I think that with no Absol, not only will Skuntank be needed for Musharna but CB Golurk could maybe rise in usage too as an option for those who don't necessarily wanna use Skuntank, seeing as it can still deal a lot of damage towards what switches into it (and , given they don't have levitate/flying/normal typing). Offensive in general would probably rise, like Zangoose, Braviary and so on because there's less to take on the more defensive Pokemon that Emboar can help take out. Swellow idk, I think probably Braviary would rise to cover for what Swellow had although the two are different, but when it comes to flying types that's about the close to it as there is. As for the others, Whimsicott won't really pose any threat to the sap sippers and due to it not having another secondary typing unlike Exeggutor that is of use and can help it get through some of the common sap sippers/grass types. But... since it doesn't have that I don't see it being too much of an issue as grass types (or at least ones with secondary typings) are commonly seen in most teams. idk much about the ones from RU, so ya ;(
