Strategy Overview
Drakloak is NFE's premier Ghost-type and an elite choice for speed control. Boasting the highest unboosted Speed in the metagame alongside a variety of utility options, Drakloak is an excellent phazer capable of disrupting attackers and walls alike with Dragon Tail, Night Shade, and status while also doubling as a spinblocker. Additionally, Drakloak is a great wallbreaker, leveraging its high-powered coverage and Speed to disrupt foes expecting utility sets, like Gabite and Naclstack. However, its frailty and typing make it very vulnerable to Knock Off, making matchups like Monferno and Thwackey difficult. Night Shade sets are walled by Normal-types like Dunsparce and Girafarig, while Choice Specs sets can suffer from being too weak even against foes like Tinkatuff and utility Dunsparce.
