Roserade @ Life Orb
Ability: Natural Cure / Technician
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Sludge Bomb
- Leaf Storm
- Spikes / Hidden Power Fire
- Synthesis


Roserade is an amazing Spiker, able to beat a plethora of entry hazard removal options like Mandibuzz, Gligar, and Mega Blastoise thanks to its extremely strong STAB attacks and access to Synthesis. Roserade can also come in against common balance staples like Milotic and Rotom-C and force them out, giving it a free turn to set up hazards. Hidden Power Fire in conjunction with Technician is another option that lets Roserade hit Steel-type l switch-ins like Escavalier, Bronzong, and Registeel extremely hard. Roserade is amazing when paired with setup sweepers like Feraligatr and Dragon Dance Flygon that capitalize on Roserade's ability to weaken their checks and counters with Spikes. Similarly, wallbreakers like Choice Band Zygarde-10%, Choice Specs Yanmega, and Choice Band Bewear can more easily net KOs thanks to Roserade's Spikes. Roserade's weakness to faster Pokemon and revenge killers like Drapion and Choice Scarf Moltres can be mitigated by running teammates like Mandibuzz and Milotic that can come in to soak up attacks Roserade can't afford to take.
