Serperior @ Leftovers
Ability: Contrary
Tera Type: Electric / Fire
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Leaf Storm
- Tera Blast / Dragon Pulse
- Synthesis
- Glare
Serperior slithers into battle! With Glare, Serperior is a great status spreader, paralyzing threats such as Cobalion, Lokix, and Tornadus-T. Tera Electric allows Serperior to defeat Zapdos and Tornadus-T with Tera Blast Electric and resist their attacks while also granting Serperior an immunity to being paralyzed by Pokemon such as Slowking and Tinkaton. Tera Fire is an option to beat Steel-types such as Tinkaton and Scizor directly but does not provide any defensive utility. Dragon Pulse is another option over Tera Blast for Tera Electric sets that enables Serperior to damage Hydrapple and Latios while being a neutral attack that can still hit Pokemon such as Tornadus-T harder. Synthesis allows Serperior to better check Slowking and Rotom-W as well as set up on and heal against Tornadus-T and Zapdos if they attempt to check it when Terastallized. Serperior struggles with getting on the field safely, so pivots such as Cobalion and Zapdos are greatly appreciated, as they are able to pivot on Slowking and are good checks to Lokix. In turn, Serperior is able to spread paralysis, which is very useful for threats such as Okidogi and Excadrill to be able to potentially sweep, as they greatly appreciate having foes such as Tornadus-T paralyzed.
