May I take on Vileplume? Vileplume may not appear as much at first glance, but it is certainly viable in RU. Vileplume has a very good typing and also has a very solid stat spread, with great overall bulk and a high 110 SpA. It also has reliable recovery in Synthesis and can utilize Sleep Powder better than a lot of Pokemon. Here's a calc that might help prove it as viable:
- 252+ Atk Life Orb Reckless Hitmonlee High Jump Kick vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Vileplume: 136-162 (38.4 - 45.7%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Stealth Rock and Black Sludge recovery
