>>34494971
OP here, most of the Pokes I like are slow and I don't want to rely on Trick Room.

Also, any idea on how Instruct works on Slaking's Truant turn? Will he use the move from the previous turn?

Why is Lurantis so shit. I legitimately feel bad for it. It's design is so pretty.

Lurantis is nothing compared to Z-Happy Hour Malamar.

Stat ups from Z-moves aren’t affected by Contrary.

I'm having some fun with this set, pair it with a Sticky Web setter and it might work.

Lurantis has base 45 speed, even with Sticky Web I don't think it's going to be outspeeding shit (especially if you don't invest in it). IMO you might as well just run Brave nature on it and Trick Room or something. In b4
>Trick Room
Hell, even if you don't I think it's actually more useful for it to be Brave in case your opponent runs Trick Room.

battle spot doubles, brave nature, min speed put it on a trick room team with an Oranguru.

Torkoal, Lilligant, Oranguru, Lurantis, Lando-T, and something else. Make it a Sun/TR team. Even if Trick Room isn't up you can have Lurantis go first by having Lilligant use After You on it, if the sun is out Lilligant is practically guaranteed to go first.

This is valid only if someone's talking about the species in general. If, say, anon's Lurantis is female, what do you do then? still countering a retard?

If I were to make a Sun / TR Team, would Solar Blade be too situational?

I am not a big fan of trick room but that is your obvious choice. If you know any other strategies let me know since I like lurantis a lot.
The short answer yes. Not pokemon to make waves but Superpower give you a great instant buff and synthesis means you have a solid method of recovery. I have not tested the set yet myself but contrary boosts for lurantis in lower tiers seems like it might be more spammable than serperior in higher tiers due to better attack stats. You can also got all out attack instead and use assault vest and leech life for recovery rather than synthesis or I guess you can even try giga drain if you feel like gambling with bad odds. That's all going with my idea that you should really just focus on attack and bulk. Maybe even go for impish or careful over adamant since 105 attack with super power already gives plant bug waifu a lot to work with. Swapping that for brave or a decent anti speed nature if you are aiming to trick room of course. It all depends on if you are playing in singles or doubles and what rule set you use. Good luck.

The move is fine on a Sun team. Sad that its the only team where the move works but on a sunny team its your best stab.

It is workable in doubles.
