Movesets et sets compétitifs de Maushold

As a bulky support Pokemon, Maushold aims to redirect attacks for its partners as well as disrupt its foes. Maushold additionally has Friend Guard, increasing the survivability of its allies. Beat Up is used to increase the power of Rage Fist from a partner Annihilape and grant Defense boosts to a partner Archaludon with Stamina; it can also be used to break Focus Sashes. Taunt disrupts Trick Room setters and opposing support Pokemon like Porygon2 and Electabuzz. Tera Ghost makes Maushold immune to Close Combat from Sneasler, Fake Out from Incineroar, and Extreme Speed from Dragonite. Tera Fairy turns Maushold's weakness to Close Combat into a resistance and provides an immunity to Outrage from Dragonite. Tera Fairy is also a great defensive typing into the metagame. Safety Goggles grants Maushold an immunity to Spore and Rage Powder. This Maushold set is capable of taking multiple attacks; however, it is easily disrupted by Taunt, forcing Maushold to be switched out to remove the effect. The set is also very passive and deals very low damage.

Offensive Maushold aims to soften up foes or take surprising KOs with Technician Population Bomb while also providing redirection and disruption support. Population Bomb allows Maushold to deal devastating damage, especially with ten hits, which is enough to remove threats such as Dragonite. Taunt shuts down Trick Room setters like Porygon2 and opposing support Pokemon like Amoonguss. Tera Ghost makes Maushold immune to Close Combat from Sneasler, Fake Out from Incineroar, and Extreme Speed from Dragonite. Tera Grass grants Maushold an immunity to Spore and Rage Powder. Tera Grass also provides useful resistances to Water- and Electric-type attacks such as Wave Crash from Basculegion and Electro Shot from Archaludon. Wide Lens is used to increase the accuracy of Population Bomb, greatly increasing the chance of landing ten hits. While this set is capable of dealing high damage, it is reliant on landing enough Population Bomb hits to take out or weaken threats. This set lacks defensive investment, so it is not expected to be able to redirect attacks throughout the battle.

Tidy Up Maushold is a good setup sweeper for Normal teams, as it is able to outspeed and take out threats like non-Choice Scarf Iron Valiant, non-Iron Defense Zamazenta, and Urshifu-R. At +1 Attack, Population Bomb becomes a fierce move, taking out a plethora of threats not running Rocky Helmet, notably Toxapex and Gouging Fire. Bite allows Maushold to threaten Ghost-types like Dragapult and Hisuian Zoroark at +1, while Encore lets Maushold lock foes into moves such as locking Corviknight into Defog and Bisharp into Sucker Punch; this allows Maushold to get a potential Tidy Up turn. Low Kick can be run over Encore to hit pesky Steel- and Rock-types like Bisharp, Hisuian Goodra, Heatran, and Tyranitar. Play Rough threatens Dark- and Dragon-types like Hydreigon, Sableye on a switch in, and unboosted Roaring Moon, but running it leaves Maushold vulnerable to Bisharp. Wide Lens is the best item for Maushold to ensure Population Bomb is accurate as possible. Hisuian Zoroark is a great teammate for Maushold, providing a Fighting immunity while also fooling its foes due to Illusion. It also takes out physically bulky Pokemon like Gholdengo and Archaludon with Shadow Ball and Focus Blast and can use Trick to lock walls like Sableye into undesirable moves by giving them Choice Specs, which eases Maushold's sweeping capabilities. Ditto reverse sweeps against potential setup sweepers like Chien-Pao and Ceruledge, while Maushold provides entry hazard removal via Tidy Up, keeping Ditto as healthy as possible. Indeedee eases the Fighting matchup by dealing with Zamazenta and Choice Specs Keldeo with Expanding Force. It also provides Healing Wish support, allowing one of its teammates a second chance to sweep, and sets up Psychic Terrain so that Maushold does not fear revenge killing attempts from the likes of Scizor and Keldeo. Ursaluna-B is a great bulky teammate, taking out Steel- and Poison-types like Archaludon and Sneasler, which would otherwise be troublesome to Maushold. Calm Mind Terapagos with BoltBeam coverage deals with pesky Flying- and Dragon-types like Corviknight, Skarmory, and Dragonite for Maushold. Blissey is an amazing special wall, tanking special hits from Flutter Mane and Greninja while also spreading paralysis via Thunder Wave. It also provides hazard support with Stealth Rock, which gives Maushold chance to OHKO Gliscor.
