takes out Mamoswine and Choice Specs Kyurem for Klefki (also ursa-bm, lando i, and great tusk, which won't be taken out by regular physical val). Choice Specs Flutter Mane is a fierce wallbreaker paired with Iron Valiant being able to take out Gholdengo, Pechurant, and Choice Specs Greninja with Shadow Ball and Moonblast. Belly Drum Azumarill is a great late game sweeper being able to take out threats like Amoonguss, Alolan Muk, Iron Treads, and Excadrill with Knock Off and Aqua Jet. Iron Valiant returns the favor by taking out Kingambit and Ogerpon-W for Flutter Mane and Azumarill (also takes out skarmory and corviknight with thunderbolt, empoleon, h-goodra and ting-lu with close combat). Calm Mind Clefable with good coverage in Moonblast and ThunderBolt Thunderbolt is a great set up sweeper being able to take out Moltres and Enamorus for Iron Valiant (can't valiant deal with moltres now thanks to tbolt access? i dont think flying types are an issue per se. you could mention defensive pex, primarina, and pelipper instead, reducing the pressure on val). Clefable also acts as a Status status absorber due to its ability Magic Guard. Choice Scarf Enamorus provides ground Ground immunity and is a good revenge killer being able to take out Choice Specs Greninja and Kyurem. Enamorus also provides Healing Wish support for the team. Hatterene deals with Poison-types like Galarian Weezing and Okidogi while also preventing hazards with Magic Bounce. Physical Defensive defensive Primarina is a good check to Gouging Fire, being able to prevent recovery with Psychic Noise (could mention few more benefits here like stopping Ceruledge and Cinderace). Tinkaton is another Poison immunity, setting up Stealth Rock, and also having Knock Off support. Tinkaton also provides Encore to stop passive walls like Clodsire, Dondozo, and Toxapex. Ribombee is a nice lead providing Sticky Web to slow down fast threats like Will-o-Wisp Will-O-Wisp Dragapult and Iron Treads (drill in sand, scarf drill). Galarian Weezing is a nice physical wall removing hazards with defog Defog and providing ground Ground immunity with Levitate. Galarian Weezing also weakens Physical physical threats like Sneasler and Zamazenta with Will-o-Wisp Will-O-Wisp. Iron Valiant handles Kingambit and Heatran for Galarian Weezing. (remember to add all the extra examples i shared in the comments, because without them the paragraph is similar to band valiant's paragraph. these examples highlight why a player should run mixed over band, what additional advantages it can provide to the team at the cost of -spdef nature. mention how clefable and mane help to reduce pressure on val as well. if a sentence is getting too long because of the examples, make sure to break it into two or more sentences as per requirement so it doesn't seem wordy. so like, for ex: "Iron Valiant deals with Great Tusk and Ursaluna-B for Klefki in return with the help of Moonblast. It also deals with foes like Mamoswine, Choice Specs Kyurem, and Landorus-I with Close Combat and Ice Punch, thus allowing Klefki to safely set up screens for its teammates." something like this)


[OTHER OPTIONS]
Grass Knot can be run to 2HKO Gastrodon (over which move?).

[OTHER OPTIONS]
Grass Knot can be run over Thunderbolt to 2HKO Gastrodon, Quagsire, and Swampert. But doing so will make you weak into Flying- and Water-types like Skarmory, Dondozo, and Toxapex. (no need to worry about these, we have specs tbolt mane and cm tbolt clefable, after all. if you wanna mention the disadvantages maybe a better way could be "Grass Knot can be run over X to hit X mons, in exchange for increased susceptibility against Y mons.") this way you're not discouraging the user from using gknot, but still informing them of any potential drawbacks.)

EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Moonblast
- Close Combat
- Ice Punch

[SET DETAILS]
Iron Valiant is a great mixed attacker (mentioned mixed attacker so no need to mention its a mixed attacker again) due to its good offensive stats (mostly coverage), being able to take out threats like Archaludon, Toxapex, and Landorus-I (also takes advantage of passive teams trying to check it defensively instead). Life Orb is the ideal item to be able to hit as hard as possible (This allows Valiant to OHKO non-Physdef Gliscor with Life Orb). Expert Belt can be run over Life Orb to preserve Iron Valiant from chip damage and also making it seem like your Choice-locked. Moonblast deals with Dark-, Fighting-, and Dragon-types like Sableye, Great Tusk, Kommo-o, and opposing Iron Valiant (kommy isnt really an issue for Fairy teams, and you dont want a Val speedtie, could mention Keldeo if you want). Close Combat is Iron Valiant's strongest STAB move, dealing with annoying Steel-type foes like Kingambit and Hisuian Goodra while also being able to take out threats like the Ogerpon Forms and Blissey (also 2HKO'es spdef Corv, which otherwise swaps in for "free" vs it). Ice Punch checks (it doesn't check more of just threaten) Ground- and Flying-types like Gliscor, Landours-I, and Dragonite. Thunderbolt is a nice coverage move pressuring Toxapex (Corv is usually spdef), Skarmory, and opposing Azumarill which Fairy teams greatly appreciate.

