HP Rock Serperior

Core 3 Core 12

Just had a match against an unpleasant player on Showdown. On Team Preview, said player were complaining that I had legendaries in my team. He then had a stroke of good fortune as he hit 2 criticals and my Togekiss missed a crucial Air Slash and my Toxicroak missed its Gunk Shot. As I was...
