OVERVIEW]
- Roserade thrives in the UU tier thanks to the combination of its great support moves in Spikes, Toxic Spikes, Synthesis Sleep Powder, solid base stats with a powerful 125 Special Attack and good base 90 Speed, allowing it to outpace the likes of Kingdra, Suicune and Nidoqueen.
-These assets allow Roserade to perform as both an offensive powerhouse and a versatile support Pokemon, being able to beat down common threats like Rhyperior, Shaymin and Swampert, while being able to set up incredibly valuable hazards for its team.
- Roserade also has access to the fantastic ability Natural Cure, which allows it to also act as a reliable status absorber for the teams they're on whilst freely being able to switch into the likes of Suicune, Milotic and Blastoise
- Even though Roserade is an exceptional Pokémon in the tier, it does have some weaknesses. It has rather a low HP and Defense Stat, weaknesses to common typings like Fire, Flying and Psychic and only a good speed tier leaves it vulnerable to a number of offensive threats like Victini, Zapdos and Heracross
