    Pokémon Alola Marowak

    Fair enough, makes sense that it didn't perform well because of what my enemies were using. It's more of a check to top threats than a great standalone Pokemon is what it seems like here.

    Pokémon Palossand

    If you want to optimize this thing's potential you will probably want to run it in sand. Not sure what the purpose of running it in TR would be since there are a multitude of low speed powerhouses that would probably do a better job anyway.

    Pokémon Minior

    I love this Pokemon. Not only is it fun to look at, but it's also fun to use and fairly effective (Although to be fair, I'm using him in the battle tree more so than in actual competitive battles). I'm running shell smash, acrobatics, stone edge, and explosion and it's doing a fine job. Edit...

    Pokémon Alola Marowak

    I've heard some people bring up a flame charge set which I thought was silly. This thing can do well in VGC doubles with Lightningrod.

    Pokémon Alola Marowak

    I've tried this thing out on Showdown and it's very underwhelming. Even with flame charge it's still way too slow, and it's not very good at taking hits either even if you invest in bulk especially since it has a fair number of weaknesses. I don't know what tier it'll be but it'll certainly be...

    Pokémon Wishiwashi

    Why are you running max speed if it's meant to be used on a Trick Room team?

    Pokémon Mimikyu

    Darn I never realized WP didn't work with disguise. Also good point on Leech Life, it could be scrapped all together because it provides such insufficient coverage. Maybe Shadow Sneak or Wood Hammer over Leech Life because Leech Life definitely has really bad coverage. Other options seem to be...

    Pokémon Lycanroc

    Someone said No Guard Stone Edge is not worth the speed loss on midnight, and I absolutely agree. In fact the only move Midnight even has that significantly improves with No Guard is Stone Edge since the fangs have near perfect accuracy. Midday form is much better for sure, and even then it's...

    Pokémon Mimikyu

    I used Mimikyu a bit and I think this set would work pretty well. Mimikyu @ Lum Berry / Weakness Policy / Life Orb Ability: Disguise EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Swords Dance - Shadow Claw - Play Rough - Leech Life Edit: On second thought Leech Life should probably be slashed...

    Pokémon Wishiwashi

    That's all too true, what I meant by practically useless in my post was that once it's activated it makes the mon pretty useless. A secondary typing could definitely have helped him out a bit, especially if that second typing could offer it some useful resistances. I also think Aqua Jet would...

    Pokémon Araquanid

    I just can't imagine this thing actually accomplishing much in higher tiers unless you use Choice Band or something, but even in that instance why not use Azumarill instead? Azumarill will hit hard with Waterfall, Play Rough and Superpower while this thing will hit hard with Liquidation. I think...

    Pokémon Tsareena

    I've ran this thing in the battle tree and quickly realized that its offensive prowess is hindered greatly by insufficient move coverage. All you have to do is bring in a poison type and guess what: Trop Kick, Hi Jump Kick, Play Rough, U-Turn all walled. Fire also resists STAB and fairy, leaving...

    Pokémon Toxapex

    I'm using this set and it seems ideal enough. Toxapex @ Black Sludge Ability: Regenerator EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Toxic - Scald - Recover - Haze

    Pokémon Wishiwashi

    My thoughts on Wishiwashi are that it's a bit similar to Pokemon like Slaking, Regigigas, and Archeops and look at what tier those Pokemon are in. It's fat, strong, slow, and has an ability that makes it practically useless. It'll have a good place in one of the lower tiers for sure. A choice...
