晶光花 怎麼配招

Mortal Spin is used to remove opposing entry hazards such as Ribombee's Sticky Web and cripple opposing bulky Pokemon such as Kyogre and various Arceus formes. Mud Shot provides extremely valuable disruption, allowing Glimmora to outspeed opposing leads such as Deoxys-A, Miraidon, and Zacian-C after a Speed drop and get up hazards. Mud Shot also prevents Dragon Dance Necrozma-DM from using Glimmora as setup fodder. 172 Defense EVs allow Glimmora to always live a five-hit Scale Shot from Jolly Koraidon and retaliate with a super effective Dazzling Gleam. Memento can be used instead to let Glimmora sacrifice itself to give its team valuable offensive momentum. Tera Ghost prevents Glimmora's entry hazards from being removed by Rapid Spin but is almost never used due to its status as a suicide lead. Glimmora is limited in usage to hyper offense teams, where its ability to set hazards and provide diruption is unmatched. It is generally paired with powerful wallbreakers such as Choice Scarf Koraidon, Zacian-C, and Miraidon, as well as setup sweepers such as Necrozma-DM, Kyurem-B, Scale Shot Koraidon, Kingambit, Miraidon, and Extreme Killer Arceus.

Meteor Beam's power against most neutral targets is devastating. The Special Attack boost allows Glimmora to output offensive pressure with Sludge Bomb even after Power Herb is consumed. Earth Power is used as coverage for the Steel-types that resist Glimmora's STAB combination. Energy Ball is also an option to utilize the Tera Grass STAB boost and to hit Pokemon that resist Meteor Beam such as Urshifu-R but makes it so that Steel-types resist all of Glimmora's attacks. The Special Attack investment along with the Modest nature is necessary to pick up a OHKO on Landorus, Walking Wake, and Terastillized Urshifu-R with Meteor Beam. The OHKO on Landorus and Urshifu turns the match up against hyper offensive teams completely on its head, especially with speed control support from Tornadus. The Defense investment is enough to guarantee surviving Rillaboom's Wood Hammer and a favourable roll of taking Kingambit's Iron Head. The Special Defensive investment lets it live Gholdengo's Make It Rain and Latias's Mist Ball. The rest of the EVs are invested into Speed, which allows Glimmora to outspeed Choice Scarf Landorus-T when in Tailwind. Tera Grass has better synergy with Glimmora's original typing and provides an immunity to spore, but gives Glimmora weakness to common threats such as Chien-Pao. Tera Water, defensively, is a stronger neutral type into the metagame, but has fewer relevant resistances to common threats.

Both Earth Power and Energy Ball are fine options, but Energy Ball can do more damage against neutral targets if Glimmora Terastallizes into a Grass type. Mortal Spin is used as the final move for a more consistent method to spread poison than Toxic Debris. The Assault Vest gives Glimmora much more longevity, as it allows it to comfortably tank special attacks while still dissuading physical attackers with the threat of Toxic Spikes. On teams where being able to spread poison is important, Assault Vest is a good option. The special bulk allows Glimmora to live many strong super effective attacks, such as Choice Specs Gholdengo's Make It Rain; it also makes Choice Specs Flutter Mane's Shadow Ball a 3HKO. Glimmora still lives a Rillaboom Wood Hammer with the HP investment.

