Question

while I had po many people used fear sets of some sought
what are some of the best counters
ive read bulbapedia and the strats listed on this page but some are very useless and i can think of a few that havent been listed
heres a few - use leftovers the low lv pokemon has to do damage - doesnt work with arron due to sandstorm
spikes - there focus sash or sturdy is negated
another priority move - extreme speed works well with +2 priority
multi hit moves - works well with cloyster

arron is OU because of if holding shell bell is deadly (in sandstorm with sturdy it uses endeavor then recovers all hp with shell bell then foe dies to sandstorm then you can use again and again)
it is the most common fear pokemon watch this

so best counters please

Answer 1

Ghost Types: Ghost Types are immune to Endeavor thus nullifying the strategy.
Entry Hazards: They render Sturdy and Focus-sash useless and thus making them capable of being OHKOed
Status conditions: Particularly poison, and burn they make them take damage without lowering them down to 1.
Mold-breaker: Nullifies Sturdy so you can OHKO
Multi-hit moves: They hit multiple times so Sturdy and Focus-sash make no difference
Magic-room: Because items do not take effect Shell bell and Focus-sash can not activate so you can OHKO the ones with Focus-sash and 2KO the ones with Sturdy.
Flinch-moves: They can't use endeavor if they flinch, though this tactic is more risky
Damaging weather: Hail would be best because Aron and Donphan are immune to sand
Fake-out: Similar to the flinching thing, this way they take damage but are guaranteed to flinch
Priority: For Quick attack ones priority will work because you are guaranteed to be faster.
Encore: They are stuck using Endeavor so they can not kill you(With Aron and Donphan you can just switch to a Ground/Ghost Pokemon).

From Mew:
Use another FEAR Pokemon.

Will add more when I think of them.

Encore one is funny :) but you may have a problem with sandstorm arron

---

Not if you have a Ghost/Ground/Rock/Steel Pokemon.

---

Wait, ghosts aren't hit by weather? And Mold Breaker is exactly how I beat Mew despite the fact he had a FEAR Aron. Hail Haxorus!

---

No Ghosts are immune to Endeavor.

---

TKL, you did NOT beat me in that battle.

---

Let's just say I won the battle.

---

Speed, there are 3 exceptions to the Ghosts. Tailow, Swellow, and Kangaskhan have the ability Scrappy, which allows Normal moves to hit Ghosts.

---

But none of those are immune to Weather.

---

Hazards.

I have entry hazards has my second one.
