Worry Seed Ferrothorn Concept

by Neon

While most Ferrothorn focus on maintaining themselves to continue stacking hazards, this Ferrothorn is much more disruption heavy, still being able to check the many threats Ferrothorn is tasked with, while amplifying its ability to mess with its switch ins even further. Worry Seed is a strong tool paired with Knock Off, as it makes Ferrothorn able to both cancel out a Tornadus' boots on the switch in, but also its Regenerator making its one way of healing off Stealth Rock Damage disappear, and force it to sometimes take multiple rounds of Stealth Rock without a chance to heal it. This also comes with several benefits such as canceling out Clefable and Reuniclus' Magic Guard, and shutting down Magnezone's Magnet Pull making it unable to trap it without playing the long game. This set pairs best with a strong stealth rocker that threatens Tornadus, preventing it from coming in and defogging Rocks away before Ferro can disrupt it. This also works very well with Toxic Spikes due to Ferrothorn being able to shut down Clefable's Magic Guard, giving it a way to threaten it while still keeping room for Power Whip in its arsenal for Tapu Fini or Body Press to better pressure Melmetal.