Glimmora is a decent Choice Scarf user for Rock teams due to its high Special Attack and Speed to take on threats like Ogerpon-W, Hisuian Lilligant, and non-Choice Scarf Urshifu-R. Earth Power threatens Steel- and Poison-types like Gholdengo, non-Air Balloon Heatran, Iron Moth, and Sneasler. Sludge Wave is a strong STAB move that can take on Fairy- and Grass-types such as Hisuian Lilligant, Ogerpon-W, Ogerpon-H, and non-Choice Scarf Iron Valiant. Dazzling Gleam takes out Dark-, Dragon-, and Fighting-types like Sableye, Hydreigon, and Kommo-o. Energy Ball allows Glimmora to deal with Water- and Ground-types like Quagsire and non-Choice Scarf Greninja and Great Tusk. Mortal Spin can be run over Energy Ball to help remove entry hazards and poison foes in the process. Power Gem can be run instead to deal with Weavile, Volcarona, and Choice Scarf Kleavor. Tyranitar provides sand and a Psychic immunity while also taking on special attackers for Glimmora such as Spectrier, Slowking, and Hisuian Zoroark. Thanks to the sand Tyranitar provides, Glimmora can survive a Choice Specs Draco Meteor from Dragapult due to the Special Defense boost and 2HKO it with Dazzling Gleam. In return, Glimmora also takes out Hisuian Samurott, Quagsire, and Ogerpon-W for Tyranitar. Ogerpon-C can compensate for Glimmora's Ground weakness, and, after setup, it can eliminate Ursaluna, Dragonite, and Landorus. Glimmora aids Ogerpon-C by handling threats such as Kleavor when running Power Gem, Iron Valiant, and Hisuian Lilligant. Glimmora can further aid Ogerpon-C with Mortal Spin by removing entry hazards to help prevent Ogerpon-C's Sturdy from breaking. Choice Band Hisuian Arcanine is a strong wallbreaker that can deal with Corviknight, Clodsire, and Toxapex. Coalossal can serve as entry hazard control to allow Glimmora to drop Mortal Spin; it can additionally support the team with Spikes, facilitating Glimmora's cleaning. Coalossal also deals with Scizor, Bisharp, Weavile, and Corviknight. Glimmora returns the favor by threatening Clodsire and Toxapex, which can threaten Coalossal. Lead Kleavor can set up Stealth Rock and potentially break opposing Ceruledge's Focus Sash. In exchange, Glimmora eliminates physical walls like Quagsire and non-Air Balloon Heatran for Kleavor. Iron Defense Garganacl is a stallbreaker that can force progress with Salt Cure in matchups against defensive Pokemon like Toxapex, Hisuian Goodra, and Galarian Slowking. Glimmora dispatches Choice Band Mamoswine after Stealth Rock, entry hazard chip and Urshifu-R, which can threaten Garganacl. Alolan Golem can trap and eliminate Steel-types like Scizor and Corviknight. Diancie can set up Stealth Rock while also OHKOing Weavile with Body Press and Kommo-o with Moonblast if Glimmora is not running Dazzling Gleam.

Choice Scarf allows Glimmora to become a potent offensive threat on Poison teams, being able to outspeed several key targets like Iron Valiant, Ogerpon-H, and Choice Specs Greninja and swiftly remove them. Power Gem picks off the threatening Flying- and Fire-types of the tier including Articuno, Ceruledge, and Cinderace. Sludge Wave is Glimmora's strongest move and can KO threats like the Ogerpon formes, Iron Valiant, and Alolan Ninetales. Earth Power hits the Steel-types that would effortlessly switch into Glimmora's STAB moves such as non-Air Balloon Heatran, Gholdengo, and Archaludon. Finally, Energy Ball threatens Choice Specs Greninja and Ground-types like Mamoswine and Ursaluna. Alternatively, Stealth Rock can be used to help further pressure types like Fire and Ice. Choice Scarf Glimmora greatly enjoys Parting Shot Pecharunt, which can be used to pivot it onto the field safely along with helping against physical attackers that can check Glimmora such as Scizor, Choice Scarf Iron Boulder, and Assault Vest Iron Hands. Galarian Slowking can similarly help get Glimmora onto the field with Chilly Reception and can use Future Sight to help pressure would-be switch-ins like Clodsire and Assault Vest Gallade. Sneasler is capable of breaking special walls like Ting-Lu, Blissey, and Hisuian Goodra for Glimmora with Close Combat, and its U-turn can bring Glimmora in on threats Glimmora can handle like Archaludon and Zapdos. Amoonguss can help against Water-types like Swift Swim Barraskewda and Choice Scarf Urshifu-R, which outspeed and remove Glimmora, while also being able to use Spore to put opposing threats to sleep and get Glimmora in safely. Galarian Weezing can come in against faster and bulkier Ground- and Dark-types Glimmora cannot deal with like Choice Scarf Great Tusk, Clodsire, and Choice Scarf Roaring Moon while helping break through Dark- and Dragon-types such as Ting-Lu and Garchomp with Strange Steam. Alolan Muk can come in on faster special attackers like Flutter Mane, Spectrier, and Choice Scarf Greninja for Glimmora and threaten Knock Off to remove their Choice Scarf; Knock Off also deals with Gholdengo's Air Balloon, allowing Glimmora to check it with Earth Power. Iron Moth can serve as an offensive complement to Glimmora, being able to deal with the Steel-types Glimmora struggles against such as Corviknight and Gholdengo while appreciating Glimmora's Power Gem handling Ceruledge and Ninetales.

