Gouging Fire @ Booster Energy / Dragonium Z

EVs: 24 HP / 252 Atk / 232 Spe
Adamant Nature

- Heat Crash
- Earthquake
- Morning Sun / Outrage

You really can teach an old dog new tricks! Gouging Fire serves as a fearsome setup sweeper, with the given EV spread allowing it to outspeed Zamazenta after a Dragon Dance. Heat Crash is used over Flare Blitz due to its lack of recoil; paired with Earthquake, it provides a move combo that hits the majority of the metagame for neutral damage, being able to hit the likes of Toxapex, Ferrothorn, and Mega Tyranitar for super effective damage. Morning Sun can be used for longevity, while Dragonium Z with Outrage provides Gouging Fire with a powerful STAB attack that can OHKO Pokemon such as Alomomola, Rotom-W, and Gliscor. Tera Ground can be used to gain STAB on Earthquake to help break through Toxapex and Mega Tyranitar, while Tera Water can be used as a defensive option to ease setup versus the likes of Landorus-T and Mega Diancie. Despite its access to Morning Sun and good bulk, the lack of Heavy-Duty-Boots means that Gouging Fire will often take heavy chip from entry hazards, making entry hazard removers such as Great Tusk and Landorus-T beneficial partners.

You really can teach an old dog new tricks! Even though Gouging Fire may look overshadowed by Mega Charizard X, the fact it can run an item slot and frees another mega slot gives it a distinct niche in National Dex. xard is already a pretty poor pick in the metagame, so it's not apt to really compare them. a viewer could pretty easily observe the difference between the 2 @ first glance. Dragon Dance is Gouging Fire's set-up option, and this EV spread ensures that Gouging Fire can outspeed max Speed investment they r all max speed, so this isnt necessary Zamazenta with an Adamant Nature at +1. why do you go from explaining a move into explaining ev spread in explaining another move? should aim to keep those together else it feels a bit incoherent Heat Crash is used over Flare Blitz due to its lack of recoil, and along with Earthquake, provides a move combo that hits majority of the metagame for neutral damage. Morning Sun can be used for longevity, but while Dragonium Z with Outrage provides Gouging Fire with a powerful STAB attack that can blow holes in most of the metagame's walls OHKO Pokemon such as Alomomola, Rotom-W, and Gliscor. Tera Ground can be used to gain STAB on its Earthquake to help break through Toxapex and Mega Tyranitar, but while Tera Water can be used as a defensive option to ease setup versus the likes of Landorus-T and Mega Diancie. Despite its access to Morning Sun and good bulk, the lack of Heavy-Duty-Boots means that Gouging Fire gets worn down by hazards very easily will often take heavy chip from entry hazards, making entry hazard removal such as Great Tusk and Landorus-Therian suitable beneficial partners. It is also prone to being revenge killed if it doesn't have a speed boost from Booster Energy or Dragon Dance, so walls such as Ferrothorn and Toxapex are good options i do not understand what this point means since you cannot get a speed booster without greatly compromising your other stats, and even if you could there would be no point cause it doesnt get SD. If you are bringing in Gouging Fire, it should be to get a dd up and wallbreak/sweep so mentioning how it's kinda slow before that doesnt make much sense. seems like unnecessary filler

wanna give this one more look before 1/1, lmk when youve implemented the above

Gouging Fire serves as a fearsome setup sweeper, with the given EV spread allowing it to outspeed Zamazenta after a Dragon Dance. or smth like this, dont have to take this wording verbatim. just felt the original sentence sounded kinda awkward and smth like this could communicate the point better Heat Crash is used over Flare Blitz due to its lack of recoil, and along with Earthquake, provides a move combo that hits majority of the metagame for neutral damage mention how it hits common fire answers for se damage, ie heatran/pex/mttar. Morning Sun can be used for longevity, while Dragonium Z with Outrage provides Gouging Fire with a powerful STAB attack that can OHKO Pokemon such as Alomomola, Rotom-W, and Gliscor. Tera Ground can be used to gain STAB on its Earthquake to help break through Toxapex and Mega Tyranitar, while Tera Water can be used as a defensive option to ease setup versus the likes of Landorus-T and Mega Diancie.

Heat Crash is used over Flare Blitz due to its lack of recoil, (RC) ; (AS) and along paired run-on sentence with Earthquake, it restate subject cos i put a ; provides a move combo that hits the majority of the metagame for neutral damage, being able to hit the likes of Toxapex, Ferrothorn, (AC) and Mega Tyranitar for super effective damage. Morning Sun can be used for longevity, while Dragonium Z with Outrage provides Gouging Fire with a powerful STAB attack that can OHKO Pokemon such as Alomomola, Rotom-W, and Gliscor. Tera Ground can be used to gain STAB on its "its" refers to tera ground Earthquake to help break through Toxapex and Mega Tyranitar, while Tera Water can be used as a defensive option to ease setup versus the likes of Landorus-T and Mega Diancie. Despite its access to Morning Sun and good bulk, the lack of Heavy-Duty-(RH add space)Boots means that Gouging Fire will often take heavy chip from entry hazards, making entry spotlight -> less words good hazard removal from teammates was gonna shift "partners" up here but it sounds off in that spot so changing the word such as Great Tusk and Landorus-T beneficial partners.

edit: someone else checked this while i was doing it leaving my check here uhh have fun with two

 

[LOrd Fernado]
