"Stat boosting moves are nice in-game, but they've been nerfed quite a bit in ASB. Fake Tears and Nasty Plot together only increase your damage by a flat 8 damage per action, which is pretty lackluster, considered you spent two turns to set those moves up. Turns that could've been spent attacking instead.

Controlling your matchups is very important here. If you current Pokemon doesn't do well against your current opponent, then your first priority should be to escape the bad matchup. My recommendation would've been to stall with Protect | Mean Look | Protect, then switch to Torchic, who would roast Sneasel. Instead, you're left here in a bad matchup. You could switch, but then you'd have wasted your set up moves, and I would counterswitch, so I wouldn't recommend it.

How will you handle this situation? Do you think you can get some extra credit?"

[Yoshiblaze]

"Oh wow. Well, noted then. I guess fake crying never got anyone anywhere.

I'm in a bit of a predicament like you said. Maybe this'll work?"

Incinerate | Protect | Incinerate

IF Sneasel is under the effect of a Proctetive move, THEN use Nasty Plot that action
IF Vullaby is taunted when it would use Protect, THEN use Incinerate

 

[Ooraloo]

"If you use Protect ordering first, what do you expect me to do?
A. Continue to attack for some reason.
B. Forfeit.
C. Set up using the free action you give me.

"If you picked "C," then you'd see why using Protect in your main orders ordering first is generally a bad idea. It really doesn't help you at all."
