Team RoleSun Setter / Fake Tears Support
Build Notes
Choice Scarf Ninetales outpaces nearly everything in the format while supplying permanent Drought for Mega Pyroar. Fake Tears is the critical support move, dropping the opponent's Special Defense by two stages so that a single Pyroar Overheat or Heat Wave becomes a guaranteed knockout even through resists. Modest nature maximises the offensive output when Ninetales itself fires off Heat Wave or Overheat. The Choice Scarf commitment means Ninetales typically leads, locks into Fake Tears on turn one, then allows Pyroar to clean up.
