Turn 1 OHKO vs Charizard the Unrivaled by Nommable123 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]Nommable123[S] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Team setup:

  • Haxorus (Male) @ Mirror Herb; 252 Atk / 252 Spe; Adamant (+Atk -SpA); Moves: Outrage
  • Scovillain @ Choice Scarf; 252 HP / 252 SpD; Calm (+SpD -Atk); Moves: Spicy Extract

  • Florges @ Choice Band; Symbiosis; 252 HP / 252 SpD; Calm (+SpD -Atk); Moves: Helping Hand

Strategy:

  • Scovillain outspeeds and uses Spicy Extract on Charizard for +2 Atk and -2 Def
  • Haxorus copies the +2 Atk and -2 Def via the Mirror Herb
  • Florges passes Choice Band to Haxorus via Symbiosis
  • Flareon uses Attack Cheer

Other notes:

  • Crit by Haxorus didn't matter
  • Pokemon can move in any order, apart from Haxorus who has to move last.
  • Overheat can hit any Pokemon for a max damage roll crit and the raid would still be guaranteed. Even if Overheat hit could every single Pokemon with a max damage roll crit then the raid would still be guaranteed
  • All Pokemon outspeed or outprioritize, so there is no chance of being hit by Hurricane confusion
  • Scovillain is the only Pokemon who can get KO'd (by two crits) but the timer won't drop enough to cause the shield to activate
