I just wanna grill, man!
Pawniard @ Berry Juice
Ability: Defiant
Level: 5
EVs: 156 Atk / 36 Def / 196 SpD / 116 Spe
Careful Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Knock Off
- Iron Head
- Sucker Punch
Pawniard's excellent typing and decent bulk make it an important check to powerful special attackers like Abra and Porygon. Berry Juice greatly boosts Pawniard's longevity and prevents 2HKOs from, for example, Natu's and Koffing's coverage when combined with maximum Special Defense investment. Knock Off and Iron Head have almost perfect coverage, letting Pawniard take a chunk out of common threats like Mienfoo, Mareanie, and Ferroseed. Sucker Punch handles faster foes like Abra and Natu and lets Pawniard play mindgames with opposing Diglett, while Stealth Rock lets it capitalize on the switches it forces. Poison-types such as Koffing and Mareanie are mandatory teammates to switch into opposing Mienfoo; Mareanie can also check opposing Ponyta. Grookey can handle opposing Mudbray and Onix for Pawniard.
