And the truly sad thing is that it will likely still be better than Regieleki

Regieleki is legit, it cant go lower than RU with those stats, is fast enough to be Modest and still outspeed the whole meta.

This coverage is atrocious though. It's checked by any ground type, any electric resist.

Like >>45189243 said it has some actual options to hit steel types and it's not completely walled by fairy types in the same way Regieleki gets completely shut down by any ground type or any electric resist at all actually.

Still really, really bad though

This is seriously the best it can fucking do. Wow. That's actually really sad considering that stat distribution is really pretty good. It's fucking BEGGING for choice specs on a Modest set.

Absolutely trash set. Its speed tier is already ridiculous. You're better off running modest specs and using a more reliable electric attack. Also:

Timid specs with electric terrain support. Rising Voltage hits almost 190 base power under those conditions, just make sure all of the ground-types are dead first.

I don't think it's going to be able to run Specs - with how much switching in and out it needs to do because of how much shit walls it it needs to run Boots.

Electro ball caps at 150 and only if what you're hitting has slowbro-tier speed or lower. Agility doesn't help much on a mon so easily checked and that has 80-50-50 bulk to boot. It also has less PP than thunderbolt. A binding band thunder cage set is unironically more reliable than electro ball.

Running mixed coverage kills anything good about its other stats. It needs to run EVs into one of its defense stats so it can at least take hits from something.

I'd argue this is even worse than SFMA. It's all the same flaws except they chose to waste a ton of BST points pumping its HP stat for reason.

Regieleki is running through OU right now with the Electric equivalents of Fisheous Rend worthy damage. Once the Grounds are removed, it could instantly end games.

Regidrago's stats are actually good. 100 base isn't much these days but its ability actually boosts its stat by 1.5x when it uses dragon type moves.
A Modest fully invested Regidrago at level 100 reaches 492 special attack when using dragon type moves. That's higher than a Modest Mewtwo by the way. It also gets a dragon type water spout. You could probably get away with a scarf set just spamming that and breaking walls if Fairy types weren't a thing. But specs draco meteor does just fine. The main problem is that it has no coverage, but his stab would probably hit harder than super effective moves anyways.

Stacks with STAB so it reaches higher damage output than adaptability

read the description again. It boosts its attacking stat, not the move's power. Otherwise it'd just be Adaptability. It's like a mini huge power boost

I don't think the people comparing this thing to Guzzlord understand what it's actually supposed to be doing. They just see "200 HP" and think it plays like Guzzlord. Also posts like this >>45189157 are hilarious

It says "Powers up Electric-type moves." in the in-game description. It follow the exact wording of Steelworker, so I have reason to believe it functions in the same way. Not saying you're wrong, but I don't know where you're getting this stat boost from, and I'd appreciate a source.

Not to mention Drago gets Dragon Dance as well if you don't want to scarf it or make it a mixed attacker.
