Greetings, i just faced my first Malamar on PVP and had a real hard time against it. It had a moveset made of Superpower, Knock off, Rest and Sleep talk, wuth Contrary ability. Any good checks.counters for it? Thank you.

 

The smogon counters are either not available in this game or bad pokes overall.....

Clefable is a good checker for him. Since resists both Superpower and Knock off.

Heracross is a counter: 320cf60ed025f2b50ee06dd5766e0e23.png, just pray to hit megahorn xD

 

pretty sure there are a few more, but this 2 best ones i can think of :D

 

I see that even an adamant Heracross with Guts and burn isnt 100% sure to 1hitKO (if Megahorn hits at all) And thats without the Defence boost after 1 Superpower, correct? I guess clef is the best bet here.

252 SpA Life Orb Alakazam Signal Beam vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Malamar: 380-452 (101 - 120.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO

 

252 Atk Choice Band Talonflame U-turn vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Malamar: 368-436 (97.8 - 115.9%) -- 87.5% chance to OHKO after Leftovers recovery and switch into a faster mon

 

252+ Atk Choice Band Huge Power Azumarill Play Rough vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Malamar: 594-702 (157.9 - 186.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO

 

252+ Atk Choice Band Rhyperior Megahorn vs. 252 HP / 4 Def Malamar: 1008-1188 (268 - 315.9%) -- guaranteed OHKO

 

Here are a few other mons that easily deal with malamar.

those calc were made with +6def malamar ^_^ so even a jolly can kill, if only +4 ^.o
