Cacturne @ Leftovers 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HP Naughty/Lonely Water Absorb -Substitute -Focus Blast -Leech Seed -Sucker Punch Forces mind games and switches. Because of its low defense going mixed doesn't really cost it much and behind a Sub it gives you a large number of options. Can revenge...

Dustox gets Shield Dust and Compoundeyes which is a niche for it. For Whirlipede you probably mean an uninteresting Pokemon. It's reasonably bulky after Eviolite is applied. You forgot: Amoonguss, Swalot, and there are a few people who run around with Tentacool but I've never seen it.

Altaria also gets Natural Cure which should be mentioned and Cloud Nine lets it be a weather counter. Wartortle sucks. If you're going to spin go with something with at least good support options. Dragonair gets Shed Skin which should be noted. Mold Breaker does not disable Intimidate and...

The Trick Room set is actually a good set and works well on Trick Room teams with a sort of similar niche to Reuniclus. (Sorry about bringing him up but he is basically the poster boy for Gen V. Slower, and bulkier.) Or probably more relevant Exeggutor. Exeggutor has Sleep Powder which lets it...

Both Octillery and Wailord are amazing in Trick Room. They're both exceptionally slow and Wailord has a powerful Water Spout while Octillery possesses amazing coverage.

Misdreavus In a tier devoid of choice for defensive Ghost type Pokemon Misdreavus' 60/60/85 defences are not stellar but enhanced by Eviolite become bulky indeed. Acting as one of the only spin blocker in NU Misdreavus is a common sight on teams, gaining perfect coverage with Shadow Ball and HP...

Why not just use a Focus Sash if you've countercoating as a lead?

You've totally under estimated Exploud. It has 91/91/68 offenses which are fairly mediocre but with a scarf it's faster than Swellow. It's got a massive movepool and can easily go mixed. Its movepool filled with high power moves which lets it hit hard even with its limited attacking stats...

Beheeyem is a Psychic type Pokémon introduced in Gen V. He is a moderately bulky Psychic who is exceptionally slow however hits like a truck with 125 SpA. Stats: HP 75 Atk 75 Def 75 SpA 125 SpD 95 Spe 40 It's stats basically determine the EVs. SpA and HP are maximised and the only question...

Ah brain fart there. I knew the ability absorbed water attacks and just thought it was storm drain. It is more of a general overview of Cacturne than a trick room specific analysis. I guess most of the Rock / Steels down in NU are heavy so Low Kick is fairly strong. I think Cacturne's more...

Thought I'd copy and paste my post from the Trick Room thread. 'Cacturne is blessed with sky high attacking stats on both sides of spectrum allowing it to easily go mixed. Unfortunately it's 115/115 attacking stats are held back by 55 speed. Luckily this makes it perfect for Trick Room...

I wrote up Cacturne. Last paragraph is less applicable to Trick Room. Cacturne is blessed with sky high attacking stats on both sides of spectrum allowing it to easily go mixed. Unfortunately it's 115/115 attacking stats are held back by 55 speed. Luckily this makes it perfect for Trick Room...
