[SET COMMENTS]
* AV Alomomola can surprise special attackers by better taking their attacks, and doing double the damage back when they deal too much.
* **Mirror Coat**: Mirror Coat is the main draw of this set, easily OHKOing Flutter Mane and Iron Bundle that attack.
* **Liquidation**: With more base power and a good chance to drop Defence, Liquidation is highly preferred over Waterfall as the primary STAB option.
* **Play Rough vs. Tera Blast**: Play Rough is an excellent option to dispose of relatively harmless Hydreigons, Tera Blast deals with Scizor and is the best option against Gholdengo.
* **Aqua Jet**: Aqua Jet can pick off Focus Sash users at their sash, as well as other weakened foes.
Tera Types
========
Tera Dependency - Low: With Mirror Coat, Alomomola can often cope with taking more damage from grass type attacks. However, tera is still a good option to avoid neutral damage from Fairy attacks, as well as Scizor's bug attacks.
* **Fire**: A Fire Tera type grants a grass resistance, while also blocking burns.
* **Water**: A water Tera increases Alomomola's primary means of dealing damage that doesn't rely on the opponent.
EVs
========
* **28 HP/ 220 Atk/ 4 Def/ 244 SpD/ 12 Spe with Adamant** This EV spread allows Alomomola to be as specially bulky as possible, while OHKOing Hydreigon and KOing Glimmora through Liquidation and Aqua Jet,. The Speed EVs outspeed uninvested Skeledirge.
* **252 HP/ 4 Atk/ 252 SpD with Careful** Alternatively, one can opt to maximize Alomomola's Special Defence in order to Mirror Coat back a greater number of special attacks. Notably, this EV spread comfortably survives +6 Timid Gholdengo's Shadow Ball, with a good chance after Stealthh Rock damage. It can also switch in on Choice Specs Chi-Yu.