Glimmora provides useful utility for Poison teams thanks to its unique set of tools in entry hazard support and Corrosion Toxic, which is capable of putting walls such as Toxapex and Corviknight on a timer. Power Gem is used to threaten problematic Flying- and Fire-types like Articuno, Zapdos, Torkoal, and Iron Moth. Earth Power allows Glimmora to deal solid damage to Steel-types like Gholdengo and Heatran after their Air Balloon is popped. Alternatively, Mortal Spin can be run to spread poison onto Hatterene, which cannot be poisoned otherwise thanks to Magic Bounce, and remove entry hazards. Due to Glimmora's immense weakness to Ground- and Water-type attacks, Amoonguss is a valuable partner, taking on dangerous threats such as Great Tusk, Swampert, and Urshifu-R with ease. Toxapex can similarly assist against Water-types like Barraskewda and Keldeo, Steel-types like Scizor and Corviknight, and Fighting-types like Zamazenta and Sneasler. Toxapex can also run Toxic Spikes to assist Glimmora with hazard stacking. Galarian Weezing provides a solid Ground immunity thanks to Levitate, allowing it to come in on threats like Clodsire, Garchomp, and Ting-Lu, and it provides solid hazard removal with Defog. Overqwil pairs well with Glimmora, providing both Spikes and Toxic Spikes, which allows it to complete the hazard stacking-core while also taking on foes like Iron Boulder, Gallade, and Dragapult thanks to Intimidate. Alolan Muk provides Knock Off support to remove Heavy-Duty Boots from foes such as Dragonite, Iron Moth, and Volcarona, increasing the threat of Glimmora's Stealth Rock; it can also deal with Psychic- and Ghost-type threats like Espathra, Hatterene, and Flutter Mane. Galarian Slowking's Future Sight can lure in special walls such as Alolan Muk and Hisuian Goodra, which Glimmora can take advantage of to spread Toxic. Galarian Slowking can also check threats like Heatran and Terapagos, which prove problematic for Glimmora. Okidogi and Sneasler greatly appreciate Glimmora's ability to put physical walls like Pecharunt, Toxapex, and Sableye on timers with Toxic, while Glimmora appreciates their ability to check troublesome Steel-types like Kingambit, Hisuian Goodra, and Empoleon.

