The Next Best Thing Round 2

This Primarina is designed to beat stall teams with the combination of a strong STAB in Moonblast and the disruption provided by Psychic Noise. Liquid Voice is the preferred ability so Prima can hit Steels and Grounds like Corviknight and Gliscor much harder. Torrent is an option if your team is afraid of Water Absorb Clodsire and/or Toxapex. Tera Ghost allows Primarina to 1v1 non T-wave Blisseys while also neutralizing the threat of Iron Defense + Body Press mons. The set has maximum offensive investment so Primarina can more easily muscle through stall teams. Rest and Leftovers give Primarina more longevity. Sleep Talk can give you a few extra Psychic Noise PP while Substitute can be run to avoid status. If running Substitute, I would probably use a bulkier spread that is able to avoid having your sub broken by Clodsire's Earthquake.
