Choice Specs Iron Valiant is a potent wallbreaker, boasting powerful STAB moves and colourful coverage options, which make it extremely difficult to check it defensively. Furthermore, its great natural Speed stat allows it to force out numerous threats in the tier such as Mega Medicham and Urshifu-R. Thunderbolt nails Toxapex, while also hitting Corviknight and Volcarona without risking a miss. Shadow Ball lets Iron Valiant pressure Galarian Slowking, while being generally risk-free due to its lack of sturdy resists. Trick is an option to cripple passive checks like Toxapex and Clodsire, heavily impeding their ability to act as an effective defensive piece. Tera Fairy boosts Iron Valiant’s Moonblast to impressive levels, denting even sturdy resists like Mega Scizor hard, while Tera Ghost makes Shadow Ball as spammable as its STAB moves and is extremely effective due to the lack of common Pokemon resistant or immune to Ghost; however, this does make it prone to being Pursuit trapped by Weavile and Mega Tyranitar. Iron Valiant appreciates pivoting support from Pokemon like Landorus-T, Tornadus-T, and Tapu Koko to constantly bring it in on foes like opposing Landorus-T and Raging Bolt. Tapu Koko’s Electric Surge also activates Quark Drive, making it significantly harder to revenge kill Iron Valiant with otherwise dangerous revenge killers such as Mega Lopunny and Choice Scarf Kartana. Mega Tyranitar, Weavile, and Galarian Slowking are also good partners, as they can remove or pressure Iron Valiant’s biggest checks in opposing Galarian Slowking and Toxapex. Entry hazard support from Ferrothorn, Hisuian Samurott, and Garchomp is also important, as they can wear down Iron Valiant’s less sturdy checks such as Heatran, opposing Ferrothorn, and Mega Scizor very quickly. Lastly, offensive teammates like Ogerpon-W, Mega Latios, and Raging Bolt work really well with Iron Valiant as they can easily overload their shared checks like Ferrothorn, Galarian Slowking, and Heatran together.

Shadow Ball lets Iron Valiant pressure Galarian Slowking, while being extremely spammable due to its lack of sturdy resists. im not convinced irt adding this mention of it being "spammable" when tera ghost is slashed behind fairy and its hella weak otherwise Tera Fairy boosts Iron Valiant’s Moonblast to impressive levels, denting even sturdy resists hard, while Tera Ghost makes Shadow Ball equally as spammable as its STABs and is extremely effective due to its lack of common resists and immunities. id mention tera ghosts downside in that it makes you pursuit weak and makes spamming sball a bit less free vs trappers; not being weak to suit is a pretty good boon for val compared to lele and i think its worth highlighting Iron Valiant appreciates pivoting support from Pokemon like Landorus-T, Tornadus-T, and Tapu Koko to constantly bring it in. Tapu Koko’s Electric Surge also activates Quark Drive, making it significantly harder to revenge kill Iron Valiant. Mega Tyranitar, Weavile and Galarian Slowking are also good partners as they can remove and pressure Iron Valiant’s biggest checks in opposing Galarian Slowking and Toxapex, allowing it to freely spam its STABs. Hazard support from Ferrothorn, Hisuian Samurott, and Garchomp are also important, as they can wear down Iron Valiant’s less sturdy checks such as Heatran, opposing Ferrothorn, and Mega Scizor very quickly.

Shadow Ball lets Iron Valiant pressure Galarian Slowking, while being risk-free due to its lack of sturdy resists while true, it is still quite a weak move that plenty of mons can easily exploit you locking into, i think risk-free is a bit odd phrasing-wise. Tera Fairy boosts Iron Valiant’s Moonblast to impressive levels, denting even sturdy resists like? hard, while Tera Ghost makes Shadow Ball equally as spammable as its STABs and is extremely effective due to its lack of common resists and immunities, however it does make it prone to being Pursuit trapped by Weavile and Mega Tyranitar. (AP) Iron Valiant appreciates pivoting support from Pokemon like Landorus-T, Tornadus-T, and Tapu Koko to constantly bring it in on who?. Tapu Koko’s Electric Surge also activates Quark Drive, making it significantly harder to revenge kill Iron Valiant with otherwise dangerous revenge killers such as Mega Lopunny and Choice Scarf Kartana. Mega Tyranitar, Weavile and Galarian Slowking are also good partners as they can remove and pressure Iron Valiant’s biggest checks in opposing Galarian Slowking and Toxapex, allowing it to freely spam its STABs. is this last part of the sentence rly necessary? obviously that's what it lets it do Hazard support from Ferrothorn, Hisuian Samurott, and Garchomp are also important, as they can wear down Iron Valiant’s less sturdy checks such as Heatran, opposing Ferrothorn, and Mega Scizor very quickly. Lastly, offensive teammates like Mega Latios, Ogerpon W, mega latios and ogerpon-w should be swapped in the order they appear here and Raging Bolt work really well with Iron Valiant as they can easily overload their shared checks like Ferrothorn, Galarian Slowking, and Heatran together.
