<h3>Carracosta</h3>
<img src="/download/sprites/bw/127.png" alt="" />
<p><strong>Typing:</strong> Water / Rock<br />
<strong>Base Stats:</strong> 74 HP / 108 Atk / 133 Def / 83 SpA / 65 SpD / 32 Spe<br />
<strong>Abilities:</strong> Solid Rock / Sturdy / Swift Swim</p>
<p>Carracosta has one the best setup moves in the game in Shell Smash, which lets it become one of the best physical or mixed sweeper in RU. A base 108 Attack and 83 Special Attack aren't anything to laugh at when they can easily take down physically bulky Pokemon. Carracosta is difficult to revenge kill because of Aqua Jet, which can easily knock out frail offensive Pokemon. STAB Stone Edge and Waterfall are available to power through defensive Pokemon, Ice Beam is also used to take down Grass-type Pokemon like Tangrowth, which could otherwise take on Carracosta. Two helpful abilities, Solid Rock and Sturdy, aid it when setting up. With Solid Rock, Carracosta can live some attacks that would've otherwise KOed. On the other hand, Sturdy guarantees a Shell Smash setup opportunity if it hasn't been broken. Carracosta's coverage doesn't range every far because Pokemon like Poliwrath and Quagsire can take Carracosta even after setup.</p>
<h3>Pinsir</h3>
<img src="/download/sprites/bw/647.png" alt="" />
<p><strong>Typing:</strong> Bug<br />
<strong>Base Stats:</strong> 65 HP / 125 Atk / 100 Def / 55 SpA / 70 SpD / 85 Spe<br />
<strong>Abilities:</strong> Hyper Cutter / Mold Breaker / Moxie</p>
<p>Pinsir now has the Moxie ability, which lets it truly unleash its fury. After a Swords Dance boost, Pinsir can take down any defensive Pokemon down with X-Scissor or Earthquake, and offensive Pokemon aren't safe either thanks to Quick Attack. Pinsir becomes increasingly dangerous the more KOs it gets because its Attack will skyrocket thanks to Moxie. Pinsir can also be seen utilizing a Choice Scarf set, which is a dangerous end-game sweeper, because of the Moxie snowball effect. Pinsir's biggest weakness is its Bug-typing and relatively low Speed, which can be targeted by faster Pokemon like Aerodactyl and Galvantula, and weakness to Stealth Rock doesn't do it any favors either.
