Toxapex provides valuable toxic spikes support for reuniclus on bulkier teams, crippling the pursuiters as well as other checks such as tapu bulu and gastrodon. In the case where pex cannot poison them, it is able to wear them down with potential scald burns. The two also possess solid defensive synergy, as reuniclus is one of the best answers to the psychics that scare toxapex out, most notably mega medicham and mega latios. In return, toxapex checks the greninjas, scizors and volcaronas that scare reuniclus before it can setup enough to bypass them.
