Ability and Held Item

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Iron Moth Image
Ability Held Item
Quark Drive Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Booster Energy ImageBooster Energy

Quark Drive is Iron Moth's only Ability, which increases its highest stat by 30% when Electric Terrain is active or when holding a Booster Energy. In this build, Iron Moth's Sp. Atk is boosted by 30%.

Booster Energy is this build's held item to guarantee Iron Moth activates Quark Drive and boosts its Special Attack by 30%.

Moves Breakdown

Build Moves
Fiery Dance Sludge Wave
Energy Ball Dazzling Gleam

Fiery Dance is its best Fire-type STAB move. This move has a 50% chance to boost Iron Moth's Sp. Atk by one stage.

Sludge Wave is its strongest Poison-type STAB move that does not have any drawbacks.

Energy Ball is its main coverage move since it allows Iron Moth to hit Ground, Rock and Water types that it is normally weak to.

Dazzling Gleam is the last move chosen because it has the widest coverage range out of Iron Moth's other attacks.

Best Tera Type: Grass

Pokemon Water Type Icon Pokemon Grass Type Icon Pokemon Electric Type Icon Pokemon Ground Type Icon

Grass is the best Tera Type for Iron Moth since it turns all of its major weaknesses into resistances and it also boosts the damage of Energy Ball.

Alternatively, it could use a Stellar Tera to boost the damage of whatever move it uses, but it would still prefer a defensive Tera like Grass.

Best Grass Type Pokemon

EV Spread and Nature

A full 252 EVs are placed into its Sp. Atk and Speed to allow Iron Moth to hit as hard and fast as possible. The extra 4 EVs are placed into its Defense to help round out its bulk.

A Timid nature is preferred to help Iron Moth outspeed Pokemon that are normally faster than it.

Other Viable Moves

Discharge Another good coverage option that has a chance to paralyze the opposing Pokemon.
Toxic Spikes Allows Iron Moth to also operate as an offensive lead.

Held Item Booster Energy
Moveset ・ Fiery Dance
・ Sludge Wave
・ Bug Buzz
・ Agility

Iron Moth's well-rounded special bulk makes it a good bulky special attacker, with Quark Drive automatically activating thanks to Booster Energy and giving the Paradox Pokemon a significant Sp. Atk boost when switched in.

This build utilizes Fiery Dance to have a chance of passively boosting Iron Moth's Sp. Atk, while Sludge Wave is its secondary STAB that lets it threaten Fairy-types like Gardevoir and Dachsbun.

Bug Buzz is a good coverage move and is a stronger move to hit Wo-Chien, while Agility is a great secondary boosting move that's best used when predicting a switch.

A Stellar Tera Type is mainly used to boost the damage of its STAB moves without having to commit to a single Tera Type.

Other Viable Moves

Discharge Discharge is a better alternative to Bug Buzz as it allows Iron Moth to threaten bulky Water-types.
Flash Cannon A good alternative to Bug Buzz that lets Iron Moth hit Rock-types.

Summary

Pokeball IconImmensely high Special Attack Stat with moderate bulk.
Pokeball IconHas very good Speed if boosted with Choice Scarf or Booster Energy.
Pokeball IconHas a wide movepool with plenty of options to choose from.

Ability and Held Item

As with all Future Paradox Pokemon, Iron Moth has Quark Drive. But even without ways to trigger it, it is still an effective Pokemon on its own.

Booster Energy and a Timid Nature ensures that Iron Moth is always the fastest Pokemon on the field, even outspeeding an unboosted Iron Bundle.

Moves Breakdown

Fiery Dance is a reliable Fire-type STAB Move that also boosts Iron Moth's Special Attack Stat.

Acid Spray is a great move to use alongside a Special Attacker and can usually score important KOs. Because two Pokemon are targeting one Pokemon, this strategy may fail against a well-timed Protect.

Energy Ball is a useful move against Water and Ground-types who want to go up against Iron Moth. Do remember that even though Iron Moth has a powerful tech move in Energy Ball, it is still best to keep it safe from its counters.

Iron Moth has Protect of its own, to keep it safe on turns where it is in danger of getting double targeted.

Best Tera Type

Iron Moth makes use of Tera Grass, as this lets it withstand Ground-type and Water-type Moves with ease. With its massive Special Attack Stat and wide movepool, Iron Moth is a great candidate for Terastallization.

EV Spread and Nature

120 EVs are put into HP to give Iron Moth moderate bulk to go with the 4 EVs in its Special Defense Stat. Only 136 EVs are put into Special Attack so that Booster Energy boosts Iron Moth's Speed instead of its Special Attack

A Timid Nature with 252 Speed EVs allows Iron Moth to outspeed Iron Bundle or even +6 Speed Dondozo and Coalossal.

Other Viable Moves

Dazzling Gleam Dazzling Gleam gives Iron Moth an option to use against Dragon and Fighting-types.
Heat Wave Heat Wave is a powerful STAB Spread option. However, it is not completely accurate.

How to Use Iron Moth Effectively

A Bulky Attacker with Great Dual STAB

Iron Moth's well-rounded special bulk and high Special Attack make it a great bulky attacker with a strong dual Fire/Poison STAB that allows it to threaten very common Grass, Fairy, and Ice-types in competitive play.

Paradox Pokemon Builds for Competitive Battles and Tera Raids

How to Build a Team with Iron Moth

Iron Moth is best used as an offensive attacker due to its high Sp. Atk and great STAB coverage. Pair it with Pokemon that can complement its moveset.

Sample Singles Team

Lead Attacker Offensive Pivot Special Attacker
Vikavolt ImageVikavolt Iron Moth ImageIron Moth Ogerpon (Cornerstone Mask) ImageOgerpon (Cornerstone Mask)

Vikavolt is used as an offensive lead because it has access to moves like Sticky Web and Thunder Wave. Iron Moth's main weakness is that there are a lot of meta Pokemon that outspeed or speed-tie it, so speed control from Vikavolt is greatly appreciated.

Cornerstone Ogerpon is used because it can cover most of Vikavolt and Iron Moth's weaknesses while also being one of the strongest Pokemon in the game.

Sample Doubles Team

Support / Special Attacker Special Attacker
Iron Moth ImageIron Moth Flutter Mane ImageFlutter Mane
Physical Attacker Special Attacker
Dondozo ImageDondozo Tatsugiri ImageTatsugiri

Iron Moth can set up KOs for Flutter Mane using Acid Spray with Flutter Mane working as the primary Special Attacker.

With a strong front end consisting of Flutter Mane and Iron Moth, having Dondozo and Tatsugiri in the back as a win condition may prove valuable as both can be an unbeatable pairing in the latter parts of a match.
