Dual Iron Press Mega Slowbro Semi-Stall

Posted by M1dnight00

Analysis

The team was built around the synergy of Mega-Slowbro as a dual-boosting tank that can solo-win games once Special Attackers are removed. To facilitate this, Alomomola was added to provide necessary Wish support since mega-Slowbro recovery (Rest) is passive. Blissey and Gliscor were integrated to form a nearly unbreakable special defensive core while providing both Stealth Rock and Spikes. Corviknight was chosen to provide hazard removal and a secondary physical win condition that shares the "Iron Press" theme. Finally, ChoiceBand Weavile was the crucial "Semi-Stall" addition, providing the speed and Pursuit-trapping capability to eliminate Ghost and Psychic threats that could otherwise block the team's primary offensive move, Body Press.

Performance: N/A

Mega Slowbro Semi Stall | Peaked 1882, 92.6% Highest Current GXE

Analysis

Do you remember when Mega Slowbro had a viability ranking of A- in National Dex? Seems hard to believe that this mon is now completely unranked in the tier. Obviously a lot of this has to do with metagame shifts and Dracovish being banned, but Mega Slowbro is such a unique pick for fat teams that I really wanted to do something with. It's pretty niche unlike its non-evolved form but definitely has its uses. I've been able to adapt an old team from SM OU into the NatDex format and make use of Mega Slowbro without feeling like I'm sacrificing viability by not using a more standard fat pick for my mega slot. I think this is maybe the best team I've built in NatDex and certainly the most consistent when played correctly.
