won 2-0, close and good games.

I have an offensive combo that I built my current team on, I haven't seen it used elsewhere: CB Virizion and SubSalac Scolipede: Virizion @ Choice Band Trait: Justified EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Jolly Nature - Close Combat - Leaf Blade - Stone Edge - Hidden Power [Ice] Scolipede @...
