Moves
=========
Frustration is capable of blowing apart frailer opponents like Weavile and Volcarona after Stealth Rock and 2HKO-ing Tapu Lele, Tornadus-T and Choice Scarf Landorus-T. Frustration is also used over Return to prevent Ditto from having access to a strong STAB option if it turns into Lopunny, with many Ditto being at maximum happiness which significantly reduces Frustration's power. High Jump Kick nails Kartana, Ferrothorn and Heatran for a OHKO while being the strongest STAB move Mega Lopunny's arsenal. Power-Up Punch is used as a way to boost Mega Lopunny's Attack stat while doing decent chip damage to anything wanting to switch-in on it, with boosted Frustration being able to 2HKO Toxapex and Gliscor and making High Jump Kick OHKO Mega Mawile. Encore is used to take advantage of defensive Pokemon clicking status moves, such as Landorus-T and Heatran using Stealth Rock, Toxapex using Recover, or Latias-Mega and Gliscor using Roost. This interaction creates an awkward scenario for the opponent, forcing them to switch into a powerful STAB move or give Lopunny a free turn to set up with Power-Up Punch.
