Physical Sweeper Marowak-Alola-Totem (Rock Head)
Marowak is a pretty decent Physical Sweeper for single battles. This moveset is designed to take down the opponent's team with brute physical power. The Shell Bell item option is to help Marowak recover from the recoil damage it may take from Flare Blitz. With Rock Head, Marowak does not take recoil damage besides struggle/life orb/crash damage. Earthquake or Knock Off are added to provide additional threat coverage. With a Firium Z equipped to it, if Marowak has a fire move, this item allows it to use a fire z-move.
◆ Flare Blitz is a physical STAB-boosted 120-base power Fire-type move (has 33% recoil. 10% chance to burn. Thaws Marowak). ◆ Fire Punch is a physical STAB-boosted 75-base power Fire-type move (10% chance to burn the target). ◆ Shadow Bone is a physical STAB-boosted 85-base power Ghost-type move (20% chance to lower the target's defense by 1 stage). ◆ Outrage is a physical 120-base power Dragon-type move (lasts 2-3 turns. Confuses your Marowak afterwards). ◆ Earthquake is a physical 100-base power Ground-type move (hits adjacent pokemon). ◆ Knock Off is a physical 65-base power Dark-type move (1.5x damage if foe holds an item; Note: This will also remove that item).
