Jolly Nature
- Knock Off
- U-turn
- Dragon Tail
- Stone Edge / Iron Head
[SET COMMENTS]
Roaring Moon is an excellent user of RegenVest with a typing that plays well into the tier's special setup sweepers and pivots like Iron Moth, Sandy Shocks, and all variants of Zapdos. Knock Off cripples switch-ins like Great Tusk and Corviknight while also threatening a 2HKO on offensive Gholdengo and an OHKO on Gengar and Azelf. U-turn allows Roaring Moon to pivot out on these switch-ins, and Dragon Tail allows Roaring Moon to force out setup sweepers such as Manaphy, which Roaring Moon cannot meaningfully damage, while letting it rack up entry hazard damage. Stone Edge allows Roaring Moon to threaten the plethora of Flying- and Fire-types that the tier has, such as Thundurus, Iron Moth, and Zapdos, while Iron Head allows it to chip Fairy-types like Scream Tail and Diancie that otherwise can switch in freely. 192 Speed EVs and a Jolly nature ensure that Roaring Moon outspeeds Thundurus and Gengar. Roaring Moon appreciates physically defensive walls like Corviknight, Great Tusk, and Quaquaval that can remove entry hazards which limit Roaring Moon's walling capabilities, while it checks the special Electric- and Fire-types that threaten them like Hisuian Electrode and Iron Moth in return. Roaring Moon's presence is appreciated by pivots and wallbreakers like Galarian Zapdos and Sword of Ruin Ceruledge due to its ability to switch into revenge killing attempts from the likes of Hisuian Electrode, Sandy Shocks, and Azelf. Roaring Moon deathly fears Dragon- and Fairy-types like Hydreigon, Walking Wake, and Enamorus-T, making Earth Eater Empoleon a notable partner with its ability to pivot into these Pokemon.
