Project Lure That Threat PU Edition (Voting Stage)

[dibs]

queen of pu (Roselia) @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 40 HP / 252 SpA / 216 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 30 SpA / 30 SpD
- Sludge Bomb
- Giga Drain
- Hidden Power [Ground]
- Spikes

252+ SpA Roselia Giga Drain vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Mawile: 90-107 (29.6 - 35.1%) -- 18% chance to 3HKO
252+ SpA Roselia Hidden Power Ground vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Mawile: 194-230 (63.8 - 75.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Mawile isn't a common switch to Roselia but hey. Giga drain into Hidden power ground prevents stealth rocks or knock off. Hidden power fire also does the same thing whilst hitting Quilladin, but I find Probopass is more common.
It's not as common or impactful as Anty's situation but hey, at least he doesn't compete against himself now.

Cryogonal @ Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 1 Atk / 30 SpA / 30 SpD
- Freeze-Dry
- Recover
- Hidden Power [Ground]
- Rapid Spin

By running HP ground with leftovers your oppoenet may think that you are running toxic and switch into mawile predicting a toxic. HP ground without life orb is still a guaranteed 2HKO.

252 SpA Cryogonal Hidden Power Ground vs. 248 HP / 0 SpD Mawile: 170-202 (56.1 - 66.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery

Leafeon @ Apicot Berry
Ability: Chlorophyll
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Leaf Blade
- Knock Off
- Natural Gift

Apicot Berry gives Leafeon a 100 BP Ground-type move in conjunction with Natural Gift. It does a huge chunk to Mawile after setting up a SD on the switch, not killing, but enough to take it out of play for partners like Stoutland or Dodrio. It is also able to lure Monferno, Muk, and Arbok after setting up a Swords Dance, as well as hit random fire types on the switch.

I'm sorry for yall who saw solrock xd

Ninjask @ Choice Band
Ability: Infiltrator
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- U-turn
- Aerial Ace
- X-Scissor
- Final Gambit

Ninjask Final Gambit vs. 252 HP Mawile: 263-263 (86.5 - 86.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Stealth Rock

s/o MoM for making me realize how bad running 92 HP for the OHKO after rocks is ;3;

 

[LordST]

I feel like I'm cheating for posting this since it's in the OP but its still effective so here:

Zweilous @ Life Orb
Ability: Hustle
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naughty Nature
- Outrage
- Crunch
- Superpower/ Head Smash
- Earth Power

So normally Defensive Mawile would be a hard counter to Zweilous. It resists 1 of its STABs and is immune to the other, gets an Intimidate off so coverage moves like Superpower really won't do too much. and can easily OHKO with a Play Rough no matter what spread each mon is running. Earth Power changes this and will effectively lure Mawile assuming it hits. This leaves room for things like Scarf Dodrio or Ninjask to sweep late game with one of the tiers best normal and flying resists blown back by this monster. On a less relevant not it's worth knowing that Zweilous outspeeds Adamant Mawile and can do a huge chunk of damage to it or even KO if Mawile has a Naughty nature.

4 SpA Life Orb Zweilous Earth Power vs. 248 HP / 0 SpD Mawile: 192-229 (63.3 - 75.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery

Now Come Up With A Core That Utilizes his Murkrow Set.

Set

Murkrow @ Life Orb

Hasty Nature
- Brave Bird
- Sucker Punch
- Pursuit / Hidden Power [Grass]
- Heat Wave

Murkrow @ Life Orb
Ability: Super Luck
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Brave Bird
- Sucker Punch
- Pursuit / Hidden Power [Grass]
- Heat Wave

Muk @ Choice Band
Ability: Sticky Hold/ Poison Touch
EVs: 172 HP / 252 Atk / 84 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Gunk Shot
- Fire Punch
- Shadow Sneak
- Ice Punch

Pretty sweet offensive core here. Murkrow baits out Steels like Mawile, Pawniard, and Metang with Heat Wave and either weakens them severely or kills them on a switch. In the case of Metang Heat Wave into Sucker Punch should be killing Metang most of the time. Murkrow can also either weaken Psychic types with Pursuit so Muk doesn't have to worry about them or can bait in Golem and Relicanth with Hidden Power Grass . The combination of Steels being lured and two great Poison resists in Golem and Relicanth being weakened means Muk can freely spam Gunk Shots. On the flipside Muk can weaken Murkrow's checks like Avalugg, Stunfisk, and Klang. Overall really solid core.

Murkrow @ Life Orb
Ability: Super Luck
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Brave Bird
- Sucker Punch
- Pursuit / Hidden Power [Grass]
- Heat Wave

Leafeon @ Yache Berry
Ability: Leaf Guard
- Swords Dance
- Leaf Blade
- Knock Off
- Return

This core is really straight-forward so I won't go into much detail. Mawile happens to be one of Leafeon's most annoying checks due to Intimidate and the fact that it resists any move Leafeon typically runs. If Murkrow can successfully lure in Mawile, Leafeon is free to set up Swords Dance and sweep. The core is very weak to Ice so Yache Berry is a good idea on Leafeon, but it would be best to add another ice resist such as Grumpig or Lapras to round it out.
