Is Coalossal any good for Gen 8 Doubles?

Jun. 28, 2020



Hi, just registered but I would like to ask if Coalossal is any good. I have been thinking about maybe adding Lycanroc since Coalossal gets 4 times damage from Water and Ground type moves. Thanks!

Coalossal’s main use in Gen 8 Doubles involves his Steam Engine ability.

Coalossal @ Weakness PolicyLevel: 50Ability: Steam EngineEVs: 76 HP / 252 SpA / 180 SpeModest Nature- Heat Wave- Meteor Beam- Solar Beam- Protect

One of the most used sets involves Gigantamax with Steam Engine and Weakness Policy. Use with another Pokemon that has access to Surf, but won’t do much damage, like Weavile. This gives you the ability to instantly get +6 Spe, +2 Atk, and +2 Sp.Atk. This makes Coalossal a threatening weapon in doubles that can sweep teams if used correctly
