- Moves
- ========
- Close Combat is a reliable STAB attack that punches holes into the opposing team
- Stone Edge covers the Flying-, Psychic-, Poison-, and Ghost-types that Close Combat misses out on
- Terrakion will typically only need Close Combat and Stone Edge throughout a match, so the final two moveslots are adjustable to what you prefer on your team
- With Earthquake, Terrakion can chip away at Doublade's health, which completely walls and sets up on Terrakion
- Iron Head makes it easier to beat some Fairy-types such as Clefable and Mega Diancie as it has great accuracy and a useful chance to flinch
- Rock Slide may be used alongside Stone Edge to safely secure KOs against weakened targets, where the power difference between the two moves doesn't make a difference
- Set Details
- ========
- Choice Scarf turns Terrakion into one of Rock Monotype's best revenge killers, and it helps it overcome its crowded Speed tier
- The EV Spread maxmizes Attack and Speed
- Justified is Terrakion's only ability, but, even though it is situational, the Attack boost that it grants is still useful.
- Usage Tips
- ========
- Don't bring it out until late-game, when the opposing team is weakened, as Choice Scarf Terrakion has trouble breaking down walls
- Operates best as a cleaner
- Don't actively seek out these boosts from Justified. Terrakion has very common weaknesses and doesn't easily switch into attacks, and losing its item to Knock Off hinders it from serving as a useful revenge killer as well.
- Team Options
- ========
- While Choice Scarf Terrakion doesn't particularly need more Speed, Sticky Web Shuckle lets Terrakion outspeed Sand Rush Excadrill, which is one of the hugest threats to Terrakion
- Calm Mind Mega Diancie, Shell Smash Omastar, and Choice Band Tyrantrum are examples of wallbreakers that make it easier for Terrakion to break through Skarmory and other physical walls
- Mega Aggron and Pursuit Tyranitar remove Fairy-types and Psychic-types, respectively, and make it easier for Terrakion to spam Close Combat
- Cradily appreciates having a teammate such as Terrakion that can revenge kill setup sweepers that set up on Cradily, like Mega Gyarados, Serperior, and Dragonite
