So the Big one is that Pursuit+Ice Shard is
ILLEGAL. I thought it would be overpowered to be able to beat a pokemon wheter it switches, attacks, or uses secondary moves.
Fun Reasoning Time!
Encore: THE most effective way to punish secondary users. No one wants to be locked in on a SR or T-Wave while Colossoil picks away at you. Encore forces switches like no other move, giving Colossoil time to Rapid Spin, or just pick off the incoming opponent.
Rapid Spin: This move is needed for Colossoil to stand a chance against entry hazards, which are the most annyoing secondary moves.
Crunch: Its STAB... what do you expect?
Fire Moves: These really aren't very good on Colossoil, but if your really having trouble against Tangrowth or Skarmory. Also of note, I don't see any problem withthis having both fire and ice moves. The are both quite specialized anyway.
Surf: Really, REALLY useless. Its a mediocre offensive type, and it comes from bad SpA.
Heal Bell: I see no reason not to include this, as Colossoil already deals with Status well enough. It is a waste of a turn anyway.
Ice Shard: It has a really low BP. A SE Ice Shard is only 5 BP better than a resisted EQ. Why would this be an issue?
Cool Flavour moves:
Dive-Its a fish, and it is often under the surface.
Present-Who knows what Colossoil is hiding in that hole of its.
EDIT: I just relized I left out something. Ironically, it is M
oves I left out.
E-Fangs-I was against putting in Thunder Fang which prevents Gyarados from being a solid counter, and I considered Ice Shard to outclass Ice Fang, making it really useless. That only left Fire Fang, which is only a mediocre choice on Colossoil, and including it would likely mean that I would have to leave something like Encore out. Therefore, none of the fangs make an appearance.
Megahorn/Drill Peck-I like Tangrowth as a solid check for physical variants (most likely all of them), and these two don't support that. ALos, similary to FFang, these would take up a spot that could be better used. Overall, both these moves were extreneous, and I decided against them.
Selfdestruct- Considering his high attack and ability to kill most ghost types with ease, I thoought this would be overpowered. Not to mention there would be little more annoying than finally getting the Guts variant down to 10% HP and having it outspeed and go boom.
Moonlight-If you plan on using Colossoil in SS, this is useless. If you are outside of SS, this could be overpowering. I didn't vote for it, so I didn't include him.
Fake Out-I really wanted to include this... but I had no room. (;_;)
