Strategy Overview

Electric

Zeraora is the most viable physical attacker for Electric teams thanks to its good Attack stat, amazing coverage options, and stellar Speed tier, allowing it to break through troublesome specially defensive walls like Blissey and Galarian Slowking. Its Speed tier lets it handle threats to Electric teams like non-Choice Scarf Dragapult, Spectrier, and Choice Band Weavile. Its access to Outrage is particularly useful for the Dragon matchup, which is very threatening to Electric teams. It is able to either act as an immediately powerful wallbreaker with Choice Band or a threatening setup sweeper with Bulk Up. However, despite Zeraora's great Speed tier, it is outsped and revenge killed by Choice Scarf users like Blacephalon, Galarian Darmanitan, and Excadrill. Its poor bulk also makes it vulnerable to priority users like Dragonite, Bisharp, and Crawdaunt after chip damage and limits its ability to switch in safely. Its sole Electric typing leaves much to be desired, relying on Plasma Fists to deal heavy damage.
