I think specs only really works on a trick room team because otherwise, it is really frail. In a non trick room setting, I think it'd do better with more bulk, or at least, the ability to switch moves.

How, movepools or stats

Aside from movepool they have similar typing, but blastoise takes up a mega slot but it gets to use rapid spin. Their stat spreads are similar, with blastoise being significantly bulkier...but would u use a clawlitzer over a blastoise-m, if the mega slot is free?

The speed can be a completely significant factor. I personally would choose Clawitzer so I can abuse Assault Vest on a Trick Room team. (Thats how I do it.)

Clawitzer is a great pokemon, it just needs the right set-up. (Like every other pokemon out there)

How about support set for Doubles with Heal Pulse / Scald / Protect / Any other support move?

In my experience, Entrainment has proven itself to be especially useful in Doubles. If you present a more favorable target for Mega Kangaskan, you can easily shut her down by taking Parental Bond, and proceed to damage the switch in with scald, or heal your teammate who took the hit.

Other perks of Entrainment include shutting down Pixilate and Aerialite users (with decent HP investment, of course), Harvest Abusers, and apply general pressure to the opposing team to switch when hazards are down.

Sorry for necroposting.

I see no place for this thing in OU...this is an inferiour Blastoise.

Two things differentiate this guy from Blastoise: U-Turn, and the use of an item slot. With a ridiculous amount of support, it at least fills a niche. Also, Entrainment is just so amusing.

This is not to say that you're going to have a very easy time playing with it in OU, but to say it is an inferior Stoise, when the turtle would be NU this gen without Clawitzer's sweet lovin egg moves seems a bit harsh.
