Xerneas @ Choice Scarf

- Thunder Wave / Thunder
- Defog

This stag of life is taking a break from being one of the most threatening sweepers to become a potent revenge killer and support option for teams, checking threats like Marshadow, Yveltal, and boosted Zygarde and providing crucial cleric support for bulkier teams. Moonblast, even without the boost from Geomancy, hits hard, forcing out targets such as Marshadow, Zekrom, and Calyrex-S. Aromatherapy allows Xerneas to be a consistent cleric for bulkier teams, letting teammates like Rest Kyogre wallbreak better. Groudon and Zygarde are phenomenal partners, benefitting from Aromatherapy and Xerneas pressuring opposing Zygarde and Buzzwole; in return, they threaten Steel-types. Thunder Wave cripples common switch-ins such as Necrozma-DM and Ho-Oh as well as fast threats like Calyrex-S and opposing Xerneas. Thunder is another option that allows Xerneas to consistently pressure Kyogre while still threatening paralysis on the aforementioned Pokemon, albeit inconsistently. Defog lets Xerneas be a situational entry hazard remover, although it struggles against common entry hazard setters such as Ferrothorn and Necrozma-DM.

I think you should definitely talk about checking Zygarde somewhere in here, as it's one of the few things faster than +1 Zygarde even when not in complete form and aroma helps against it clicking Toxic on pivots like Yveltal which wanna Foul Play it which is really important given how good zyg is.

2 partners that I think should be mentioned given the only one rn is rest Kyogre are Groudon and Zygarde. Both takes potential status from things like dusk mane they switch in on, and they also appreciate xern pressuring zyg buzz zarude etc. while slowing stuff down w twave. The grounds also pressure the steels pretty hard

Overall p good though, concise and to the point of what it does as a revenge killing cleric. Those qualities should be highlighted most so if you find some changes are straying a bit away from that I'd keep this as the focus.

QC 1/1
