In today's video we are taking a look at my first battles in the Open Ultra League for Season 10. We are using one of my favorite Pokemon, this time with the legacy move Sacred Sword added to its arsenal. Joining Virizion on this team is Articuno in the back and Snorlax in the lead. This is a triple non XL team.
The addition of Sacred Sword is a massive upgrade over Close Combat, mostly because it now has a STAB Fighting move that doesn't need to lower the users defense. As a result, a lot of match-ups that previously required baiting with Leaf Blade are now a lot more straight forward and consistent.
With Virizion and Articuno in the back, this team is extremely weak to Fire types and even other Pokemon such as Lapras can cause issues. As a result, we are running ANCIENT POWER on Articuno so as to lure out the Talonflame and hope to take a shield advantage in the secondary match-up. This of course still leaves Virizion vulnerable to a Giratina in the back and is the biggest threat to this team if we do not win alignment.
The team sort of works in an ABB strategy, but it doesn't lure out the Giratina Altered. Snorlax also is not a great response for the Pokemon we are looking to lure out like Talonflame and Lapras, so it's not a traditional ABB line.
Overall, this is a team I have used in the past to success and it still appears to work in season 10. Sacred Sword definitely adds more value to Virizion and if you can keep it away from the Fairy types, Fire types and Giratina, it tends to perform quite well.
In this video we use a team consisting of: Snorlax (Lick, Body Slam, Superpower), Articuno (Ice Shard, Icy Wind, Ancient Power) & Virizion (Quick Attack, Leaf Blade, Sacred Sword*).
