If you give Maushold the Loaded Dice item, it will only use one accuracy check and can hit between 4/10 times without having to roll for accuracy after every strike. This can help even the odds of hitting multiple times.
You can also give it a Focus Sash, and if it occurs before the last hit is dealt, you will kill the defending Pokemon regardless.
