Strategy Overview

Zamazenta is a good physical wall with its neutral typing against most physical threats, Stealth Rock resistance, decent bulk, and ability to outspeed many prominent physical attackers such as Ash-Greninja. Its servicable Attack and dangerous STAB moves such as Combat Torque and Triple Arrows also make Zamazenta less passive and actually capable of threatening certain walls out, also making it an excellent Mortal Spin user. Zamazenta's physical bulk is decent but not great, making it vulnerable to foes such as Mega Blaziken and Mega Garchomp. Zamazenta also struggles to deal any meaningful damage against foes that resist its Fighting-type STAB moves and can ignore poison from Mortal Spin like Magic Guard Arceus-Ghost or Eternatus, although it can still fish for a Combat Torque paralysis. In addition, Zamazenta is heavily prepared for by virtue of being the most versatile physical wall, which can lead to some consistency issues.