Glimmora's ability, Toxic Debris, discourages physical attackers from attacking it with physical moves. Setting up Toxic Spikes is invaluable against bulky teams, crippling common threats like Ting-Lu, Iron Hands, and Diancie. Stealth Rock allows Glimmora to break Tornadus's and Chien-Pao's Focus Sash and punishes switches; the cumulated chip damage from both Stealth Rock and Toxic Spikes is not to be underestimated, especially against snow teams and Pokemon weak to Stealth Rock like Incineroar without Heavy-Duty Boots and Ogerpon-H. Glimmora setting Toxic Spikes and Stealth Rock makes it the best partner for Chien-Pao + Dragonite teams, putting a lot of Pokemon in range of Extreme Speed and weakening Iron Hands, Diancie, and Incineroar, which are difficult for the core to remove. Ting-Lu is another great Pokemon to use in combination with Glimmora, as its great bulk and access to Whirlwind make the most out of the entry hazards set by Glimmora. Roaring Moon is a great partner for Glimmora, threatening Gholdengo and setting Tailwind, which allows Glimmora to outspeed Ogerpon formes and Gholdengo. Tornadus is another great partner for the same reason. Earth Power OHKOes opposing Glimmora, chips Iron Hands and Incineroar, and 2HKOes Gholdengo, the latter of which is the main way to remove Glimmora without triggering Toxic Debris and is a great threat to Chien-Pao + Dragonite teams. Sludge Bomb greatly threatens Grass-types, notably OHKOing Ogerpon-W after Stealth Rock damage and 2HKOing Assault Vest Rillaboom, which would otherwise pressure Ting-Lu and Landorus. Power Gem is an alternative to Sludge Bomb that allows Glimmora to hit Tornadus harder and deal damage to Landorus. Spiky Shield allows for additional chip damage and helps to preserve Focus Sash against Fake Out. Mortal Spin removes entry hazards and can be useful to poison Pokemon when Toxic Spikes are not set yet. Focus Sash allows Glimmora to always take a hit, making sure it can set Stealth Rock or threaten Pokemon like Gholdengo and Ogerpon-W. Glimmora's Timid nature makes sure that it is faster than maximum Speed Gholdengo and Speed ties against opposing Glimmora. Poison-types like opposing Glimmora, Okidogi, and Amoonguss can easily remove Toxic Spikes by entering the field, so Earth Power from Landorus and Bleakwind Storm from Tornadus can help remove those Pokemon before Glimmora sets Toxic Spikes. Tera Grass flips Glimmora’s Ground and Water weaknesses into resistances, letting it survive Landorus’s Earth Power and Ogerpon-W’s Ivy Cudgel while also taking neutral damage from Gholdengo’s Make It Rain. It additionally enables Glimmora to bypass Rage Powder from Sinistcha. Tera Flying, while giving Glimmora less resistances, lets it gain a Ground immunity, which allows it to preserve the Focus Sash against Landorus's Ground-type attacks and helps stall Trick Room turns against Ursaluna.

Meteor Beam is one of the most powerful single-turn attacks in the tier when used in conjunction with Power Herb to remove the charge turn and immediately get a +1 Special Attack increase. Sludge Bomb is a more reliable STAB attack that threatens Rillaboom, Ogerpon-W, and Ogerpon-H. Earth Power provides solid coverage that hits Steel-types like Kingambit and Gholdengo, which its STAB moves fail to hit effectively. Spiky Shield serves as an enhanced Protect that keeps Glimmora safe from damage while damaging foes that target it with contact moves. Glimmora's ability, Toxic Debris, serves as a way of punishing the foe for landing physical attacks on Glimmora by setting a layer of Toxic Spikes on their side. Both Toxic Debris and Spiky Shield discourage foes from targeting Glimmora with physical moves, as the chip damage from either of them can break Focus Sash and allow Glimmora and its teammates to nab KOs that would be missed otherwise. Tera Grass turns Glimmora's Ground and Water weaknesses into resistances while also giving it Rage Powder and Spore immunity. Tera Flying can be used instead to provide Glimmora with a full Ground-type immunity. While there may be some instances where it is better to be cautious in using Meteor Beam, as it can only be used once reliably, Glimmora generally wants to use it as soon as possible to get the Special Attack boost and allow for more powerful attacks on subsequent turns. Prankster Tailwind users like Tornadus and Whimsicott are great teammates for providing immediate speed control to make up for Glimmora's mediocre Speed. Pokemon that outspeed and OHKO Landorus before it can OHKO Glimmora like Ogerpon-W and Chien-Pao are also greatly appreciated partners. Chi-Yu also works well alongside Glimmora, boosting its damage output with Beads of Ruin and using Fire-type moves to hit Steel-types hard.

