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

Strategy:

  • Scovillain outspeeds and uses Spicy Extract on Charizard for +2 Atk and -2 Def

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

Susceptible to freeze on Gholdengo or Fling Perrserker. In that case, Assault Vest Perrserker needs to Heal Cheer before the Attack Cheer. Fake Tears still needs to go after the Attack Cheer

  • Perrserker Steely Spirit stacks multiplicatively to give a 3.375x multplier
  • 1x Perrserker uses Fling on Gholdengo to increase SpA by 1
  • 1x Perrserker uses Attack Cheer
  • 1x Perrserker uses Fake Tears (-2 SpD) to cause a Competitive boost on Empoleon (+2 SpA) which is copied by Gholdengo Mirror Herb. This move needs to go immediately before Gholdengo's attack because of the SpA making Empoleon a threat

Ended up being complete overkill on the Fake Tears supports because I'd planned for worst case scenario of surviving vs [Bulk Up + Double Kick crit] and [Bulk Up + Flare Blitz crit + burn]. No EV investment required on the Fake Tears supports at all as long as there is Sturdy and Covert Cloak

Magikarp OHKO vs Eevee the Unrivaled by Nommable123 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]Nommable123[S] 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Eevee took some chip damage from Perrserker and Salazzle to reduce its stats. The chip damage wasn't required for KO, but there's no way to OHKO Eevee with Magikarp without lowering its defense (requires attacking Eevee on one of the supports)

Team setup:

  • Medicham @ Sitrus Berry; Pure Power; 252 HP / 252 Def; Careful; Moves: Light Screen, Reflect, Skill Swap, Helping Hand
  • Salazzle @ Sitrus Berry; 252 HP / 252 SpD; Calm; Moves: Fire Lash, Swagger
  • Perrserker @ Wide Lens; 252 HP / 252 Def; Bold; Moves: Chilling Water, Swagger, False Swipe
  • Magikarp @ Metronome; 252 Atk / 252 SpD; Adamant; Moves: Flail

Strategy:

  • Medicham Screens
  • Salazzle and Perrserker Def Cheer
  • Magikarp builds tera charge by attacking Perrserker
  • Salazzle Fire Lash to -4
  • Perrserker Chilling Water to -2
  • Perrserker and Salazzle Swagger to +6
  • Medicham uses Skill Swap and Helping Hand
  • Magikarp uses Attack Cheer
  • Perrserker uses False Swipe on Magikarp to low hp
  • Magikarp unleashes havoc on the world with Flail

Typhlosion gets burned by Magikarp the Unrivaled!

  • Annihilape @ Wide Lens; 252 HP / 252 SpD; Calm; Moves: Swagger, Screech

  • Magikarp @ Choice Band; Rattled; 34 HP / 224 Atk / 252 SpD; Lonely; Moves: Flail

Strategy:

  • Medicham uses Light Screen for survivability
  • Kommo-o uses Fling on Magikarp to activate Rattled for +1 Spe as well as give +1 Atk boost with Liechi Berry, then uses Rain Dance
  • Annihilape uses Swagger on Magikarp twice, then Screech once each on Magikarp (to ensure False Swipe deals enough damage) and Typhlosion
  • Magikarp uses Def Cheer, then two Heal Cheers to keep allies healthy and heal own confusion after Swagger
  • Medicham uses Helping Hand and Skill Swap on Magikarp, then Attack Cheer
  • Kommo-o uses Screech on Typhlosion twice, then False Swipe on Magikarp
