Strategy Overview

Magnezone is a dynamic Volt Switch user thanks to its Steel typing, which allows it to check foes like Gardevoir and Jirachi as well as threaten big damage on incoming Ground-types like Hippowdon and Krookodile with ease. Choice Specs + Analytic Magnezone is incredibly difficult for walls to check reliably, as it can threaten to 2HKO foes like Assault Vest Cyclizar and Registeel if they try to switch into an attack. With its natural bulk, Magnezone can opt to run defensive items like Assault Vest and Leftovers, allowing it to take more attacks in an attempt to pivot and wear the opposition down. As a great user of multiple Tera types, such as Fairy and Grass, Magnezone can pick and choose what walls it wants to break past, such as Umbreon and Gastrodon. Magnezone does struggle, however, to break through these common walls without Terastallization because of its lack of coverage moves. Magnezone also struggles to utilize Volt Switch at times, being prediction reliant against foes like Krookodile and Hippowdon that can come in and threaten it.
