Silvally-Steel @ Steel Memory
Ability: RKS System
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Multi-Attack
- Flame Charge
- Rock Slide

Silvally-Steel's powerful Multi-Attack in conjunction with Swords Dance and Flame Charge allows it to become an incredibly potent wallbreaker and late-game cleaner in PU, muscling past natural checks like Palossand. Flame Charge hits Steel-types such as Togedemaru and Magneton while simultaneously boosting its Speed, enabling it to outspeed slower Choice Scarf users like Mesprit and Passimian. Rock Slide provides coverage and OHKOes Pokemon like Charizard and Centiskorch. Healing Wish support from Mesprit can prove useful, as Silvally-Steel is prone to being worn down quickly and can whittle down Garbodor and Sandaconda without being worried about chip damage. Alolan Exeggutor and Heliolisk both provide excellent offensive capabilities that help steer away bulky Water-types such as Lanturn and Jellicent. Substitute is an option to allow it to disrupt and break defensive teams that rely on Pokemon such as Weezing and Sandaconda, as well as giving Silvally-Steel plenty of opportunities to setup, however, it loses a huge target in Charizard.

Silvally-Steel's powerful Multi-Attack, in conjunction with Swords Dance and Flame Charge, allow it to become an incredibly potent wallbreaker and late-game cleaner in PU, muscling past natural checks such as Palossand and Rhydon why would Rhydon be a natural check??? definitely put something else here. Flame Charge allows Silvally-Fairy to hit Steel-types such as Magneton togedemaru is kind of obligatory to mention here, it's 40x more relevant while simultaneously boosting its Speed, enabling it to outspeed slower Choice Scarf users like Mesprit and Passimian. Rock Slide provides coverage and OHKOes Pokemon like Charizard and Centiskorch. Healing Wish support from Mesprit can prove useful as Silvally-Steel is prone to being worn down quickly and can whittle down Garbodor and Sandaconda without being worried about chip damage. Alolan Exeggutor and Heliolisk both provide excellent offensive capabilities which help steer away bulky Water-types such as Lanturn and Jellicent. Screens support from Xatu aids Silvally-Steel and generates more opportunities for it to set up Swords Dance against Pokemon like Mesprit and Silvally-Fairy. I'd rather drop the screens mention since we don't really know where it's gonna be after this light clay ban. I think the final sentence could mention substitute as an alternative to rock slide, it can mess with a few things like weezing and xatu and dodge status but obviously not hitting charizard is a definite downside
do that and it'll be 1/1
