PU Grumpig (Mini) [QC 2/2] [GP 1/1]

[Drud]

uploaded-TONE
[OVERVIEW]
Grumpig could seem viable at first glance seeing as it has Thick Fat, a good Special Defense stat, and a decent enough movepool but falls flat in practice due to not being able hit hard, having no recovery, and being weak to physical attacks. Grumpig is also outclassed by other Psychic types that completely outclass Grumpig outside of Thick Fat such as Mesprit, which has way better offensive stats, and Musharna, which has good defensive stats and reliable recovery. Grumpig is also very weak to Pursuit, which stops it from running any defensive moveset.

[SET]
name: 3 Attacks
move 1: Psychic
move 2: Focus Blast
move 3: Shadow Ball
move 4: Calm Mind / Taunt / Thunder Wave
item: Colbur Berry / Fightinium Z
ability: Thick Fat
nature: Timid
evs: 80 HP / 252 SpA / 176 Spe

[SET COMMENTS]
This set attempts to be a wallbreaker with Calm Mind, as it has okay coverage but isn't strong enough to take advantage of that and thus is generally outclassed by other Calm Mind Psychic-types such as Mesprit and Musharna. One thing Grumpig has over both is Thick Fat, which allows it to deal with Aurorus and Jynx better, but that's not enough of a niche to justify using Grumpig over the other Calm Mind users.

[OVERVIEW]
Grumpig could seem viable at first glance seeing as it has Thick Fat, a good SpD stat and a decent enough movepool but falls flat in practice due to Grumpig being slow,(base 80 isnt that bad) doesn't hit hard, has no recovery and is weak to physical attacks. Grumpig is also outclassed by other Psychic types that can do the same thing but better such as Mesprit which has way better offensive stats and Musharna which has good defensive stats and reliable recovery.

[SET]
name: Calm Mind + 3 Attacks(CM is slashed tho so change set name)
move 1: Psychic
move 2: Focus Blast
move 3: Shadow Ball
move 4: Calm Mind/Taunt(need spaces between the slashes)(also maybe slash Twave)
item: Colbur Berry/Fightinium Z(same thing here)
ability: Thick Fat
nature: Timid
evs: 252 SpA / 176 Spe / 92 HP

[SET COMMENTS]
This set attempts to be a wallbreaker with Calm Mind as it has okay coverage,(again, cm is slashed, so bring up that it can be a support mon too) but isn't strong enough to take advantage of that and thus is generally outclassed by other Calm Mind psychic types such as Mesprit and Musharna. One thing Grumpig has over both is Thick Fat, which allows it to deal with Aurorus and Jynx better but other than that Mesprit and Musharna directly outclass it.

[OVERVIEW]

Grumpig could seem viable at first glance seeing as it has Thick Fat, a good SpD stat and a decent enough movepool but falls flat in practice due to Grumpig not being able hit hard, it has no recovery and is weak to physical attacks. Grumpig is also outclassed by other Psychic types that can do the same thing but better such as Mesprit *completely outclass it besides the ice and fire resist (because technically it doesnt do the same thing, it just happens to be similar while doing 70 other way more useful things) which has way better offensive stats and Musharna which has good defensive stats and reliable recovery. it's also complete pursuit bait which is a massive issue that stops it from running any kind of defensive set
