Bulk Up + Special Move Lucario
Lucario @ Leftovers
Ability: Justified
Tera Type: Normal
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Bulk Up
- Drain Punch
- Extreme Speed
- Psychic/Shadow Ball
Decided to change this up a bit, but this is a set I've being loving on Lucario. Bulk Up Lucario is in my eyes a very dangerous mon. It can leverage its good enough speed and typing to sweep endgames by switching into many common attacks and winning the game from their. However, one of its weaknesses is that it can sometimes struggle with some physically defensive mons such as Ghost types and Slowbro (for reference, I was using this in RU and amoonguss was being amoonguss and annoying the hell out of me). This set takes advantage of these physical mons by destroying them with a coverage move. Bulk up is of course the setup move of choice to make sure that lucario can take many hits (which also offsets the hasty nature defense decrease) while drain punch keeps lucario healthy alongside leftovers so it can attempt to sweep multiple times a game. Extreme speed with tera normal allows it to clean up games against faster teams. Psychic can deal with poison types such as dragalge by 3hit ko'ing them at worst, while shadow ball can deal with ghost types such as basculegion and chandelure.