Klefki is a nice teammate for Iron Valiant, providing Poison immunity, screens support, Spikes, and Thunder Wave support to paralyze fast threats like Dragapult, Choice Scarf Enamorus, and Choice Scarf Iron Boulder. Klefki also stops setup sweepers like (no to cerul since Bitter Blade hurts lots) and Scizor with Foul Play. In return Iron Valiant takes out Mamoswine and Choice Specs Kyurem for Klefki. (unironically, aside from tusk, Phys Valiant does take out Bloona and Lando I <Choice Band carries Close Combat and Ice Punch> You can just kill the sentence I already deleted). Choice Specs Flutter Mane is a fierce wallbreaker paired with Iron Valiant being able to take out Gholdengo, Pechurunt, and Choice Specs Greninja with Shadow Ball and Moonblast (it benefits from Val luring and heavily damaging Hisuian Goodra/Corv so it goes brr vs Flying or dragon for instance). Belly Drum Azumarill is a great late game sweeper being able to take out threats like Amoonguss, Alolan Muk, Iron Treads, and Excadrill with Knock Off and Aqua Jet. Iron Valiant returns the favor by taking out Kingambit and Ogerpon-W for Flutter Mane and Azumarill. (those sentences I removed arent needed, or if you want, compress those in the sentence Iron Val returns the favor...) Calm Mind Clefable with good coverage in Moonblast and Thunderbolt is a great set up sweeper being able to take out Toxapex, Primarina, and Pelipper for Iron Valiant (You mentioned earlier that Toxapex is hit by tbolt, as well as Peli, so these arent great examples since Val already deals with them. Clef also feels a bit ill-suited rn because of Primarina, so you can just put Clef lower [below Primarina] and briefly mention that Clef is some sort of bulky wincon that loves Articuno and Ogerpon getting bonked). Clefable also acts as a status absorber due to its ability Magic Guard. Choice Scarf Enamorus provides Ground immunity and is a good revenge killer being able to take out Choice Specs Greninja and (Valiant already outspeeds Kyurem, a diff example would be nicer). Enamorus also provides Healing Wish support for the team. Hatterene deals with Poison-types like Galarian Weezing and Okidogi while also preventing hazards with Magic Bounce (make hatterene higher, and its matchup vs Dogi is honestly iffy as Hatt sort of dies to +1 Pjab and this can run sub for you too). Physically defensive Primarina is a good check to Gouging Fire, (doesnt have recovery, Ceruledge deals ~74 to Primarina with Poltergeist while you dont KO back due to sash) from being able to prevent recovery with Psychic Noise. Tinkaton is another Poison immunity, setting up Stealth Rock, and also having Knock Off support. Tinkaton also provides Encore to stop passive walls like Clodsire, Dondozo, and Toxapex (Tinkaton doesnt like battling clod because eq hurts while Dozo and Pex tend to drain you out of pp. Maybe just mention how its cool for vs Fairy, esp since Hatterene takes advantage of this valiant set). Ribombee is a nice lead providing Sticky Web to slow down fast threats like Will-O-Wisp Dragapult, Iron Treads, and Choice Scarf Excadrill. (too many team mates meoww, drop G.Weeze atp ;w;)

Enamorus also provides Healing Wish support for the team. Hatterene deals with Poison-types like Galarian Weezing and Okidogi while also preventing hazards with Magic Bounce (make hatterene higher, and its matchup vs Dogi is honestly iffy as Hatt sort of dies to +1 Pjab and this can run sub for you too). Physically defensive Primarina is a good check to Gouging Fire, (doesnt have recovery, Ceruledge deals ~74 to Primarina with Poltergeist while you dont KO back due to sash) from being able to prevent recovery with Psychic Noise. Tinkaton is another Poison immunity, setting up Stealth Rock, and also having Knock Off support. Tinkaton also provides Encore to stop passive walls like Clodsire, Dondozo, and Toxapex (Tinkaton doesnt like battling clod because eq hurts while Dozo and Pex tend to drain you out of pp. Maybe just mention how its cool for vs Fairy, esp since Hatterene takes advantage of this valiant set). Ribombee is a nice lead providing Sticky Web to slow down fast threats like Will-O-Wisp Dragapult, Iron Treads, and Choice Scarf Excadrill. (too many team mates meoww, drop G.Weeze atp ;w;)


