Old Gens [SM OU] Magearna

[pannu]

Magearna @ Leftovers
Ability: Soul-Heart
EVs: 248 HP / 28 Def / 232 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 6 Spe
- Volt Switch
- Flash Cannon
- Heart Swap
- Pain Split

Magearna is a great asset to any balance team, as it beats pesky special setup users like offensive Magearna, Reuniclus, Mega Latias, and Clefable, which really grind these teams' gears. After stealing their boosts with Heart Swap, Magearna threatens them back with Flash Cannon. Thanks to its fantastic typing and great bulk, Magearna can also check other dangerous threats like Mega Alakazam and Tapu Lele. Defense investment further lets it survive hard hits from foes like Landorus-T and Mega Medicham. Furthermore, Pain Split keeps it healthy to reliably check these foes long-term. Unlike other defensive Pokemon, Magearna can also generate momentum via Volt Switch, safely pivoting in teammates like Weavile, Greninja, and Heatran. Running 6 Speed IVs guarantees that Magearna is outsped by Clefable and Sassy Celesteela for maximally slow Volt Switches. Fire- and Ground-types can take advantage of it, notably Volcarona, Heatran, and Gliscor, so teammates that can help deal with these like Gastrodon, Mega Latias, Rotom-W, and Skarmory make for great partners.

Magearna is a great asset to any balance team, as it beats pesky special setup users which greatly annoy the teams Magearna finds itself on. It can reliably dealing with foes known to setup on the Special side like opposing offensive Magearna, Reuniclus, Mega Latias, and Clefable by using Heart Swap stealing their boosts for itself and subsequently being able to threaten back with Flash Cannon. Furthermore, it also can keep itself healthy with Pain Split to reliably check these foes in the long term. However, beating set-up sweepers is not the only thing Magearna can do, as thanks to its fantastic typing and great bulk it can also check dangerous metagame threats like Mega Alakazam Mega Tyranitar, Weavile, and Tapu Lele. Furthermore, it can also keep itself healthy with Pain Split to reliably check these foes in the long term. Thanks to Volt Switch, its not a total momentum drain, unlike other Pokemon which deal with set-up sweepers, like Clefable, Toxapex, or Gastrodon. Unlike other defensive Pokemon, Magearna can also generate momentum via Volt Switch, and running 6 Speed IVs guarantees that Magearna is outsped by out slows Clefable and Sassy Celesteela for as slow as possible Volt Switches to safely pivot in teammates like Mega Mawile, Weavile, Greninja, or Heatran. Mention that the Defense investment lets it live offensive Landorus' Earthquake and Mega Medicham's High Jump Kick. Also mention some of Magearna's downfalls, like its big vulnerablilty to being taken advantage of by fire and ground types and what it can do to circumvent them in terms of teammates.

Think its worth clarifying the interactions here since it reads as if they solely abuse Clefable and Celesteela as mentioned. It is, however, vulnerable to can also be taken advantage of by Fire- and Ground-types, notably Volcarona, Heatran, and Gliscor Heatran, Gliscor, and Mega Charizard-Y, so teammates that can help deal with these like Gastrodon, Mega Latias, Rotom-W, and Skarmory Gastrodon, Skarmory, and Mega Latias make for great teammates. Order is important for flow.

if you have space I'd try to incorporate some more colorful words to lighten it up a little but other than that 1/1

hmu if its still too over the word limit, don't think it should be too bad tho
