Iron Valiant

Iron Valiant is a more forgiving non-Prankster Trick user than Calyrex-S or Meowscarada, being OHKOed by Zacian Steel Beam when Naive while still outspeeding a significant portion of the meta. With Naive Black Sludge, Iron Valiant is even OHKOed by Tinkatuff Steel Beam! Iron Valiant also has an impressive support movepool, with access to Taunt, Encore, Imprison, Thunder Wave, and even Trick Room. Imprison notably lets Iron Valiant slow down Magic Bounce and Oblivious Pokemon as well as Gholdengo and Dachsbun. If Tricking Sitrus Berry, Iron Valiant should have 1 HP IV to make Sitrus Berry activate as rarely as possible. Tera Dark lets Iron Valiant ignore Pranksters, while Tera Ghost lets it escape trappers, and Tera Rock lets it be OHKOed by Electrode-H Chloroblast.
