G1 notes: Horsea has been neglected by everyone, including me. So I was always trying to figure out the perfect team, and it took me two weeks to be satisfied with one. I had Gastly over Duskull, but the problem was that Gastly sucks ass vs Exeggcute and Exegg + Spikes made it extremely difficult for me to find the right mon. Out of the options, it was either Rain Dance Taillow(why does this thing learn weather moves) or Duskull, a mon I had difficulty bringing. Fortunately, making its max speed(12) lets it get the sequences right vs 11 Speed Exeggcute, and by some chip Exegg is losing vs Ice Beam Horsea. Tbh -atk or -sp atk may not matter that much for me, I just felt like -atk bc I wanted that ice beam to more chip vs Doduo, Lileep, and DD mons. Wailmer is designed to kill every Wailmer set with Icy Wind + Self Destruction, though there exists a more optimal set(116 atk tl;dr).
G2 notes: Just some Trapinch Balance ft Chinchou lead. I like this team because the synergy of Chinchou + Will O Wisp Gastly + Magnemite(that sets up behind Lileep w/o breaking the sub) is strong vs current archetypes of Lileep, Snubbull, and Wailmer. Everyone else are there to keep a check on the endgame mons tbh.
Also, teams I forgot to post last week.