[OTHER OPTIONS]
Grass Knot can be run over Moonblast (over Thunderbolt) to 2HKO Gastrodon, Quagsire, and Swampert.
(Add Shadow Sneak, picks off Flutter Mane)
(Add Vacuum Wave, picks up a surprise OHKO on Chien-Pao)

Iron Valiant @ Life Orb / Expert Belt
Name: Mixed Attacker (Fairy)
Ability: Quark Drive
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Moonblast
- Close Combat
- Ice Punch
- Thunderbolt

[SET DETAILS]
Iron Valiant is a great option for Fairy teams due to its good coverage, being able to take out threats like Archaludon, Toxapex, and Landorus-I. Iron Valiant also takes advantage of passive teams trying to check it defensively. Life Orb is the ideal item to be able to hit as hard as possible which allows Iron Valiant to OHKO non-physical Defense Gliscor. Expert Belt can be run over Life Orb to preserve Iron Valiant from chip damage and also making it seem like your Choice-locked. Moonblast deals with Dark-, Fighting-, and Dragon-types like Sableye, Great Tusk, Keldeo, and opposing Iron Valiant (we went over this, you dont need to speedtie if going against Val). Close Combat is Iron Valiant's strongest STAB move, dealing with annoying Steel-type foes like Kingambit and Hisuian Goodra while also being able to take out threats like the Ogerpon Forms, Blissey, and 2HKO'es Special Defensive Corviknight. Ice Punch threatens Ground- and Flying-types like Gliscor, Landorus Landours-I, and Dragonite. Thunderbolt is a nice coverage move pressuring Toxapex, Skarmory, and opposing Azumarill which Fairy teams greatly appreciate.

Klefki is a nice teammate for Iron Valiant, providing Poison immunity, screens support, Spikes, and Thunder Wave support to paralyze fast threats like Dragapult, Choice Scarf Enamorus, and Choice Scarf Iron Boulder. Klefki also stops setup sweepers like and Scizor with Foul Play. In return Iron Valiant takes out Ursaluna-B, Mamoswine and Choice Specs Kyurem for Klefki. Hatterene deals with Poison-types like Galarian Weezing and Amoonguss while also preventing hazards with Magic Bounce. Choice Specs Flutter Mane is a fierce wallbreaker paired with Iron Valiant being able to take out Gholdengo, Pecharunt Pechurunt, and Choice Specs Greninja with Shadow Ball and Moonblast. Flutter Mane Benefits from Iron Valiant being able to lure and heavily damage Hisuian Goodra and Corviknight. Belly Drum Azumarill is a great late game sweeper being able to take out threats like Amoonguss, Alolan Muk, Iron Treads, and Excadrill with Knock Off and Aqua Jet. Iron Valiant returns the favor by taking out Kingambit and Ogerpon-W for Flutter Mane and Azumarill. Choice Scarf Enamorus provides Ground immunity and is a good revenge killer being able to take out Choice Specs Greninja and Choice Scarf Heatran* (Maybe a different scarfer over heatran instead? There's not a lot of ways you'd see scarf heatran is coming anyway). Enamorus also provides Healing Wish support for the team. Physically defensive Primarina is a good check to Gouging Fire from being able to prevent recovery with Psychic Noise (this is worded a bit odd, you can probably say that Primarina checks gouger and she also softens up (?) Val checks like Clod and Corv by denying them healing with Psychic noise or something like that). Tinkaton is another Poison immunity, setting up Stealth Rock, and also having Knock Off support. Tinkaton also takes out Hatterene in the Fairy Mirror with Gigaton Hammer, which Iron Valiant appreciates. Ribombee is a nice lead providing Sticky Web to slow down fast threats like Will-O-Wisp Dragapult, Iron Treads, and Choice Scarf Excadrill.


[OTHER OPTIONS]
Grass Knot can be run over Moonblast over Thunderbolt to 2HKO Dondozo Gastrodon, Quagsire, and Swampert (lets iron val be a huge threat to water that way too). Shadow Sneak picks off Flutter Mane while Vacuum Wave gets a surprise OHKO on Chien-Pao.
