OU Iron Valiant

[nimzowitsch]

Iron Valiant @ Booster Energy
Ability: Quark Drive
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Spirit Break / Close Combat
- Knock Off
- Encore

Iron Valiant is ready to set the tempo in OU! Swords Dance skyrockets its already high Attack stat to monstrous levels, letting it threaten much of the tier with its powerful Spirit Break or Close Combat. Knock Off is an excellent coverage move that notably OHKOes Gholdengo after a boost. Encore gives Iron Valiant crucial setup opportunities against slower foes, such as a Great Tusk that just used Close Combat or Body Press, locking them into an unfavorable move. Booster Energy enables Iron Valiant to outspeed the entire unboosted metagame as well as most Choice Scarf and Booster Energy users. Tera Steel enables Iron Valiant to avoid being revenge killed by Bullet Punch from Scizor and Extreme Speed from Dragonite and gives it an out against opposing Booster Energy Iron Valiant. Iron Valiant fits well on offensive teams seeking a strong late-game cleaner. Good partners include Great Tusk for entry hazard support and other setup sweepers, like Dragonite and Dragon Dance Dragapult, that can wear down shared checks.

Iron Valiant is ready to set the tempo in OU! Swords Dance skyrockets its already high Attack stat to monstrous levels, letting it threaten much of the tier with its powerful Spirit Break or Close Combat. Knock Off is an excellent coverage move alongside Fairy or Fighting-type STAB, most notably OHKOing Gholdengo after a boost. Encore gives Iron Valiant crucial setup opportunities against slower foes such as a Great Tusk that just used Close Combat or Body Press, locking them into an unfavorable move. Booster Energy enables Iron Valiant to outspeed the entire unboosted metagame, along with most Choice Scarf and Booster Energy users. Tera Steel enables Iron Valiant to avoid being revenge killed by Bullet Punch from Scizor and Extreme Speed from Dragonite while giving it an out against opposing Booster Energy Iron Valiant. Iron Valiant fits well on offensive teams seeking a strong late-game cleaner. Good partners alongside Iron Valiant include Great Tusk for entry hazard support, Dragon Dance Dragonite, and Quiver Dance Volcarona and other setup sweepers like Dragonite and Dragon Dance Dragapult that can wear down shared checks (Volcarona is just sorta "good with everything" more than it is good with this set in particular; I think pult is more applicable).

1/1! Might take some massaging to get it closer to the character count but it should be fine.

haven't used this stamp in a while!
