Bisharp @ Black Glasses
Ability: Defiant
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Iron Head
- Knock Off
- Sucker Punch
Meet Bisharp, a good wallbreaker and semi-consistent Defog deterrent in UU. The combination of Swords Dance and Black Glasses allows Bisharp to threaten common defensive staples such as Slowking, Galarian Weezing, Sylveon, and Doublade, although Bisharp should be wary of carelessly switching into or setting up on them due to their coverage moves. Sucker Punch prevents Bisharp from being easily revenge killed by faster threats like Mamoswine, Lycanroc-D, and Noivern. However, Bisharp's middling Speed leaves it susceptible to bulkier Fighting-types such as Keldeo, Terrakion, and Cobalion that can comfortably tank a boosted Knock Off or Sucker Punch and force Bisharp out. Pairing Bisharp with checks to them such as Starmie, Noivern, and Slowbro is appreciated. Entry hazard setters such as Roserade and Araquanid value Bisharp deterring Defog with Defiant; in return, Spikes from Roserade helps put Mienshao in range of a +2 Sucker Punch, while Sticky Web from Araquanid allows Bisharp to outspeed would-be answers such as Obstagoon and Terrakion.