Glimmora functions as a niche hyper offense lead, being able to utilize its unique ability in Toxic Debris as well as its access to Stealth Rock to consistently stack entry hazards to aid its teammates in wallbreaking. It also has access to Mortal Spin, allowing it to remove hazards from foes such as Great Tusk and Landorus-T. Power Gem is used in order to hit Flying-types such as Moltres and Zapdos, which could otherwise remove Glimmora's hazards with Defog. Earth Power is used in order to hit Steel-types such as Heatran, Kingambit, and Gholdengo, all of which would use Glimmora as setup fodder. Focus Sash is used most of the time in order to set up multiple layers of Toxic Spikes and almost always guarantees Stealth Rock to be set. Red Card, meanwhile, can be used in order to punish anything attacking Glimmora and to rack up more hazard chip damage while also potentially getting a poison off on foes such as Mega Tyranitar and Ting-Lu. Glimmora fits solely on hyper offense teams, where its ability to stack Toxic Spikes and Stealth Rock is appreciated by its teammates. Dark-types such as Kingambit and Weavile enjoy the poison damage whittling down Fighting-types such as Great Tusk, Urshifu-R, and Mega Lopunny, allowing them to clean through opposing teams more easily. Raging Bolt and Tornadus-T also appreciate Glimmora's Toxic Spikes, which help wear down Ting-Lu , letting them overwhelm it more easily. Gholdengo is appreciated in order to block Rapid Spin from Great Tusk and Terapagos as well as Defog from Tornadus-T and Zapdos. Glimmora struggles with opposing leads such as Iron Treads and Landorus-T, which can effectively set and deny entry hazards against Glimmora, meaning that Flying-types such as Dragonite and the aforementioned Tornadus-T are appreciated. Glimmora also struggles with Poison-types, notably Galarian Slowking and Toxapex, due to their ability to remove Toxic Spikes, so Ground-types that threaten them such as Landorus-T and Garchomp function as good teammates. Glimmora has difficulty with faster foes that can break its Focus Sash such as Urshifu-R and Tachyon Cutter Iron Crown, meaning teammates that help against them such as Dragonite and Raging Bolt are appreciated. Glimmora has trouble breaking through Ferrothorn, who which can use it as fodder to set Spikes up on, meaning Fire-types such as Volcarona are appreciated. In return, Volcarona appreciates Glimmora's hazards chipping down would be switch-ins such as Heatran and Raging Bolt.

Spikes is Glimmora's most reliable entry hazard, chipping Koraidon, Zacian-C, Ting-Lu, and various Arceus formes. Alternatively, Stealth Rock hits targets like Landorus-T and Giratina-O, yet many Pokemon weak to Stealth Rock run Heavy-Duty Boots, so Spikes is the superior option the majority of the time. Memento allows Glimmora to disallow many sweepers like Calm Mind Tera Poison Arceus-Fairy, Arceus-Ground, and Covert Cloak Dragon Dance Necrozma-DM from setting up, while Dazzling Gleam discourages Swords Dance Koraidon from setting up. Mud Shot stops setup attempts from powerful sweepers like Nasty Plot Calyrex-S and Zacian-C, letting Glimmora's teammates safely enter the field. Mortal Spin removes hazards from Glimmora's side, in particular Ribombee's Sticky Web, making it an effective counterlead against Sticky Web teams. In addition, Mortal Spin poisons frequent targets like Ting-Lu, various Arceus formes, and Ho-Oh, putting them on a timer and making a potential sweep far easier. Glimmora's EV spread allows it to survive five Scale Shot hits from Jolly Koraidon and four Scale Shot hits from Adamant Koraidon. Tera Ghost disallows Rapid Spin users like Iron Treads from clearing hazards, while Tera Steel stops opposing Glimmora from using Mortal Spin. Tera Flying offers Glimmora immunity to Ground-type moves, in particular opposing Glimmora's Mud Shot. Due to Glimmora being a suicide lead exclusively used on hyper offense teams, potent sweepers like Arceus, Scale Shot Koraidon, and Dragon Dance Arceus-Ground appreciate the entry hazards that Glimmora sets, which wear down their main checks in defensive Arceus formes. Furthermore, Calyrex-S also works very well with Glimmora, as one of its main checks in Ting-Lu does not usually hold Heavy-Duty Boots, making Ting-Lu vulnerable to Glimmora's hazards. Glimmora is also frequently used on Grimmsnarl dual screens teams, where Glimmora discourages Ribombee leads while providing valuable hazards.

