Heracross
Base Stats: 80 | 125 | 75 | 40 | 95 | 85
Typing: Bug / Fighting
Intro: Heracross is a great contender for UU as it has great typing and nice attack stat. Stealth Rock is the best support move to help out Heracross since most of its counters take more damage from it (ex. Victini, Darmanitan, Xatu) Heracross can serve a variety of different roles and it may be too late for one if he/she guesses the wrong set.
Sets:
Choice Scarf
Jolly/ Adamant
4 HP | 252 Atk | 252 Spe
Item: Choice Scarf duh!
Ability: Moxie
Moves~
-Megahorn
-Close Combat
-Stone Edge
-Pursuit
Possibly the most common set seen on Heracross and probably one of the best. With its DW ability, Heracross can pull a late game sweep quite nicely. This set is easily countered by bulky ghost types like Dusclops and Cofagrigus. They can be easily dealt with by phazers like Snorlax, Milotic, Blastoise.
Status Orb
Adamant/ Jolly
4 HP | 252 Atk | 252 Spe
Item: Flame Orb/ Toxic Orb
Ability: Guts
Moves~
-Megahorn
-Close Combat
-Stone Edge
-Facade
Non choice attacking set. Flame Orb is preferred if you want to stick around for more than two turns, but Toxic Orb inflicts less damage for those two turns.
Swords Dance
Jolly /Adamant
4 HP | 252 Atk | 252 Spe
Item: Leftovers/ Flame Orb
Ability: Guts
Moves~
-Megahorn
-Close Combat
-Stone Edge/ Facade
-Swords Dance
This set is for people who need sheer power to break walls. Facade can be used if you hate Stone Edge's miss rate. Leftovers is to help Heracross gain some recovery from entry hazards and Flame Orb sacrifices longevity for power.
Choice Band
Jolly/ Adamant
4 HP | 252 Atk | 252 Spe
Item: Choice Band... of course
Ability: Moxie/ Guts
Moves~
-Megahorn
-Close Combat
-Stone Edge
-Pursuit/ Earthquake
Use Moxie if you want extra boosts or Guts to help against things like Toxic Spikes or burn.
