Behemoth Blade Attacker |
| #1 | Screech | Screech | Screech | Behemoth Blade |
This OHKO team strategy requires a dedicated team with three Perrserkers to stack Steely Spirit boosts, while also providing Screech support, and a Physically Offensive Zacian to deal as much damage as possible with Behemoth Blade.
At the start of the raid, all three Perrserkers should use Screech to lower Delphox' Def stat by 6 stages.
Once all the Fake Tears animations are finished, Zacian should then use Behemoth Blade, which should deal enough damage to OHKO Delphox.
Even if Delphox has certain ways to negate held items through Magic Room or Magician, Forme changes through items are unaffected, and Zacian should still be able to use Behemoth Blade.
| Behemoth Blade (x3 Steely Spirit, +1 Atk) 14,052 ~ 16,536 (129 ~ 151.7%) |

This OHKO team strategy requires a dedicated team with three Perrserkers to stack Steely Spirit boosts, while also providing Fake Tears support, and a Specially Offensive Gholdengo to deal as much damage as possible with Steel Beam.
While Heatran is the safer option with its resistances and immunity to Delphox' attacks, Gholdengo is easier to obtain, and with a specific EV spread, the risks can be minimized and a safe OHKO can be done.
At the start of the raid, all three Perrserkers should use Fake Tears to lower Delphox' Sp. Def stat by 6 stages.
Once all the Fake Tears animations are finished, Gholdengo should then use Steel Beam, which should deal enough damage to OHKO Delphox.
