Strategy Overview

Fraxure's access to both Dragon Dance and Swords Dance allows it to perform the role of either a sweeper or a wallbreaker. Fraxure's huge Attack stat coupled with a nearly unresisted STAB type in Dragon and an extremely powerful move in Outrage makes it rather threatening to take on defensively, and it even has the coverage moves necessary to eliminate the few Dragon-resistant and -immune Pokemon of PU. Additionally, its good set of resistances combined with Eviolite grants it many setup opportunities against offensive and defensive Pokemon alike. Mold Breaker allows Fraxure to bypass Sturdy and, in rare cases, Wonder Guard. However, Fraxure's low Speed tier for an offensive Pokemon leaves it susceptible to revenge killing, as every viable Choice Scarf user outspeeds it even after a Dragon Dance boost. Fraxure is also heavily reliant on Outrage to get KOs, but locking into the move can lead to an unfavorable situation against foes such as Pawniard.
