Build Notes

Mega Staraptor carries Facade specifically to punish the status conditions, especially Will-O-Wisp, that players normally use to shut it down. Getting burned just means Facade hits even harder instead of crippling it. Adamant with max HP and near-max Attack makes it hit hard on its own without needing Whimsicott-style support, and it slots into either the team's faster mode or its Trick Room mode depending on the matchup, especially with Helping Hand support behind it.
