What are some good mons to pair up with Sliggoo? I'm thinking something to cover the Ice and Fairy weaknesses and something that beats most Knock Off users, but I don't know which ones would work.
Steelix doesnt mind taking knock offs and can handle Fairies. Also Garbodor can do both and can also deal with Physical threats like Sawk that threaten Sligoo. Also fighting types like AV Chan or AV Yama can take Ice type attacks and Knock Offs for SLigoo but they have to watch out for Jynx however SLigoo can be so Specially bulky that Sash Jynx's Ice beam cant 2hko Curse Sligoo, it runs Rest Talk so it doesnt mind Lovely Kiss and Outrage almost OHKO's Jynx back.What are some good mons to pair up with Sliggoo?

Every Dark-type in the tier apart from Skuntank gets absolutely wrecked by a modestly powerful Signal Beam, so usually running Signal Beam + Colbur Berry on a decently powerful Psychic-type like Mesprit or Musharna is enough to draw in and KO a Dark-type. Ghost-types that run Will-O-Wisp + Colbur Berry such as Mismagius or Rotom can also draw in Dark-types and neuter them (including Skuntank) so that they can switch out and let a teammate clean up. Specs Beheeyem with Analytic is particularly notable for being able to OHKO Skuntank if it tries to switch in using Hidden Power Ground, but as it's only ever used for this power, you might struggle to actually lure it in this way against an experienced opponent.What is a good lure for dark types in NU?
