Double Dance (Iron Crown) @ Weakness Policy
Ability: Tinted Lens
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
IVs: 20 Atk
Modest Nature
- Stored Power
- Tachyon Cutter
- Calm Mind
- Agility
[SET COMMENTS]
The combination of Calm Mind and Agility, which lets Iron Crown outspeed almost the entire metagame after just one use, gives it the potential to be a deadly setup sweeper. Stored Power gives Iron Crown scaling damage, letting it 2HKO offensive threats like Iron Moth and Zamazenta after one Agility and OHKO them after one Calm Mind with some chip damage. Additionally, it lets Iron Crow 2HKO specially defensive Garchomp and RegenVest Iron Hands at +4, which can be easily achieved by letting its Weakness Policy activate. Furthermore, with one Agility boost and after Weakness Policy has activated or Calm Mind has been used twice, it lets Iron Crown OHKO even Psychic-resistant Pokemon like Corviknight and Gholdengo and 2HKO most RegenVest users, like Manaphy and Swampert. Iron Crown is heavily reliant on setup moves to perform its role, so it is easily shut down by Taunt, can be stopped by dedicated special walls like Blissey and Chansey, and needs teammates like Chien-Pao and Ogerpon-H that can handle them. A dual screens setter like Corviknight or Deoxys-S is appreciated to help Iron Crown with both activating its Weakness Policy and setting up safely. Bulky Dark-types like Mandibuzz and Kingambit give Iron Crown a lot of trouble, so teammates like Galvanize Kommo-o and Iron Hands are needed to remove them.
