- Play Rough
- Facade / Double-Edge
- Fire Fang
Mabosstiff is a trendy dog in RarelyUsed; in just the first two rounds of the RarelyUsed Ladder Tournament swiss phase, it has seen notable usage. Stakeout causes Mabosstiff to have very limited switch-ins; even something as bulky as Mudsdale takes 66% minimum from a Stakeout-boosted Crunch. One of the best answers to Mabosstiff is Tera Fairy Slowbro, but it being forced to Terastallize can be capitalized on by teammates such as Paldean Tauros-W. Play Rough slams Dark-types like Krookodile. Facade lets Mabosstiff retain usefulness if it gets burned from Coalossal's Flame Body. On the other hand, Double Edge is the most powerful move Mabosstiff has to hit Fairy-types like Sylveon and Tera Fairy Slowbro, OHKOing Sylveon with Stakeout after Stealth Rock and doing upwards of 60% to Slowbro with Stakeout. Fire Fang OHKOes Klefki with Stakeout after Stealth Rock. Tera Dark makes Mabosstiff's Crunch even stronger. A Stakeout-boosted Tera Dark Crunch has a 25% chance to OHKO extremely bulky Pokemon like Alomomola and Mudsdale and will deal a lot of damage at worst.

Mabosstiff ist ein beliebter Hund in RarelyUsed, der in den ersten beiden Runden des RarelyUsed Ladder Tournaments in der Schweizer System-Phase bemerkenswerte Verwendung gefunden hat. Durch Stakeout gibt es gegen Mabosstiff sehr begrenzte Wechselmöglichkeiten. Selbst etwas so bulkiges wie Mudsdale nimmt mindestens 66% Schaden von einem von Stakeout geboosteten Crunch. Eine der besten Antworten auf Mabosstiff ist Tera Fee Slowbro, aber wenn es gezwungen ist, Terastallize zu verwenden, kann dies von Teamkollegen wie Paldean Tauros-W ausgenutzt werden. Play Rough trifft Unlicht-Typen wie Krookodile. Facade lässt Mabosstiff seine Nützlichkeit behalten, wenn es von Coalossals Flame Body verbrannt wird. Auf der anderen Seite ist Double Edge der stärkste Angriff von Mabosstiff, um Feen-Typen wie Sylveon und Tera Fee Slowbro zu treffen, wobei Sylveon nach Stealth Rock OHKOt und Slowbro mehr als 60% Schaden zufügt wird. Fire Fang OHKOt Klefki mithilfe von Stakeout nach Stealth Rock. Tera Dark macht außerdem Mabosstiffs Crunch noch stärker. Ein von Stakeout verstärkter Tera Unlicht Crunch hat eine 25% Chance, sehr bulkige Pokémon wie Alomomola und Mudsdale zu OHKOen und wird immer viel Schaden anrichten.
