Quick question about the mechanics behind White Herb. Curious about If the stat needs to get into negative and if it actives when baton passed.
Scenario 1: Scizor with White Herb used swords dance, opponent switched into Gyarados with intimidate. This would leave my Scizor on +1 or does the...
The smergle set looks kinda fun I'm unsure as to exactly how the mechanics of White Herb work though.
For example If my poke has +2 attack and then intimidated to just +1 attack and then batton passes to a white herb poke does this new poke realise that a drop happened and active its white herb...

I'll start by saying that this is not a competitive strategy as it can be torn apart by pretty much any power team. That being said this pair can be quite fun and tends to do pretty well against teams that need to set up as they only get to use one of their pokemon each turn...
I've tried the power trick suckle before but it tends to get pwned before or just after it took down one of the opponents. Priority attacks = shuckle death
If you did want to use it i would advise having a trick roomer that is immune to earthquake
After tailwind nothing except scarfed pokemon and priority moves will go before bibarel. Neither of those two tend to be using status moves and choice scarfs in doubles is pretty rare. Zapdos = threat so he usually goes down on that second turn with the last resort before he gets a chance to hit...
Here is a doubles stratergy i've been using on wifi just for kicks, its fun to see uber noobs fall from my Bibarel
