Build Notes

Torkoal anchors the sun archetype by setting Drought on entry, which simultaneously powers Eruption and Heat Wave, charges Electro Shot for Archaludon, boosts Heliolisk's Solar Power Special Attack bonus, and enables instant Solar Beam. Eruption at full HP in sun is one of the strongest spread moves in the game, and Overheat provides a single-target nuke when Torkoal's HP has dropped. Quiet nature maximizes the damage of both Fire moves while the low Speed lets Torkoal move last in normal conditions, preserving Eruption power until needed. Sitrus Berry patches HP midgame. The 32 Def SP give it physical bulk to tank Rock Slides, and 32 SpA maximizes its own damage output.
