[OVERVIEW]
* Great SpA stat and good Atk stat allow it to go mixed or special attacker with decent bulk
* A strong movepool containing Trick Room, Wood Hammer and Draco Meteor has been strengthened with the addition Flamethrower, Dragon Hammer
* Very low speed stat makes it an excellent abuser of trick room
* Grass/Dragon typing allows it to take water, electric and grass attacks with ease while being neutral to fire
* While its abilities have some good use, for example Harvest to regenerate berries 50% of the time and Frisk to reveal foe's held item, they do not generally help it offensively which is it's main niche here
* Grass/Dragon is walled by Steels and as such you will need coverage items to get passed them
* x4 Weakness to Ice, a very common offensive typing/move (ice beam, hidden power ice) limits it
[SET]

evs: 252 HP/252 SpA/4 Def
ivs: 0 Spe
[SET COMMENTS]
Moves
========
* Trick room allows it to turn it's very low speed and speed tiers upside down and almost always ensures it goes first as long as it's in effect
* Draco Meteor is its strongest STAB, heavily damages anything that doesn't resist it
* Sludge Bomb can be used instead to avoid SpA drops and handle fairies with ease but makes you ineffective against common Dragons
* Flame thrower is a must to deal with Steels such Celesteela, Ferrothorn and Scizor for example and offensive threats such as Genesect, Pheromosa
* Giga drain is both an attack and restores some HP depending on damage dealt
* Leaf Storm is another one use strong STAB that can be used
Set Details
========
* Quiet nature decreases speed further while boosting SpA, while the rest is put into maximum bulk
* 124 HP / 252 SpA/ 132 Spe EVs with Modest nature can allow Exeguttor to outspeed Chansey, Clefable and Azumarill and can function without Trick Room against Stall teams
* Life Orb powers all it's offensive moves, while Dragonium Z enables it to use 2 Draco Meteors before SpA drop and is a one off nuke, Sitrus berry can activate 50% after first consumption and restores health and Lum Berry fends of status helping against Stall especially
* Ability is chosen depending on item, Harvest for berries, Frisk for everything else
Usage Tips
========
* Mid-game it can be used to switch into resists or after something dies and then activating Trick Room to start attacking
* Late game it can switch into resists or after something dies against a set up sweeper, reverse speed tiers and allow you to turn the tide and finish off the weakened enemy or punch enough holes to allow another sweeper to do so
Team Options
========
* Tapu Bulu activates grassy terrain which powers up Grass moves 50% and allows you to regain health
* Dugtrio is an excellent partner than can use SR, trap Heatran, Alola Marowak and Chansey
* Celesteela can take anything Weavile and Mamoswine throw at it and acts as a switch in against ice moves
* Trick room users allows Exeggutor to start attacking immeadiately without initial set up of its own
* Weavile and Mamoswine can be used to counter Dragons if you choose Sludge Bomb instead

Moves
========
* Trick room allows it to turn it's very low speed and speed tiers upside down and almost always ensures it goes first as long as it's in effect
* Dragon Hammer is better Dragon claw with 90 BP with STAB
* Earthquake can be used instead to deal with its normal hard counters such as Heatran
* Flame thrower is a must to deal with Steels such Celesteela, Ferrothorn and Scizor for example and offensive threats such as Genesect, Pheromosa
* Wood Hammer is the primary STAB, allowing it to hit all Tapus, Special Walls and anything neutral for massive damage and has the benefit of triggering Sitrus more than often
Set Details
========
* Brave nature decreases speed further while boosting Atk, while the rest is put into maximum bulk and 4 evs into SpA
* Sitrus berry is used to recover HP and regain what is lost through the use of Wood Hammer, Grassium Z insteads turns into a grass typed nuke, while life orb powers all offensive options and lum protects from burn status among others
* Ability is chosen depending on item, Harvest for berries, Frisk for everything else
Usage Tips
========
* Mid-game it can be used to switch into resists or after something dies and then activating Trick Room to start attacking
* Late game against a set up sweeper, it can reverse speed tiers and allow you to turn the tide and finish off the weakned enemy or punch enough holes to allow another sweeper to do so
Team Options
========
* Tapu Bulu activates grassy terrain which powers up Grass moves 50% and allows you to regain health
* Magnezone can be deployed to eliminate enemy Celesteela which cannot be 2HKO'd by flamethrower
* Celesteela can take anything Weavile and Mamoswine throw at it and acts as a switch in against ice moves
* Trick room users allows Exeggutor to start attacking immeadiately without initial set up of its own
[STRATEGY COMMENTS]
Other Options
=============
* Wiki Berry: High risk high reward
* Yache Berry: Can be used to withstand Ice Shard but not recomended
* Energy Ball: Higher BP than Giga Drain without health recover and lower than Leaf Storm but does not cause SpA drops
* Z-Trick Room and Hypnosis/Sleep Powder: Instresting set that can suprise opponent, with Z-Trick room increasing Accuracy allowing Hypnosis and Sleep Powder to be near 100% accuracy but leaves Alola Exeguttor with 2 attacking options that will most definitely be walled
Checks and Counters
===================
**Heatran**: Walls special set completely and causes Mixed set to forgo Dragon STAB and leave it vurenable to other common Dragons
**Chansey** Walls special set completely and can force it out, which under Trick Rooom would allow it to do even more harm
**Celesteela** Exeguttor faces a hard time getting a 2HKO from flamethrower while it resists it's main stabs and is immune to Sludge Bomb/EQ coverage.
**Ice Types** Weavile and Mamoswine can revenge kill it even in trick room, and ice type moves are common coverage used by Water, Grass and Electric pokemon
**Priority** While being resistant to Aqua Jet, priorities such as First Impression, Extreme Speed, Shadow Sneak and others can whittle down its health and even revenge kill it
