Could you add the missing natures and ability to the post?

Answer 1

Battle tower isn't really that hard, you can get to master ball tier with the rental teams the old man provides, but I'll see what I can do.

I don't think Zerora does quite enough damage and thus would honestly change fake out into bulk up. You won't be switching in between zerora and another pokemon that often if you want to sweep really well.

Gardevoir is relatively good, however since you already have a countermeasure for ground types, I'd actually repurpose it into a dual screens lead.

Gardevoir @ Light Clay
Ability: Synchronize(if you can get an ability capusle you'll want trace)
EVs: 252 HP/252 SpA/4 Spe
-Light Screen
-Reflect
-Psyshock
-Moonblast

Gastrodon is good, however I'd actually use earth power over earthquake.

Please no one flag me for having the question "why does zerora not get swords dance" in the rmt section.

Answer 2

Well it’s pretty good but there is a problem if your trying to survive longer I would get rid of life orb on zerorara also I would replace the life orb with the magnet item because it would raise electric atacks.

life orb boosts damage more than magnet and also Zeraora is frail anyways
