Gholdengo

Gholdengo is the team's second win condition, using Good as Gold to ignore the status moves that would otherwise cripple its Nasty Plot turns. Modest nature spreads SP across HP, Defense, Special Attack, and Speed instead of maxing one stat, giving it enough bulk to survive a hit while setting up and enough Speed to outrun common threats like Sylveon. Life Orb pushes Make It Rain and Shadow Ball into two-hit-KO range across most of the format. Once ahead a Nasty Plot it cleans through backline Pokemon that Incineroar and Floette have already softened.
