Overview
########

As a lead, Crustle faces stiff competition with just about every other lead such as Rhyperior, Cobalion, Registeel, Gligar, Accelgor, Qwilfish, Uxie, and Omastar. One feature that sets Crustle apart from the others is its access to Shell Smash, which can help it to beat Defoggers that will come in to clear its hazards. However, this does not set it apart from Omastar, Barbaracle, and Carracosta, all of whom receive Shell Smash. In BW it had access to the Custap Berry, but unfortunately it was dealt a losing hand in XY, as the Custap Berry is still unreleased. On the positive side, Crustle has relatively good Defense. It also has access to Sturdy, which almost guarantees at least one layer of hazards. On the negative side, Crustle has poor Special Attack and Speed, but requires maximum investment in both in order to KO Gligar with Hidden Power Ice. Its Special Defense isn't anything to brag about either, leaving it with a crippling weak spot.

Lead
########

move 1: Spikes
move 2: Shell Smash / Stealth Rock

ability: Sturdy
item: Mental Herb / Lum Berry
evs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
nature: Naive

Moves
========

Setting up multiple layers of Spikes is Crustle's main goal. Shell Smash allows Crustle to boost its Attack, Special Attack, and Speed, which are useful for KOing Defoggers that come in to clear off your Spikes. Stealth Rock can be used over Shell Smash, as HP Ice with the given EV spread can 2HKO Gligar after Stealth Rock, on the other hand Shell Smash allows Crustle to OHKO Gligar after a boost. A Rock-type STAB move allows Crustle to hit Defog variants of Golbat and Togetic. Rock Blast is better for dealing with Focus Sash Accelgor, who also commonly sets up Spikes, but Stone Edge can be used to ensure more power. X-Scissor can be used over Stone Edge to hit Shiftry super effectively, but it is not recommended unless you already have teammates that can hit other Defoggers, especially Golbat, which are more common.

Set Details
========

The given EV spread is for maximizes damage against Gligar, which will often come in to use Defog. Maximum Special Attack allows for a clean 2HKO after Stealth Rock damage, and an OHKO after a Shell Smash boost and Stealth Rock damage. The Mental Herb allows Crustle to evade Taunt, which is important in a tier filled with Taunters such as Cobalion, Drapion, Qwilfish, and Golbat, and especially ones with Prankser such as Mega Banette, Whimsicott, and Liepard. A Lum Berry is useful for the many status users in the tier, that can hinder your ability to set Spikes up or KO Defoggers. Sturdy guarantees that Crustle can't be OHKOed, which, alongside the Mental Herb, almost ensures at least one layer of hazards.

Usage Tips
========

Make sure to set up hazards immediately, as not doing so could result in a wasted Mental Herb or losing Sturdy, and setting them up is Crustle's main priority. After Spikes are set up, your priority is to protect them. When using Shell Smash, don't leave Crustle vulnerable to being hit hard and revenge killed. Utilize switches to Defoggers, to KO them. It's possible to predict switches to Defoggers and hit them on the switch, allowing Crustle to 2HKO them.

Team Options
========

Crustle works well with Pokemon that can help keep its hazards up, such as spinblockers and Pokemon with Defiant. Pairing it with Ghost-types such as Doublade, Mega Banette, or Mismagius as well as Braviary can help you keep them up for a longer time. Many viable sweepers appreciate hazard support to assist their sweeps.

Other Options
########
When it comes to roles outside of a lead, Crustle can attempt use to Shell Smash and sweep, but it's not worth it when Gorebyss, Huntail, and Omastar can use Shell Smash as well, with the former two being able to pass their boosts and the latter being a far superior sweeper. A defensive Crustle set exists, but it is strongly not recommended as it is in no way a viable set.

Checks & Counters
########
**Cincinno**: The dreaded combination of Skill Link and Rock Blast allows Cincinno to manhandle Crustle, as it bypasses Sturdy by hitting five times and KOes easily.
**Rapid Spinners**: Kabutops makes quick work of Crustle, as it can hit Crustle with a super effective Waterfall or Stone Edge to activate Sturdy and KO with Rapid Spin, removing its hazards at the same time. Hitmonlee can do the same with High Jump Kick, as even without a type advantage it can bring Crustle down to one HP with one hit and KO it with Rapid Spin.
**Rhyperior**: Like Cincinno, Rhyperior often carries Rock Blast and can bypass Sturdy to OHKO Crustle, depending on how many times Rock Blast hits. It can also shrugs off Crustle's attacks thanks to Solid Rock. However, it is slower than Crustle and it requires a decent damage roll to OHKO it.

