Zacian-Crowned @ Rusted Sword
Ability: Intrepid Sword

Tera Type: Fire
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Behemoth Blade
- Play Rough
- Wild Charge / Crunch
With a massive Attack stat and great Speed tier, Zacian-C is one of Ubers's most fearsome wallbreakers, able to easily tear through a myriad of defensive Pokemon with a small amount of chip damage. The immediate +1 Attack boost from Intrepid Sword allows Zacian-C to threaten out Arceus formes like Arceus-Fairy and weakened Arceus-Ground. Swords Dance turns Zacian-C into a dangerous wincon if the opponent isn't able to force it out with a threat of their own. Behemoth Blade is a reliable STAB move that provides good neutral coverage and threatens the likes of Arceus-Fairy and Flutter Mane, while Play Rough covers the tier's many Dragon-types, such as Miraidon and Koraidon. Wild Charge has a high chance to OHKO Toxapex after a Swords Dance, while Crunch can be run instead to improve Zacian-C's matchup against Skeledirge. Tera Fire removes its weakness to Fire-type moves while also granting it a burn immunity. Zacian-C has trouble against Landorus-T and defensive Arceus formes, so it pairs well with hazard setters like Groudon and Ting-Lu that can weaken them to let Zacian-C KO them easier. Koraidon also makes an excellent partner for Zacian-C thanks to them overpowering their shared checks to let the other more easily clean the opposing team.