Having the ability to set all entry hazards without becoming passive thanks to Toxic Debris and to cripple a good portion of its checks and remove hazards with Mortal Spin, Glimmora is a potent hazard setter for hyper offense teams. Power Gem allows Glimmora to super effectively hit common Defoggers in Ho-Oh and Yveltal, applying pressure to keep entry hazards on the field. Mortal Spin gives Glimmora a chance to remove entry hazards from other suicide leads such as Shuckle, Mega Diancie, and opposing Glimmora, and it cripples foes such as support Arceus formes without Refresh, Zygarde, and Primal Groudon. Mud Shot hinders foes that try to set up on it such as Primal Groudon, Necrozma-DM, and Zacian-C; additionally, it eases the matchup against Eternatus by causing it to become easier to revenge kill, punishing it switching in to remove Toxic Spikes. With it, Glimmora can outspeed opposing Glimmora and Mega Diancie and potentially finish them off with Mortal Spin to prevent any hazards from staying on its side of the field, but this limits its ability to set entry hazards out of a lack of move slots. The given EV spread avoids after Stealth Rock a OHKO from Choice Band Tera Flying Rayquaza's Dragon Ascent, and +1 Zacian-C's Close Combat while also outspeeding -1 Zacian-C, offensively also ensuring a OHKO on specially defensive Yveltal with Power Gem after Stealth Rock. It's to be noted that this spread can't outspeed Pheromosa after a Speed drop from Mud Shot. An alternate spread of 32 Def / 236 SpA / 244 Spe fixes this, now avoiding a 2HKO from Ferrothorn's Power Whip and ensuring a 2HKO on other Glimmora with Power Gem. Tera Steel prevents opposing Glimmora from removing entry hazards with Mortal Spin; Glimmora, however, shouldn't usually Terastallize, as other Pokemon it's partnered with generally make better use of Terastallizing. If the opposing team has a Poison-type like Glimmora or Eternatus, setting Toxic Spikes shouldn't be a priority, as they will get quickly removed as soon they enter the field, thus making it desirable to focus on setting Stealth Rock or Spikes. Similarly, as Glimmora can remove Toxic Spikes by switching in as long it survives entry hazards, it can still become useful mid-game after getting worn down in such matchups. Against Trick Room teams, Glimmora should be kept mid-game, as it can't set hazards on their usual lead in Hatterene due to its Magic Bounce ability, especially as Toxic Spikes hinder the longevity of such teams, and can prove useful to stall out Trick Room turns by being sacked. Against stall teams, setting Toxic Spikes and using Mortal Spin should be priorities to hinder the longevity of such teams, especially as Glimmora can do this multiple times across the match out of not taking damage as quickly as in other matchups. Wallbreakers such as Zacian-C, Double Dance Primal Groudon, and Necrozma-DM appreciate the entry hazards set by Glimmora to ensure more KOs, they also act as counterplay to Eternatus to limit its capability to come in to remove Toxic Spikes with offensive pressure.

This is the sample set before we work on new analyses. This will be updated as the metagame continues to develop. Stay tuned!