 

[New Breed]

Okay you must have been afk when i said this on irc but, for the meta atm the best set is Spikes/Shell Smash/HP Ice/Rock Blast with same ev's, then Stealth Rock slashed with Shell Smash. Rock Blast is better just for Accelgor but you can slash Stone Edge with it. Let me know here/irc when you fixed that up and i'll be happy to approve

 

[EonX]

Let's have fun with this thing:

[Overview]

- I'd mention Barbaracle somewhere since, like Crustle, it's a physical-based user of Shell Smash

[HP Ice]

- Weird af set name, but eh
- Remove Braviary and Gligar mentions for Rock STAB and replace them with Golbat. Braviary should never run Defog and you have HP Ice with Gligar
- Fix the first bullet point in Set Details. Looks like you ended it too early or something

[Other Options]

- Mention a defensive set just to say it sucks and should never be used

[Checks and Counters]

- Why is this missing?
- Anyhow, Cinccino stops this thing cold because of Rock Blast
- Rhyperior limits it to one layer should it get a decent roll on Rock Blast
- Kabutops owns this thing. Waterfall brings it down to Sturdy, and then it can Spin to KO
- Hitmonlee is similar to Kabutops

Update with these changes and I'll be back to ensure everything looks right before approving.

 

[HypnoEmpire]

Not QC or anything, but I think you should mention when Shell Smash should be used in Set Details. You say to set up hazards turn 1, so I feel like that's important to put in there.

 

[EonX]

Couple of things to clean up:

• Crustle doesn't set Rocks. Remove that little bit in the sweepers bullet point in Team Options
• Also easy to use SS if you predict a Defog user coming in to remove your hazards
• Move Rapid Spinners above Rhyperior in c&c. Rhyperior is slower than Crustle and needs a decent roll on Rock Blast hits to OHKO Crustle (at least 3 iirc) thus meaning it can't fully prevent hazards from going up, whereas Tops and Lee are able to KO and spin them away (Cinccino just disallows it in general)

Fix these things up, and consider this

QC Approved 1/3

slash lum berry with mental herb since froslass left lum is a decent option

Overview
########

As a lead, Crustle faces stiff competition from just about every other lead such as Rhyperior, Cobalion, Registeel, Gligar, Accelgor, Qwilfish, Uxie, and Omastar (I understand that it faces competition from many leads, but this list could be consolidated as example lists should not intrinsically be exhaustive, especially since few of them are mentioned elsewhere in this analysis). One feature that sets it apart from the others is Crustle's access to Shell Smash, which can help it to beat Defoggers that will come in to clear its hazards. However, it is not set apart from Omastar, Barbaracle, and or Carracosta, all of whom receive Shell Smash as well. In B/W it had access to the Custap Berry, but unfortunately it was dealt a losing hand in X/Y when the Custap Berry is still unreleased. (from the Spelling and Grammar Standards: 'Do not write an analysis in a form that puts emphasis on changes by generation.') On the positive side, Crustle has relatively good Defense. It also has (be sure to remove comma) and has access to Sturdy, which almost certifies guarantees one layer of hazards. On the negative side, Crustle has poor Special Attack and Speed, (remove comma) but requires maximum investment in both in order to beat Gligar. with Hidden Power Ice (unnecessary; also moved comma to behind Gligar). Its Special Defense isn't anything to brag about either, leaving a crippling weak spot. ('isn't anything to write home about' sounds somewhat unprofessional and is at a different intensity with 'crippling weak spot'; I would suggest rewording this point, for example: 'This, along with its mediocre Special Defense, means that its overall bulk is uninvested.; tie in the previous point that)

