VGC Pawmot

[Sole Survivor]

[OVERVIEW]

* Pawmot has a strong niche in being one of only two Pokemon with a potentially game-winning tool in Revival Blessing. It is preferred over Rabsca thanks to its high Speed and better offensive typing, hitting Pokemon such as Murkrow, Meowscarada, and Hydreigon for OHKOs or near OHKOs. This, combined with its access to Fake Out, makes Pawmot useful offensively in addition to bringing Revival Blessing.

* Powerful teammates such as Dondozo, when paired with Tatsugiri's Commander, and Meowscarada particularly appreciate Pawmot's Revival Blessing, as it gives them another opportunity at denting opposing teams. Choice Band Meowscarada pairs particularly well with Pawmot, as it can hit the only relevant Ground-type in Garchomp with both Flower Trick and Play Rough. Pawmot, in return, covers the few Pokemon that can handle Meowscarada's STAB moves, such as Hydreigon—even when it Terastallizes into a typing such as Steel.

* Such Pawmot teams can, however, be vulnerable to well-played dual screens teams, which nullify most of the offensive presence from Pawmot's allies, even after it revives one of them. In particular, Pawmot teams must bring Pokemon and moves that can beat Amoonguss, which can be used on these teams.

[SET COMMENTS]

* Revival Blessing is an extremely invaluable tool that lets Pawmot revive crucial teammates such as Dondozo and Meowscarada, very likely turning the battle in the user's favor. It is Pawmot's most important move, but an attack is slotted first in case the timer forces Pawmot to use its first move. Double Shock is better here if Pawmot Terastallizes into the Electric typing, which lets it repeatedly use the move without drawback or failure. If running the Fighting Tera type or not Terastallized, Close Combat is better in this moveslot.

* Focus Sash, in tandem with Pawmot's high Speed, ensures it gets at least two moves off if it is not double targeted.

* Volt Absorb synergizes with Electric-weak teammates such as Dondozo, while Natural Cure allows Pawmot to brush off status moves such as Amoonguss's Spore.

* Both the Electric and Fighting Tera types provide offensive benefits to Pawmot, turning an attack into a reliable source of damage against a plethora of common Pokemon such as Murkrow, Dondozo, and/or Hydreigon. The Electric Tera type lets it use Double Shock repeatedly, which avoids the drawback of Close Combat lowering its defenses, turning it into a potent cleaner.

[OVERVIEW]

* Pawmot has a strong niche in being one of only two Pokemon which have access to a potentially game-winning tool in Revival Blessing. It has a good offensive typing, hitting Pokemon Murkrow, Meowscarada, and Hydreigon for OHKOs or near OHKOs. This combined with its access to Fake Out makes it a Pokemon capable of both immensely supporting its team defensively while also serving as a useful tool offensively.

* Teammates such as Dondozo, when paired with Tatsugiri's Commander, and Meowscarada particularly appreciate Pawmot's Revival Blessing as they are given another opportunity at denting opposing teams with their Commander-boosted stats and Choice Band Flower Tricks, respectively. Choice Band Meowscarada pairs particularly well with Pawmot as it can hit the only relevant Ground-type in Garchomp with both Flower Trick and Play Rough while Pawmot, in return, covers for the few Pokemon that can handle Meowscarada's STABs such as Hydreigon, even when it is Terastallized to a type such as Steel. (Maybe a touch wordy here, if there's anything we can trim that would be great) These Pawmot compositions can, however, be vulnerable to well-played dual screens teams which include Amoonguss, so one must be careful in their choice of Pokemon and moves. (Would consider making this its own point)

* Revival Blessing is an extremely invaluable tool which lets Pawmot revive crucial teammates such as Dondozo and Meowscarada, very likely turning the battle in the user's favor.

* Focus Sash in tandem with Pawmot's high Speed ensures it gets at least two moves off if it is not double targeted. The two moves can include any combination of Fake Out and the other three moves, usually Revival Blessing. (The two moves you can click are two moves on this set. Nice!)

* Volt Absorb synergizes well with Electric-weak teammates such as Dondozo, while Natural Cure allows Pawmot to brush off status such as Amoonguss's Spore.

* Both the Electric and Fighting Tera Types provide offensive benefits to Pawmot, turning its attacks into a reliable source of damage against a plethora of common Pokemon such as Murkrow, Dondozo, and Hydreigon.
