Frillish @ Eviolite
Ability: Cursed Body
Level: 5
EVs: 236 HP / 196 Def / 76 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Hex
- Will-O-Wisp
- Recover
- Scald
Thanks to its great special bulk and typing, Frillish stands out in LC as a check to powerful offensive threats like Choice Scarf Vulpix, Choice Scarf Porygon, and Abra. Frillish is one of the best Pokemon for handling devastating Fire spam cores that consist of Vulpix + Ponyta + Charmander, as it is a Fire-resistant wall that cannot be trapped by Diglett and Trapinch. Frillish is able to spread burns with Will-O-Wisp and Scald, which cripples switch-ins like Ferroseed and Pawniard and empowers its Hex. Cursed Body synergizes with Recover, making Frillish difficult to handle and able to beat threats like Foongus and Staryu one-on-one by disabling their super effective attack. Frillish's Dark weakness makes it advisable to pair Frillish with Knock Off absorbers like Mienfoo, Timburr, and Pawniard. They can also weaken its checks like Foongus and Ferroseed with Knock Off, making Hex even more threatening. Koffing is another notable partner that can help Frillish make progress against Regenerator cores with Neutralizing Gas and spread burns with Will-O-Wisp.
