Hello Everyone,
LittleRunnerXC here and I am going to bring up a very good
Metagross set, and wanted to bring up this thread again. It was featured in my Adaptability RMT. This Metagross is a really cool lure to many common counters, and can really surprise many teams! Here it is!
The X-man (Metagross) @
Shuca Berry
Ability: Clear Body
EVs: 240 HP / 252 Atk / 16 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Meteor Mash
- Bullet Punch
- Earthquake
This is a great set for Metagross because it has a lot of trouble with Ground types. This set can allow it to tank an attack and either set up rocks, or OHKO the unexpecting mon, or weaken it and finish it off with a bullet punch(especially after a Attack boost from Meteor Mash). Examples of when this set can be helpful is if you wanna lure and take out a certain mon, This can lure Nidoqueen and Nidoking very well, and can even switch into one if it attacks with Ice Beam or Sludge Wave. This set also lures Mamoswine, as it can kill it with a Meteor Mash. I also like the EV spread as it can tank many hits, and still hits very hard. The 16 speed is to prevent common speed creeps on Metagross.
Hope you liked this set! Try it out yourself!
