【CONCEPT】
Raichu absorbs Electric moves with Lightning Rod while Incineroar and Staraptor's Intimidate and Grimmsnarl's Prankster support break down the opposing line
【SYNERGY】
- Raichu: Lightning Rod nullifies Electric moves and boosts its stat, then Volt Tackle strikes back directly
- Incineroar & Staraptor: two separate Intimidate users reliably suppress the opponent's physical attackers
- Grimmsnarl: priority Fake Out and Parting Shot control the pace and enable safe switches regardless of speed
【WATCH OUT】
If both Intimidate users go down, physical pressure control disappears, and against a team with no Electric moves, Raichu's Lightning Rod advantage never comes into play