Moves
========

Setting up multiple layers of Spikes is the main goal for lead Crustle. Shell Smash allows boosts Crustle's Attack, Special Attack, and Speed, which are useful for KO-ing (I checked the Grammar Standards but doesn't see this mentioned, but I feel that given the other standards, 'KOing' is the correct form) Defoggers that will come to clear your Spikes. Stealth Rock can be used over Shell Smash, as HP Ice with the given EV spread can 2HKO Gligar after SR, though (remove comma; add semicolon and comma) ; however, Shell Smash allows Crustle to OHKO Gligar (only with Stealth Rock from someone else; otherwise, it's only a 68% chance, so this point should be emphasized, especially since it's the main selling point of the set, and, as a lead, it won't typically be able to guarantee the OHKO). The Rock-type STAB move is there to hit Defog variants of Golbat and Togetic. Rock Blast is better for Focus Sash Accelgor, who also commonly sets up spikes, but Stone Edge can be used to hit with more ensure (suggest removing given Stone Edge's lower accuracy compared to Rock Blast; if you decide to keep it, it should be changed to 'ensured') power. X-Scissor can be used over Stone Edge to hit Shiftry super effectively, but it is not recommended unless you already carry something that can hit other Defoggers, especially Golbat, which are more common.

Set Details
========

The given EV spread is for maximizing maximizes damage against Gligar, which will often come in to use Defog away your hazards. Maximum Special Attack allows for a clean 2HKO after Stealth Rock damage, and an OHKO after a Shell Smash boost and Stealth Rock damage. The Mental Herb allows you to evade Taunt, which is important in a tier filled with Taunters Taunt users (keeping consistency with 'Taunt users' later on in the same sentence; suggested alternative, change both to 'Taunters') such as Cobalion, Drapion, Qwilfish, and Golbat, and Taunt users with Prankser such as Mega Banette, Whimsicott, and Liepard. The Lum Berry is useful for the many status users in the tier, (remove comma) that can hinder your ability to set up Spikes up (I know it's a phrasal verb, but it sounds better to me unbroken; this is a highly subjective edit, however) or KO Defoggers. Sturdy guarantees Crustle isn't OHKOed, which, along with the Mental Herb, almost ensures at least one layer of hazards.

Usage Tips
========

Make sure to set hazards up on turn one immediately (on turn one implies that only one layer of Spikes should be set), as not doing so could result in a wasted Mental Herb or Sturdy being activated, and setting them up is your main priority. After your Spikes are set up, your priority is to protect them. When using Shell Smash, don't leave Crustle vulnerable to being hit hard and revenge killed.

A defensive Crustle set exists, but it is strongly not recommended as it is in no way a viable set.

Checks & Counters

**Rhyperior**: Like Cincinno, many Rhyperiors carry Rock Blast and that can bypass Crustle's Sturdy and has a chance to OHKO. to OHKO it, depending on how many times Rock Blast hits (it only OHKOes cleanly if it hits 4 or more times; at 3, it only has a 6% chance to OHKO, so it has a 34% chance with a conservative estimate, so this could be mentioned in the last sentence) It also shrugs off Crustle's attacks thanks to a great ability, (add comma) in Solid Rock. It is slower than Crustle, however, and requires a decent roll to OHKO it. and will only OHKO roughly one third of the time.

Additional comments:
the Overview needs a bit more work in addition to the suggestions that I already made. There is nothing that really emphasizes why anyone would use Crustle over anything else. You mention that it has Shell Smash to take on Defoggers and protect its own hazards but then mention that Omastar (and a few non-leads) also have Shell Smash, which seems to invalidate that point; since it was suggested by someone else that you mention Barbaracle, don't remove this mention, but I would emphasize that Crustle can use Shell Smash not really to sweep, but rather to take down Defoggers and keep its entry hazards in tact. Later on, you do mention that it has high Defense and Sturdy, but by this point, it seems that they aren't enough to alleviate the concerns with why one should use Crustle.

To make my point more succinct, I would suggest putting an emphasis its reliability in setting up entry hazards with ease of setup due to its Sturdy ability and ensure their placement by being able to handle some common Defoggers on its own. This seems to be the main reason to use Crustle over anything else.

I would make a point to differentiate Omastar and Crustle, since it is listed twice in the overview. What differentiates Crustle from Omastar that would make anyone want to use it?

As an additional comment, it will also need a concluding sentence to tie all of the major points together.

Also, the Team Options seems rather bare. Are there any Pokemon that especially appreciate entry hazards, netting notable OHKOs or 2HKOs that they otherwise wouldn't or some typical sweepers that would in general benefit from entry hazards?
