| Soul-Heart |
|
|
Magearna's Soul-Heart Ability gives it a Special Attack boost whenever a teammate faints. This gives it an offensive edge the longer a match goes on, with less teammates on board.
Life Orb increases Magearna's offensive potential at the cost of losing some HP.
| Flash Cannon | Fleur Cannon |
| Trick Room | Protect |
Flash Cannon is its main STAB Move that is reliable and can be used repeatedly. Fleur Cannon is a way more powerful Fairy-type Move that reduces Magearna's Special Attack by one stage after each successful use.
Trick Room can reverse the turn order and allow slower Pokemon to attack earlier.
Protect lets you keep Magearna safe on turns where it could get flinched by Fake Out.
| Grass Tera Type Matchup | ||
|---|---|---|
| Weak to: | ||
| (2x) | ||
| Damaged Normally By: |
(1x) | |
| Resists: | (0.5x) | |
Grass is the best Tera Type for this build because Terastallizing into Grass can protect Magearna from getting put to sleep by Amoonguss's Spore. Tera Grass also gives Magearna an immunity to the effects of Rage Powder, which is valuable for a build that only has single-target Attacks.
A Quiet Nature and a full 252 EV allocation to Special Attack maximizes Magearna's damage output.
252 EVs are put into its HP to maximize Magearna's bulk. The remaining 4 EVs are put into Defense, but can also be redistributed to Special Defense to give Magearna a point of extra tankiness on the Special Defense end.
| Ice Beam | Ice Beam gives Magearna an option against Grass-types, if in case your team needs an extra option against them. |
|---|
Magearna shines when a teammate gets knocked out, with Soul-Heart giving it a Special Attack buff whenever a teammate goes down.
| Special Attacker | Support |
|---|---|
Magearna
|
Annihilape
|
| Special Attacker | Back Up Attacker |
Torkoal
|
Calyrex (Ice Rider)
|
This team composition thrives in Trick Room with multiple ways of setting it up through Magearna and Ice Rider Calyrex. Choice Scarf Annihilape can quickly take out threats with Final Gambit, which also activates Magearna's Soul-Heart because Annihilape faints.
Torkoal or Calyrex can then come in after Annihilape faints to sweep under Trick Room conditions.

・Amoonguss won't get KOd by Annihilape's Final Gambit and can force Magearna to use up its Tera or risk getting put to sleep. ▶️Amoonguss Movesets and Best Builds |
