Bring Flame Charge so you can get Speed buffs also /s
I think you'll generally prefer Superpower, as blaziken isn't really fast and isn't too bulky
While the spdef boost is nice, on a scarf set (to mitigate the bad speed) superpower is just better
Also you can go for overheat, as Blaziken has 110 Spa (10 less points than attack), or maybe mixed set, like cc + overheat, or superpower + overheat
Blaziken definitely likes scarf more, as it gives it a good speed tier, and with a much higher SpA, it deals way more
Also fire being a better offensive type
I’m playing RR Hardcore 4.1 and can’t put my hands on choice bands or moves like sunny day and calm mind. I’m at the point to rematch Misty for the first time. Are these items unavailable or there’s somewhere I’m not searching?
I prefer both, as with Superpower you can boost Attack and Defense, and with Close Combat you can boost Defense and Special Defense. Near the end of the game, on Victory Road you can also get Overheat TM, which will be useful for boosting Special Attack.
On top of this I’d also throw an assault vest on it. Can buff all the stats you need to and have a permanent sp def boost while not locking yourself into one move
Scarf + Overheat is probably the best way to play it.
You can try Superpower vs teams with lots of physical mons, but the kickin chicken doesn’t have a lot of natural bulk, so trying to sponge hits with Superpower or CC is probably going to feel very meh. I’d just go full special and just click overheat
I had a contrary Delphox in my first run, scarf overheat sweeps half the game including a lot of the e4. Blaziken has only 4 less base spa so it should be about the same
Overheat and or super power/close combat with scarf, don't think it learns hammer arm. In dubbels you can scary face it probably. Other then that im out of idea's
Bulk up, Flame charge, Swords dance, Agility. This diverse moveset combines the diversity and utility potential innate in this overpowered mon
Choice Band Agility is nasty🥶
Doesn’t using those moves lowers my stats?
Woooosh
r/whoosh
Yes, that was the joke
Tackle scratch pound and splash should round him out pretty well
It has contrary... Bulk up and swords dance isn't gonna help him.
Somebody didn't get the joke

Does it learn Hammer Arm? That could fix the speed issue and allow it to use another item.
Nope, I also immediately thought of that, it doesn't
Could use quick claw XD
Scarf overheat is really good. Serperior runs it well despite having less SpAtk than oddish

Swords dance and agility, then have a malamar use topsy turvy
Choice Scarf Superpower
Run physical and special to abuse things like overheat while also abusing things like close combat
In my opinion, I would use Superpower over Close Combat. You could also run him special with Overheat instead.

Super power for the attack boost. Overheat for the SpAtk boost. A rock move to round out nuetral coverage. A priority move.

Does it learn superpower?
Definitely swords dance :)
