PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

  • Metal Claw and Sunsteel Strike allow Dusk Mane Necrozma to become the apex Steel attacker.
  • Psycho Cut and Future Sight can make Dusk Mane Necrozma a decent Psychic attacker, should you need it.
  • Iron Head can be used as a second Charged Attack to complement Sunsteel Strike as it costs significantly less energy. Its DPS is considerably weaker than Sunsteel Strike, however, so it should only be used when Dusk Mane Necrozma is about to faint and cannot feasibly reach Sunsteel Strike.
  • Shadow Claw, Outrage and Dark Pulse have no use on offense.

PVE Overview

Dusk Mane Necrozma is an extremely powerful Steel attacker, courtesy of its incredible Attack stat backed by an absurdly powerful moveset. Longtime players may recall how Metagross and its eventual Shadow form ruled that niche with such an iron fist that no other Pokemon could ever hope to match it. Enter Dusk Mane Necrozma, toppling that throne and eclipsing Shadow Metagross's raw power. The one roadblock to Dusk Mane Necrozma's reign is that there aren't too many Legendary raid bosses that are weak to Steel. However, when one shows up, Dusk Mane Necrozma is more than ready to smash it into smithereens.

Make use of Party Power with Dusk Mane Necrozma whenever possible. Sunsteel Strike has a mind boggling 230 base power, so imagine doubling that.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Shadow Claw + Dark Pulse and Sunsteel Strike* OR Future Sight

Despite lacking in STAB, Shadow Claw is Dusk Mane Necrozma's best Fast Attack choice due to its great parameters and offensive coverage. Psycho Cut is a great move, but lacks damage. Metal Claw is bad, even with STAB.

Dark Pulse is one of Dusk Mane Necrozma's cheapest Charged Attacks and provides complimentary coverage to its harder hitting nukes. Sunsteel Strike has an extremely high raw DPE, but Future Sight can be used to target some Water- or Fire-type Pokemon that Sunsteel Strike falls short against. Outrage can be used to surprise Dragon-type opponents. Iron Head is largely outclassed by Sunsteel Strike, but it can be used alongside Future Sight or Outrage if you need cheap-ish and reliable Steel-type damage.

PvP Rating Explanation

Great League: 0 / 5

Dusk Mane Necrozma is ineligible for Great League as its CP is too high.

Ultra League: 2 / 5

Dusk Mane Necrozma's highly Attack weighted stat spread means that it is a glass cannon, cursing it with an unfavorable stat product in the Ultra League. Its Charged Attacks are fairly slow for its frailty, and superior Steel-type options like Registeel and Alolan Sandslash make it difficult for Dusk Mane Necrozma to land a niche.

Master League: 5 / 5

Dusk Mane Necrozma is the premier choice for a Steel-type in the Master League. Its strong stats, crucial resistances, and flexible movepool make it a versatile choice that fits easily onto teams. Dusk Mane Necrozma keeps various key threats in check, such as Dialga, Zacian, Xerneas, and Lugia. The wide coverage and explosive potential of its moves ensures that Dusk Mane Necrozma is not easily taken advantage of by its potential checks.

However, Dusk Mane Necrozma is not invincible. Its Psychic/Steel typing opens it up to four weaknesses, all of which are common. Yveltal, Landorus-T and especially Ho-Oh can be a thorn on Dusk Mane Necrozma's side.