With a solid early-game Speed tier, utility, high Special Attack, and decent coverage options, Glimmora can set the tone of a battle with its entry hazard setting and removing options. Earth Power: Earth Power ensures that Glimmora is not walled by common Steel-types such as Gholdengo and Archaludon. Mortal Spin: If you're using Stealth Rock-weak teammates like Dragonite and Volcarona, clearing the hazards with Mortal Spin can be quite useful, though it's not required for this set to function. Sludge Wave versus Energy Ball: Sludge Wave deals plenty of damage to Primarina, while Energy Ball deals more damage to Ursaluna-B and pairs well with Tera Grass. Toxic Spikes Partners: While Toxic Debris doesn't mean Toxic Spikes will be set up, it's still good to consider running a teammate with it in mind. Defensive Dragonite sets, Stamina Archaludon, Annihilape, and Gliscor are good examples to consider. Tera Types Tera Dependency - Low: While Glimmora can use Terastallization to improve match-ups against foes like Ursaluna-B and Primarina, other teammates will usually want the Terastallization option more. Grass: A Grass Tera type is the best option, letting Glimmora survive attacks from common Ground-type Pokemon such as Ursaluna-B and Garchomp, in addition to nullifying Breloom's Spore. Flying: Tera Flying vastly improves Glimmora's matchup against Ground-types with a potential to retain Focus Sash, though this doesn't help Glimmora as much offensively as Tera Grass. Items Focus Sash: This is the most reliable item for setting up Stealth Rock. Air Balloon: With Air Balloon, Glimmora vastly improves its matchup against Ground-type leads such as Garchomp.

With Power Herb and Meteor Beam combined, Glimmora gains a huge amount of power compared to its other sets, making its softer checks such as Assault Vest Ursaluna-B and Assault Vest Kingambit far less reliable. This set is also less reliant on leading, though Toxic Debris still makes it a natural at this role. Earth Power: Coverage against Steel-types such as Gholdengo, Archaludon, and Kingambit is required for Glimmora to potentially sweep. Energy Ball: Energy Ball is Glimmora's most damaging attack against Ursaluna-B, and it pairs greatly with Tera Grass. Sludge Wave versus Dazzling Gleam: While Poison coverage may not seem particularly useful, it deals more damage to Primarina than Energy Ball, potentially preventing a revenge kill. Dazzling Gleam on the other hand, knocks out Hydreigon and deals serious damage to Garchomp. Tera Types Tera Dependency - High: Since Meteor Beam only has one shot of boosting Special Attack without a charge-up turn, Terastallization is often key to prevent Glimmora's vulnerability to Ground-type attacks from ruining its shot at sweeping. Grass: Tera Grass stands out as the best option, boosting Energy Ball to the point where even some Assault Vest Ursaluna-B risk getting OHKOed after a boost while twisting the Ground-type weakness into a resistance. As a bonus, this also stops Breloom's Spore from derailing a potential sweep. Flying: Tera Flying's Ground-type immunity is worth considering, and it also grants the bonus of not worrying about Toxic Spikes. However, it provides far less offensive benefit than Tera Grass. Fairy: Tera Fairy is mainly useful for stopping Scale Shot users like Dragonite and Garchomp from setting up a sweep and revenge kill on Glimmora in one turn as well as punishing Choice-locked Dragon-types such as Choice Band Dragonite and Choice Specs Hydreigon. However, retaining the Steel-type weakness is a big problem against Gholdengo and Scizor.

