\- Superpower\
\- Knock Off

Darmanitan Delta excels at using its very high base attack to hit almost every Pokemon super effectively with a combination of physical Ghost moves and Knock Off. Superpower lets it ohko Kingambit while also taking 4 dead +0 Sucker Punch at the same time. Choice Scarf is rather standard and just lets Delta Darmanitan outrun most unboosted Pokemon. Choice Band allows Delta Darmanitan to 2hko physically defensive Pokemon such as Great Tusk with Poltergeist, however this move is inconsistent with Booster Energy running around on paradox pokemon. Shadow Strike is more consistent while also enabling some 2hkos with the Shadow Strike defense drop being 50%.
