- YOOOO. soooooo... this pimpin scarf nihilego squaaa is a pretty fun ho team built around voltturning and allowing nihilego to clean up with beast boost. so many people use nihilego wrong by giving it a sash and making it set up rocks until it dies, which is not where i think its potential lies. The upside to this, though, is that nobody (and i mean nobody) expects scarf on nihilego, which can let it nab a beast boost when they stay in with their pheromosa or scarf lele. so now ill go through the whole thing since im currently trying to put off writing an essay.
- nihilego is obv the star of the team, abusing its good rock and poison stab to pick off threats and sweep. power gem is an especially spammable move that nothing is immune to, allowing it to clean late-game. you can slash sludge wave over bomb, but i prefer bomb for the chance to poison, wearing down checks even more. however, not many nihilego switchins get poisoned anyways. hp fire for scizor or steels on the switch in a pinch, and stealth rocks because it didnt fit anywhere else.
- zagnemone is an especially good partner for nihilego to get rid of pesky steels that resist poison and steel. not much to say here. i like non choice with shuca since it bluffs choice item (not allowing toxapex to scout), and shuca lets it take eq from mega metagross and hp ground from tapu koko.
- tapu fini is the defogger and switchin to pheromosa and a lot of other threats. calm mind allows it to not be passive, and it can even act as a wincon.
- pheromosa is pheromosa.
- tapu koko is tapu koko. because of the hit and run nature of the team, ive found specs to suit it better than life orb. i never really plan on staying in for more than one attack, and life orb recoil has lost me games. standard dot standard with hp ground for dat wak
- and now pyukumuku. yes that is 20 defense ivs. this team gets dismantled by scarf kartana, and the ivs with no investment guarantees pyukumuku dies 100% of the time to jolly leaf blade, even at full. innards out does what it does best by getting rid of threats or at least weakening them for nihilego to sweeeeeep. the moveset is standard pyuku, and its honestly there just to sack to threats, but thats what it does best. clutch z memento might be cool.
- well thats all folks. its a fun team, prob not world-beating, but okay to use on the ladder. the key to the team is just to volt turn and wear stuff down so nihilego can power gem everything. remember to play pyukumuku right since innards out damage can often mean the difference between a loss and a win
