>>58716053>>58716082Zeraora does use both offenses often, but its special attack was mostly used with Grass Knot (almost always KOs or 2HKOs anyways), Hidden Power (lol), Volt Switch (utility), and when it wanted to use Calm Mind sets.
And it’s technically an improvement, but Zeraora should have had 178 Speed (allows you to outspeed Scarf Garchomp) and then distribute the rest and focus more on Atk. Like 88/142/80/112/90/178.
That would be significantly better as it still does effective damage, but you are at a better speed tier too. That was Zeraora’s main niche in Gen 8 since it outsped Dragapult. Now its outspeeding Choice Scarfers that are also pretty fast.
Also the bulk does help. Namely against utility moves like Knock Off, Scald, U-turn, and priority moves.
