TYPE: Poison
PROS:
- Weaknesses covered by those with immunities (Drapion, Levitators, Crobat)
- Has some of the fastest Pokes in the meta (Gengar, Scolipede, Crobat)
- Toxic immune
- Wicked mixed coverage
- Can use Black Sludge over Leftovers to screw over Trick users
- Plenty of support options, all well equipped with entry hazards
- Does pretty well in both rain (Tentacruel, Toxicroak) and sun (Venusaur)
- Spore user (Amoonguss)
CONS:
- Limited in typing combinations
- Weezing and Tentacruel are the only viable walls against Physical and Special sweepers respectively
- Only Natural Cure Roserade and Shed Skin Arbok can comfortably switch into status
- Only spinner is Tentacruel
- Only members immune to sandstorm are the Nidos
- Pretty much open to Psychic sweep without a Dark-type
- Can't deal with Rock or Dragon attacks outside of "switch to lone wall".
