Build Notes

Gyarados provides physical disruption and speed control without requiring weather. Careful with significant HP and Defense investment hits specific bulk benchmarks. Intimidate drops opposing Attack on entry for immediate damage reduction. Thunder Wave paralyzes fast threats to create Dragon Dance setup windows for Tyranitar. Taunt stops opposing Trick Room setters and status users before they can disrupt the weather war. Waterfall provides physical STAB when damage is needed. Leftovers extends longevity. The spread is optimized for specific defensive thresholds rather than raw stats.
