Apparently you don't understand that politoed comes in, uses Focus Blast (to OHKO Tyranitar) or Hypnosis against a counter and immediatly switches out. You don't have to be a genius to understand that. Lets say you switch in Tyranitar while I switch in Kingdra (or a similar Poké), you have to switch again while Kingdra uses Dragon Dance, Hydro Pump or Draco meteor. That's not a win, especially if I previously set up SR. And no: SWIMMING GOGGLES DON'T EXIST it was just a false rumor.!_! man did you even read my post, I said Tyranitar switching into Politoed. And say x Rain Dancer KO's y Pokemon, oh look TTar gets a free switch in to change the weather and then you can switch him out and what not.
Politoed is happy that he has Focus Blast. Do Swimming Goggles exist or not? I heard they don't, but people are still saying they do. If they do He can run Focus Blast / Hypnosis / Hydro Pump / something to max up for lack of high base stat power, and the speed and acc boost.
Personally I'd run a Max Speed Max SATK Politoed with Focus Blast and Hydro Pump; who would then like to switch in a Tyranitar, Hippowdon or Abomasnow?
Only Scarfed Tyranitar can be a problem but (even if your Focus Blast misses on the predicted switch) Stone Edge deals only 65.5% - 77.6% damage to offensive Toed. Shall I repeat it again? If you are a skilled player no T-Tar can stop your Politoed.
