Krookodile @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Moxie
Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
- Stone Edge
- Tera Blast
Choice Scarf Krookodile is making rounds in RU with a surprising coverage move in Tera Blast Fairy! Stone Edge demolishes Flying-types like Talonflame and Noivern. Tera Blast Fairy can flip the script on offensive threats that could otherwise check Krookodile, like Slither Wing and Galarian Zapdos, as well as catching Fighting- and Dark-type switch-ins including Chesnaught, Umbreon, and even opposing Krookodile off guard. Moxie takes Krookodile's potency as a sweeper to the next level by generating significant momentum on a KO. Entry hazard support from teammates such as Jirachi, Registeel, and Chesnaught can do wonders in enabling a Krookodile sweep by wearing down important targets like Hippowdon and Slowbro. Krookodile also greatly appreciates U-turn partners like Cyclizar and Slither Wing that can bring it in safely against the likes of Jirachi and Fezandipiti. Lastly, Krookodile's two immunities allow it to supplement defensive Poison- and Water-type Pokemon like Fezandipiti and Slowbro against Psychic- and Electric-type threats such as Armarouge and Magnezone.
Choice Scarf Moxie Krookodile has had a recent surge in popularity at the high level, with Tera Blast Fairy appearing in two games in week 6 of SCL IV. Check them out!
