YOU ALL SAW THIS COMING
PRIMAL GROUDON!!!

Ok. This mon was a monster in ubers already with its own movepool. Now, it has a vast array of other moves it can use to fulfill its role much more effectively.

Sweeping with a fat ASS
Groudon @ Red Orb
Ability: Drought
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Heat Crash
- Precipice Blades
- Rock Polish

For this set, its basically set up and sweep everything. After setting up an sd, groudon can easily 2hko everything in the meta. With the added fire typing, and the increase in weight, heat crash becomes a stupidly powerful tool for groudon, one of many.

Let's get ready to rock !
Groudon @ Red Orb
Ability: Drought
EVs: 80 HP/ 8 Atk / 224 Def / 196 SpD
Bold Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Recover
- Roar
- Sacred Fire

Basically, this set is for utility. Set up sr, and recover off all the damage being taken. Roar is groudon's way of phasing major threats (mostly earth power xerneas), and sacred fire is there for it to not get walled by taunt and to fish for burns. The evs are set so that it can live at least one earth power from geomancy Xerneas and roar it out in time to potentially stop a sweep.



Other Options

- Stone Edge
- Dragon Claw
- Earthquake
- Sacred Fire

Checks/Counters

There are no counters to primal groudon at all.

Some pokemon to look out for though are lugia and giratina. Multiscale lugia is able to tank heat crash from groudon and can . Giratina is capable of living anything groudon has and fire back with draco meteor or phase it out with dragon tail.
