- This one is easily one of the most annoying. Dragonite just has so many options, it makes dealing with it a nightmare in the long term.
- I have a plan B, which involves just reversing it's boosts, but I don't like any teams that Malamar was fitting into.
- HOWEVER
- We can win. Probably.
- Iron Hands: Thing 1 (Tera Fighting)
- Low Sweep until you can Tera, then Swords Dance (At least once, maybe twice?) and use Tera Blast for damage and Drain Punch for healing. Very straightforward. Iron Hands can take 1 Hurricane from Dragonite prior to terastilization, and thankfully, it only needs to take 1. Tera will remove the weakness to Earthquake to allow for safer setup with Swords Dance. Quark Drive + Life orb = boosted base damage of ~70%. This is without any Swords Dance boosts and can't be removed when Dragonite resets stats and cancels abilities (at least I don't think it cancels Quark Drive, but even so, that only lasts for that 1 turn).
- Iron Hands: Thing 2(Tera Fighting)
- See Thing 1, literally exactly the same.
- Gothitelle: Weird Aunt? She's not mother. (Will not tera)
- She's here to set up screens, heal pulse, and tickle. Priority #1 is to get up Reflect as soon as possible. After that, Tickle the Dragonite unless one of the Metal Cyborgs are low on HP (but they do have drain punch so...). Once the shield goes up, Tickle will fail, leaving you open to heal more often while the Thing Twins(tm) attack. Light Screen when Dragonite gets around 40-50% HP, as it will use Draco Meteor at that point. Otherwise, main priority is keeping up Reflect and healing allies. Once the shield vanishes, you can resume tickling as well.
- Pincurchin: Mr. Battery (Tera Ghost)
- Mr. Battery is key for getting the Bash Brothers online with its Electric Surge. Alternate between Chilling Water and Scald until Dragonite is burned. Them just Chilling Water. Use Electric Terrain whenever it wears off, and tera as soon as possible to get rid of the weakness to Earthquake.
