Movepool Additions: Fusion Bolt, Thunderbolt, Volt Switch, Thunder Wave, Fire Punch, Iron Head, Morning Sun, Rapid Spin
Movepool Removals: Will-O-Wisp, Hex, Curse
Justification: Walls Ninetales rather handily due to Fire resistance and good SpD. Lives SR, +2 Twinkle Tackle, and +2 Moonblast factoring in two turns of Leftovers. 2HKOes with uninvested Fusion Bolt. Spins against Dugtrio, and threatens the tier's Ghost types. With regards to Water types, it should fare great agaisnt Wailord, has a balanced matchup against Rotom-W, and does not so well against Ludicolo. With regards to Steel types, it fares well against Dugtrio and Magearna, okay against Malamar depending on the set, and is 2HKOed by Type: Null.
Name of the Pokemon: Crobat
Role(s): Physical Wall, Defensive Pivot, Hazard Removal, Cleric, Stallbreaker
Type: Poison/Fighting
Abilities: Rough Skin / Magic Guard |
Grassy Surge (HA)
Stat Distribution: 110 / 70 / 100 / 60 / 65 / 80 (No changes)
Movepool Additions: Spikes, Glare, Parting Shot, Rapid Spin, Knock Off, Nature's Madness, Healing Wish
Justification: Crobat was intended to have a wierd typing, but be viable by having a great support movepool. Unfortunately, it didn't quite have the support movepool to make that work, its ability does very little for a type that already is immune to poison and resistant to Stealth Rock, and it had too few defensive matchups to come in all that much. With Grassy Surge it can wall Pupitar and Dugtrio, with Spikes it can make every switch-in worth something, and with Knock Off and Nature's Madness it doesn't give Ghost types free switches anymore. Crobat is now a solid team supporter and not such a momentum sink.
