With the confirmation that Paradox Pokémon will be legal for Series 2<\/a> of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s Ranked Battle Stadium, there has only been one Pokémon worth talking about. Flutter Mane received the fastest ban on Smogon’s competitive rule list in Pokémon series history, and it is clear why. Despite having paper-thin physical defenses, Flutter Mane boasts ridiculously high offensive power. Both its Special Attack and Speed stats are through the roof, and its Fairy\/Ghost-type combination can hit any opponent for at least neutral damage. Moreover, its Special Defense stat is nothing to scoff at, either. <\/p>\n

Needless to say, Flutter Mane is going to be everywhere once it is legal, and the meta will likely revolve around either protecting your own Flutter Mane through Rage Powder and Follow Me support or countering Flutter Mane with your own offensive threats. If you plan on doing the latter, you’ve come to the right place! This article will cover everything you need to know about how to counter Flutter Mane in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, including top picks, good coverage moves, and more!<\/p>\n

How To Counter Flutter Mane In Pokémon Scarlet & Violet<\/h2>\n

As mentioned, Flutter Mane is a Fairy\/Ghost-type Pokémon, meaning its primary weakness is Steel and Ghost-type attacks. <\/strong>Flutter Mane’s typing also gives it resistance to Bug-type attacks alongside immunity to Normal, Fighting, and Dragon-type attacks. The best counters for Flutter Mane will be physically offensive Pokémon that can hit it for Super-Effective damage. Here are some Pokémon that will counter Flutter Mane:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Scizor<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Kingambit<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Corviknight<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Garganacl<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Additionally, here are some moves you may want to consider teaching to some of your other Pokémon as coverage options:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Iron Head<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • Bullet Punch<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Scizor’s Technician-empowered Bullet Punch will be able to deal serious damage to Flutter Mane. Additionally, teaching Iron Head to your Dragon-type Pokémon (such as Roaring Moon) before Terrastalizing into a Steel-type is sure to catch unsuspecting Flutter Mane off-guard. <\/p>\n

      \"Kingambit\"

      Be warned, however, as the opposing Flutter Mane will be on the lookout for Steel-type attacks, as Steel is one of the most popular Terrastalization types. Flutter Mane’s best option is to Terrastalize into a pure Ghost-type Pokémon. In these circumstances, Pokémon like Choice Scarf Dragapult should be able to deal massive damage with Shadow Ball to Flutter Mane (providing you avoid any combination of Follow Me or Rage Powder). <\/p>\n

      And that’s everything you need to know about how to counter Flutter Mane in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
