Drifblim @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Unburden
EVs: 12 HP / 244 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Calm Mind
- Substitute / Strength Sap
- Shadow Ball
- Thunderbolt

The July tier shifts brought Drifblim to PU, and it quickly cemented its place as a top threat thanks to Unburden and Calm Mind, allowing it to plow through teams late-game. Strength Sap allows Drifblim to use threats like Unfezant as setup fodder and makes it harder to revenge kill, while Substitute allows it to play around Sucker punch and avoid getting inflicted with a status condition from Type: Null. Partners like Heatmor, Falinks, and Appletun are appreciated, as they can weaken walls Drifblim has a hard time getting past, such as Hitmonchan and Type: Null, depending on whether it's running Substitute or Strength Sap. Drifblim greatly appreciates teammates being able to bring it in safely via moves such as Volt Switch and Flip Turn, like Boltund and Golduck, as they provide Drifblim with more setup opportunities. Lastly, entry hazard setters like Sandslash and Mareanie appreciate Drifblim spinblocking spinners like Hitmonchan, and they make Drifblim's job easier in return.

Nuke the banned mon mentions and for the love of god drop Thunder oh my god it's such a bad option don't give yourself that unreliability when you never need to OHKO a Pawniard. But the content here is good. Oh and Sub also drops ToxTurn Type Null, in general more of an emphasis on dodging Toxic is probably welcome if that could fit
