Strategy

Volcarona baits in physical attackers (Meowscarada, Scizor, Kingambit) and burns them on contact via Flame Body, then sets up Quiver Dance to boost Sp. Atk, Sp. Def and Speed. Sitrus Berry triggers a free heal below 50% HP, letting it stack a second Quiver Dance, while Morning Sun tops it back off between boosts. Giga Drain adds coverage against the Rock-, Ground- and Water-types that threaten it while restoring extra HP, and Fiery Dance is the main STAB nuke with a 50% chance to raise Sp. Atk further. Terastallizing Grass turns Volcarona's crippling 4x weakness to Rock (a huge deal in Reg M-B, where Heavy-Duty Boots is banned) into a neutral matchup, and also removes its Water and Ground weaknesses so it can set up more freely against Stealth Rock users and bulky waters.
