Doubles Landorus-T

:bw/landorus-therian:
Landorus-Therian @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Intimidate
Tera Type: Flying
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Stomping Tantrum
- Tera Blast
- U-turn
- Rock Slide

Landorus-T makes both the ground and its enemies quake in DOU! An Adamant nature with a Choice Scarf lets Landorus-T outspeed the unboosted metagame outside of Dragapult while maximizing its power, and Tera Blast Flying gives Landorus-T a strong STAB move at its disposal, allowing it to OHKO Chi-Yu, Ogerpon-H, Ogerpon-W, and Rillaboom. U-turn lets Landorus-T position its teammates while dealing a large chunk of damage to all of the aforementioned Pokemon. Rock Slide lets Landorus-T hit Tornadus and Chien-Pao super effectively, as well as allowing it to fish for flinches on both Pokemon. Teammates such as Chien-Pao and Flutter Mane form a powerful offensive core with Landorus-T, and they benefit from its ability to cover their weaknesses. Flutter Mane especially appreciates Landorus-T's Intimidate against physical attackers and its ability to beat Fire- and Steel-types that resist Flutter Mane's moves, as well as its ability to beat Rillaboom. Pokemon that beat Ice-types such as Iron Hands are solid partners for it, as they can also help against Chien-Pao and Kingambit, which have a positive matchup against Landorus-T.

Landorus-T makes both the ground and it's remove apostrophe enemies quake in Doubles OU! An Adamant nature with a Choice Scarf lets Landorus-T outspeed the unboosted metagame outside of Dragapult while maximising maximizing its power, and Tera Blast with Tera Flying I think "Tera Flying Tera Blast" is the correct wording here but defer to GP on this one gives Landorus-T a strong STAB move at its disposal, allowing it to OHKO Chi-Yu, Ogerpon-Hearthflame and Ogerpon-Wellspring. Given that ogerpon-h and w have the same flying weakness, we can mention rillaboom here instead of both ogerpons, up to you on how to implement this, or you can simply add rillaboom and modify the list slightly. U-Turn capitalize the T in U-Turn lets Landorus position it's remove apostrophe again teammates while doing a large chunk of damage to Rillaboom and both of the aforementioned Ogerpon forms, while Rock Slide lets Landorus-T fish for flinches on both opposing Pokémon. It also hits stuff like Tornadus / Alolan Ninetales super effectively, mention first then you can mention the additional chance to flinch. Teammates that love Landorus-T's breaking and positioning abilities such as Chien-Pao and Flutter Mane work fantastically with it. Not sure what you mean by this, that it's just a good offensive core? please clarify Flutter Mane especially appreciates Landorus-T’s ability to Intimidate physical attackers and beat Fire and Steel-types it dislikes that resist it. beating rilla is also fantastic for it Pokémon that destroy beat Ice-types and Water-types such as Rillaboom and Iron Hands are solid partners for it, as they can also help against Kingambit. The ice and water type matchups are completely different & shouldn't be mentioned together probably, and rillaboom doesn't really help with the gambit matchup. I think you just cut rilla/water mention here. I would definitely mention chien-pao as something iron hands checks + you already have the gambit mention which is enough since it's a counter pick to lando and this set struggles into it.
let me know when implemented for recheck!
