Doubles Crobat

Crobat @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Inner Focus
EVs: 240 HP / 84 SpD / 184 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Brave Bird
- Super Fang
- Taunt
- Tailwind

This notorious cave inhabitant has a solid role as a speedy Tailwind setter in DOU! Its extremely high Speed allows it to get the jump on most other Tailwind setters in the tier, such as Mew and Naganadel, while Inner Focus prevents it from being flinched by Fake Out, allowing Crobat to guarantee Tailwind in most situations. Taunt can block opposing speed control, making the advantage brought upon by its own Tailwind more concrete. In addition, Crobat takes advantage of the most common Pokemon in DOU, Rillaboom, as it isn't even remotely threatened by it and uses it as an opportunity to set Tailwind or fire off attacks. Crobat also has decent offensive presence due to Brave Bird threatening common Pokemon like Urshifu-R and the aforementioned Rillaboom, while Super Fang can give consistent chip, which can help Crobat's teammates break past bulkier Pokemon like Porygon2. Offensive Pokemon like Landorus, Urshifu-R, and Heatran are great partners for Crobat, as they appreciate it reliably setting Tailwind as well as helping them break down the opposing team with Super Fang. In addition to that, all three are match up well into Diancie, who threatens to either set Trick Room or deal significant damage to Crobat, both of which can spell disaster for Crobat's team.

 

[Idyll]

• Name the other Tailwind setters that it outruns
• Talk about Taunt. Preventing opposing speed control is also a signficant niche that's unmentioned here. Could shorten the line for attacks and / or cut the Fake Out partners line (because Crobat has been more of an option in PsySpam anyway) to make space for this.
• If the above gives a surplus of space, mention the recommended teammates being good into Diancie as well (and ad Ursh while you're at it). To be honest, this is more important than Fake Out partners, anyway.

1/1
