[SET]
Pixilate (Zacian) @ Protective Pads / Wide Lens
Ability: Pixilate
Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Population Bomb
- Coil / Swords Dance
- Strength Sap
- Rapid Spin / Precipice Blades / Spirit Shackle

[SET COMMENTS]
Pixilate Zacian is a powerful cleaner. Pixilate boosted Population Bomb is an incredibly strong STAB move, 2HKOing defensive behemoths like Fur Coat Dondozo at +2. Coil + Protective Pads and Swords Dance + Wide Lens both increase Population Bomb's power and accuracy, with the former bypassing Rocky Helmet and the latter providing a stronger boost, notably letting Zacian boost past Strength Sap. Rapid Spin with Pixilate provides unblockable entry hazard removal in a pinch, while Precipice Blades targets Fairy-resistant Pokemon like Arceus-Poison and Arceus-Fire. Spirit Shackle is an option with Coil to trap and eliminate Imposter users, which are otherwise problematic. Knock Off users like Ting-Lu and Groudon are mandatory for Wide Lens sets to remove Rocky Helmet. While Zacian can remove hazards with Rapid Spin, hazard setters often carry moves that can heavily cripple it like Nuzzle and Knock Off, making another hazard remover like Tidy Up Groudon or Mortal Spin Ting-Lu a good choice. Groudon notably also pressures Fairy-resistant Pokemon like Arceus-Poison and Arceus-Fire well. Imposter users serve as a strong check to this set, so having a sturdy Imposter-proofing teammate is necessary, with Rocky Helmet + Fur Coat users or Corviknight being good candidates.

Spirit Shackle is an option with Coil to threaten to (this feels like a surprise and/or one-time trap, which would make "threaten to" not applicable, but if i'm wrong, you can ignore this. or you could do some other tweak) trap and eliminate the otherwise problematic Imposter.
