Build Notes

This Malamar deliberately skips Mega Evolution, holding Roseli Berry to absorb Fairy damage instead, which is what lets the team run both Mega Mawile and Mega Staraptor at once. Contrary means Superpower's stat drops become boosts, making it more threatening the longer it stays in. Brave with max HP and Attack fits its role as a slow Trick Room setter, and Knock Off strips items from whatever tries to punish it before the room goes up.
