LC Problem

[Spenstar]

On the Little Cup Banlist, Trapinch is not listed as one of the banned Pokemon. And yet, its analysis is strictly NU.

Reasons to use Trapinch in LC:

*Can serve a similar role to Diglett but sacrifices speed for offensive power.
*Has a very powerful (for LC anyway) base 100 ATK
*Arena Trap.

IK that was redundant, but still...

IMO the only thing that really needs to be changed is the tier from NU to NFE, as it is technically an NFE pokemon. Once an LC analysis is written up for Trapinch, the intro can be changed to reflect that it is viable in both NU and LC.

Edit: woah, nath'd
