NPC Advantages: Arboliva banned because seed sower lays grassy terrain, which gives a 1.3x damage boost to supereffective grass knot. 1 intimidator (tauros, staraptor, arcanine) needed if not using chilling water (which can replace rain dance or rest). gardevoir (life dew, synchronize for burns), bellibolt (discharge, light screen), umbreon (thunder wave, synchronize for burns), drifblim (will-o-wisp), sylveon (charm, moonblast), and dudunsparce (thunder wave) are helpful.
Strategy: wait for your stats to reset. rest when HP gets low and the shell bell isn't ready yet. 6x calm mind. 3x sparkling aria. terastalize. sparkling aria, rain dance (or 2x chilling water if you have it), sparkling aira to victory.
Pros: supereffective tera type matching base type, great HP and special defense stats, good defense stat, excellent special attack stat, resists flare blitz, 44kg mass gives grass knot a base power of 60 (rather than its max of 120), which makes up for the weakness. shell bell heals when attacking, an amount equal to 1/8 of damage dealt. rain dance puts up rain for 5 turns, which boosts damage output and shell bell healing, and activates hydration to clear a burn from flare blitz. calm mind buffs 1 special attack stage and 1 special defense stage. rest heals full HP bar (and heals burns). sparkling aria has 90 base power, 100 accuracy, and deals supereffective STAB (tera-boosted when terastalized) damage.
Cons: outsped by infernape
Overall Rating: 8/10
