Ditto @ Choice Scarf
Name: Choice Scarf Revenge Killer
Ability: Imposter
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 Def
IVs: 0 Spe
Relaxed Nature
- Transform

[SET COMMENTS]
Thanks to Ditto's signature ability Imposter, which also copies enemy stat changes, Ditto is one of the best revenge killers in the tier. Ditto's presence alone scares off sweepers like Baxcalibur and Azumarill from setting up. Ditto does not copy the enemy HP stat, so 248 HP EVs are used to minimize damage taken from entry hazards before transforming while maximizing Ditto's HP stat, as well as allowing Ditto to use Struggle 4 times before it faints. 252 Defense EVs minimize the damage Ditto takes from opposing Ditto in the extremely rare mirror matchup. Finally, a Relaxed nature coupled with 0 Speed IVs guarantees that Imposter will never activate first, which ensures that Ditto will have more Transform PP in the aforementioned mirror match.

Ursaluna is a great teammate for Ditto, as it can switch into walls and begin applying immediate pressure. Ditto also appreciates Ursaluna's unrivaled ability to punch holes in the opposing team, making a late-game Ditto sweep much easier. If Ditto copies certain targets like Chien-Pao and a majority of the opposing team is weakened, Ditto can win the game. Indeedee is a good teammate for Ditto, as its Psychic Surge ability prevents Ditto from being picked off by priority moves. Blissey is a nice partner for Ditto, as it can absorb status moves that would otherwise cripple Ditto and then shrug them off via Natural Cure. Blissey can also use Thunder Wave to slow down opposing Choice Scarf users that would otherwise Speed tie with Ditto such as Meowscarada and Enamorus Choice Specs Hisuian Zoroark is a powerful teammate that pairs well with Ditto, as Ditto can copy the stat boosts from setup sweepers that aim to take advantage of a Choice-locked Hisuian Zoroark. Cyclizar can be used to remove entry hazards so that Ditto can switch in frequently without getting chipped. Additionally, it is able to keep hazards away and use Shed Tail to bring Ditto in behind a Substitute and make it even more threatening. Maushold can use its high speed tier to lock Bulk Up users like Landorus-Therian that would otherwise be able to stall out Ditto. Additionally, Maushold is able to break down walls due to the sheer power of Population Bomb. Pivots are great teammates for Ditto because they can lure in targets for Ditto to copy. Choice Scarf Staraptor and Defensive Braviary are solid picks, as they can use U-turn to go right into Ditto. Braviary is also capable of using Defog to keep Ditto alive for longer.

Ursaluna is a great teammate for Ditto as it can switch in to walls and begin applying immediate pressure. Ditto also appreciates Ursaluna's unrivaled ability to punch holes in the opposing team, making an end-game Ditto sweep much easier. Indeedee is a good teammate for Ditto as its Psychic Surge ability prevents Ditto from being picked off by priority moves. Blissey is a nice compliment for Ditto, as it can absorb status moves that would otherwise cripple Ditto, then shrug them off via Natural Cure. Blissey can also use Thunder Wave to slow down opposing Choice Scarf users which would otherwise tie Ditto in speed. Cyclizar can be used to remove entry hazards so that Ditto can switch in frequently without getting chipped. Maushold can use its high speed tier to Encore Bulk Up or Calm Mind users like Landorus-Therian and Iron Valiant that would otherwise be able to stall out Ditto.
*For team mates imo, I think Pivoters makes for better mentions as you can lure in someone for Ditto to copy. Cyclizar has shed tail so you're extremely safe as you imposterize someone (and keep hazards away) as you mentioned. Bliss has Hwish

Will recheck after 2nd paragraph is edited, thankie

Ursaluna is a great teammate for Ditto as it can switch in to walls and begin applying immediate pressure. Ditto also appreciates Ursaluna's unrivaled ability to punch holes in the opposing team, making an end-game Ditto sweep much easier (For instance, Dark teams having a weakened sab or tinglu means a ditto copying Paopao can just win :o). Indeedee is a good teammate for Ditto as its Psychic Surge ability prevents Ditto from being picked off by priority moves. Blissey is a nice compliment for Ditto, as it can absorb status moves that would otherwise cripple Ditto, then shrug them off via Natural Cure. Blissey can also use Thunder Wave to slow down opposing Choice Scarf users which would otherwise tie Ditto in speed (it and Indeed have HWish which is great for it). Cyclizar can be used to remove entry hazards so that Ditto can switch in frequently without getting chipped. Maushold can use its high speed tier to Encore Bulk Up or Calm Mind users like Landorus-Therian and Iron Valiant (val is actually faster than it) that would otherwise be able to stall out Ditto (it also, like Luna, can break down walls because Pop bomb op :o). Pivots are great teammates for Ditto because they can lure in targets for Ditto to copy. Staraptor and Braviary are solid picks, as they can use U-turn to go right into Ditto (Scarf Raptor, Defensive Brav. Brav also gets to defog). Cyclizar is a great teammate as well, as it is able to keep hazards away and use Shed Tail so Ditto can get a substitute while transforming into an opponent, thus making Ditto even more threatening.(merge this to the current cyclizar line)
