Build Notes
Garchomp is the team's consistent damage dealer and provides coverage for the Dragon and Rock types that Raichu-X cannot threaten with its dual Electric moves. Life Orb amplifies all three coverage moves. Jolly with maxed Attack and Speed outspeeds opposing Garchomp and most unboosted threats in the format, allowing it to KO Fast 4.0 opponents. Rock Slide targets Charizard and provides spread flinch pressure. Dragon Claw handles opposing Dragons. Earthquake is broadly spammable spread damage. Rough Skin punishes contact moves, including Volt Tackle, discouraging physical attackers from targeting it repeatedly. The HP SP investment reaches a specific Life Orb recoil survivability threshold.
