[SET COMMENTS]
  • Boasting an excellent defensive typing and good natural bulk, Ferrothorn is a setup attacker that can solo unprepared teams.
  • Despite the low PP count, Gyro Ball is Ferrothorn's most reliable STAB attack, as it also benefits from the Speed drop from Curse. Power Whip is a secondary STAB to hit bulky Water-types, such as Jellicent, that would otherwise wall Ferrothorn. Substitute can block Will-o-Wisp and can make Ferrothorn more difficult to take out. Leech Seed is a more defensive option to punish bulky Water-types that cannot touch Ferrothorn.
  • Bullet on EV spread if it’s not 252/252
  • 1-2 bullets on general usage tips
  • Politoed, and by extension Kingdra, are excellent teammates since they check Heatran, the biggest counter to Ferrothorn.
