Adamant Nature

- Close Combat
- Sucker Punch
- Play Rough

What's Updog, you ask? Not much, but have you heard that Lycanroc-N is currently one of the strongest wallbreakers in ZU? Stone Edge with No Guard makes for a spammable STAB move that 2HKOes bulky walls like Alcremie and Miltank. Rock-resistant foes such as Rhydon, Klinklang, Poliwrath, and Throh fall to Close Combat or Play Rough. Sucker Punch makes up for Lycanroc-N's mediocre Speed, revenge killing faster threats like Rotom, Jynx, and Froslass. Lycanroc-N appreciates Knock Off support from Thwackey and Sawk to cripple item-dependent Pokemon such as Tangela and Gurdurr, and Lycanroc-N threatens Flying-types like Altaria and Rotom-S in return. Special attackers like Skuntank and Jynx threaten Grass-types such as Gourgeist-S and Thwackey for Lycanroc-N, while it helps against Stunfisk and Coalossal. Lycanroc-N fears revenge killers like Sawk and Alolan Dugtrio, so switch-ins like Qwilfish and Tangela are crucial; the former also provides Spikes support to aid Lycanroc-N's wallbreaking.

What's Updog you ask. Not much, but have you heard that Lycanroc-N is currently one of the most potent wallbreakers in ZU. Stone Edge in conjunction with No Guard makes for a spammable STAB move 2HKOing bulky walls like Alcremie and Miltank. Rock-resistant foes such as Rhydon, Klinklang, Poliwrath, and Throh are covered by Close Combat and Play Rough respectively. Sucker Punch makes up for Lycanroc-N's mediocre sSpeed allowing it to revenge kill faster threats like Rotom, Jynx, and Froslass. Lycanroc-N appreciates Knock Off support from Thwackey and Sawk weakening crippling item-dependent Pokemon such as Tangela and Gurdurr, and Lycanroc-N threatens Flying-types like Altaria and Rotom-S in return. Special attackers like Skuntank and Jynx pair well with Lycanroc-N as they threaten Grass-types such as Gourgeist-S and Thwackey, while Lycanroc-N can help against Stunfisk and Coalossal. Lycanroc-N is vulnerable to being revenged killed by Sawk and Alolan Dugtrio so having switch-ins like Qwilfish, Alcremie, and Tangela are crucial seems odd to have 2 of those losing to duggy; the former also provides Spikes support to further aid Lycanroc-N's wallbreaking attempts.

What's Updog, (comma) you ask? (question mark) Not much, but have you heard that Lycanroc-N is currently one of the most potent strongest wallbreakers in ZU? (question mark) Stone Edge in conjunction with No Guard makes for a spammable STAB move 2HKOing that 2HKOes bulky walls like Alcremie and Miltank.

Lycanroc-N is vulnerable to being revenged killed by Sawk and Alolan Dugtrio so having switch-ins like Qwilfish, Alcremie, Tangela and Poliwrath fears revenge killers like Sawk and Alolan Dugtrio, so switch-ins like Qwilfish and Tangela (having two is preferred, and i assume tang doesnt lose to duggy-a like alcremie presumably does?) are crucial; the former also provides Spikes support to aid Lycanroc-N's wallbreaking.