Wearing an Assault Vest takes advantage of most opponents aiming to avoid Toxic Debris's activation, giving this set good luring potential against revenge killers like Gholdengo. Earth Power: Hitting Gholdengo and Archaludon super effectively is essential for Glimmora to truly take advantage of Assault Vest and Terastallization. Energy Ball: Ursaluna-B is a high-value target for this set, making Energy Ball the best coverage move for the job. Mortal Spin versus Sludge Wave: Mortal Spin is another unique selling point, giving Glimmora far more support potential than most Assault Vest tanks. Sludge Wave is still worth considering for the extra damage done to Primarina and common Tera Fairy Pokemon such as Archaludon and Garchomp. Dazzling Gleam: Dazzling Gleam is a reasonable option for OHKOing Hydreigon and dealing huge damage to Garchomp. EV Spread: The given EV spread ensures that maximum HP Ursaluna-B is OHKOed by Tera Grass Energy Ball, while Glimmora will survive Tera Normal Ursaring-B's Silk Scarf-boosted Blood Moon. The Speed EVs let Glimmora outspeed Jolly Ursaluna and Jolly Kingambit, both rare but major threats to it. Tera Types Tera Dependecy - High: Glimmora's awkward defensive typing means Terastallization is often key for surprising common revenge killers like Gholdengo and Ursaluna-B. Grass: Tera Grass is a powerful defensive and offensive option, letting Glimmora tank against foes like Ursaluna-B, Gholdengo, and Primarina while boosting Energy Ball's power. Ground: Tera Ground isn't as amazing as Tera Grass defensively due to retaining the Water-type weakness, but it ensures that Earth Power will now OHKO offensive Gholdengo and deal massive damage to defensive Archaludon.

With its good utility, ability, and coverage, Glimmora is one of the best supportive Pokemon in Regulation J. Mortal Spin: Mortal Spin provides entry hazard removal and also spreads poison, chipping down bulky Pokemon like Arceus-Fairy and Ho-Oh. Power Gem: Power Gem hits Pokemon such as Chien-Pao and the aforementioned Ho-Oh. Mud Shot versus Endure: Mud Shot is a solid option to tickle Steel-types like Archaludon while crucially lowering foes' Speed. Endure ensures that Glimmora survives a move such as Earthquake from Landorus-T, allowing it to get another layer of Toxic Spikes down before getting KOed. Stealth Rock: Stealth Rock gives Glimmora even more utility by applying pressure to Pokemon such as Dragonite. Other Options Toxic Spikes: Toxic Spikes is nice for bulkier teams, namely Lugia teams, as they depend more on the passive chip damage to break through opposing walls. Choosing this does give up the invaluable entry hazard control option in Mortal Spin, however. Sludge Wave: Sludge Wave is a very strong STAB option for Glimmora, hitting foes like Ogerpon-W and Rillaboom. Using Sludge Wave, however, means dropping valuable utility in Stealth Rock or dropping Power Gem, which hits far more important targets such as Ho-Oh harder than Sludge Wave can. Energy Ball: Energy Ball is a great coverage option for Glimmora, annoying Pokemon like Ting-Lu and Dondozo more than poison can. This does, however, come at the cost of dropping an important utility option or STAB move. Items Red Card: Red Card forces foes to take extra entry hazard damage and potentially shuts down setup sweepers if Glimmora survives a hit. Air Balloon: Glimmora's severe Ground-type weakness gets patched up by Air Balloon, letting it set up in front of Ground-types along the lines of Landorus-T and Ting-Lu. Tera Types Tera Dependency - Low: Being a supportive Pokemon, Glimmora typically doesn't need to Terastallize despite its pretty bad defensive typing; Terastallization would be better spent on a more offensive ally. Grass: Tera Grass provides Glimmora with Ground- and Water-type resistances, notably letting it take hits from the likes of Ursaluna-B and Kyogre, while also granting it a Electric-type resistance for pesky Miraidon. Fairy: Tera Fairy allows Glimmora to come in on Koraidon's Scale Shot, preventing it from running away with the game after Scale Shot's boosts. EV Spreads 244 HP / 236 Def / 28 SpD with Bold: This is the recommended EV spread, letting Glimmora avoid a 2HKO from Adamant Chien-Pao's Icicle Crash. 244 HP / 76 Def / 188 SpD with Bold: This more specially defensive spread lets Glimmora avoid a 2HKO from Choice Specs Tera Fairy Timid Flutter Mane's Moonblast and generally avoid a 2HKO from Jolly Chien-Pao's Icicle Crash.
