Jirachi

Steel

Jirachi is the premier special attacker for Steel with its huge pool of coverage moves such as Psyshock, Moonblast, Thunderbolt, and Energy Ball, which allow it to improve the Poison, Dragon, Flying, Water, and Ground matchups. It also has a good Speed tier, which allows it to outspeed and OHKO threats such as Urshifu-R, Nidoking, and Hydreigon. Furthermore, its decent bulk and neutrality to Fighting allow it to take a hit in a pinch and be a good answer to Tapu Lele. However, its Special Attack is quite lackluster, as Jirachi fails to OHKO bulky Pokemon such as Kyurem, Hippowdon, and Toxapex even with Choice Specs. Because of this, Jirachi needs support from wallbreakers like Bisharp and Melmetal to remove specially defensive Pokemon, such as Galarian Slowking, and Pokemon that resist its attacks like Heatran.
