PU Roselia [QC 1/1] GP: Done


Roselia @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 248 HP / 236 SpD / 24 Spe
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Spikes
- Giga Drain
- Sludge Bomb
- Synthesis

Previously grossly overshadowed, Roselia now has solid utility in PU thanks to its typing, bulk, and reliable recovery, checking Jellicent, Lilligant, and Omastar. Spikes have always been a dominant force, but what separates Roselia from other Spikes setters its amazing type synergy with the aforementioned Jellicent, a metagame-defining threat that pressures teams immensely with Roselia's support. These traits allow Roselia to form unique team compositions that take advantage of Spikes-stacking while also forming solid defensive synergy within its cores. Unfortunately, Roselia's physical bulk is poor, and its otherwise good typing is taken advantage of by certain hazard removers like Alolan Sandslash, Rotom-Frost, and Skuntank. It mandates teammates that cover these weaknesses as a result, so Pokemon like Mudsdale, Lanturn, and Gurdurr help defensively check and threaten these foes.

Previously grossly overshadowed, Roselia now has solid utility in PU thanks to its typing, bulk, and reliable recovery,(AC) to checking Jellicent, Lilligant, and Omastar. Spikes have always been a dominant force, but what separates Roselia from other Spikes setters its amazing is having the best typing type synergy with the aforementioned Jellicent, a metagame-defining threat that pressures teams immensely with it Roselia's support. These traits allow it Roselia to form unique team compositions that take advantage of Spikes-stacking (don't miss this) while also forming solid defensive synergy among within its cores. Unfortunately, Roselia's physical bulk is poor, and its otherwise good typing is taken advantage of by certain hazard removers like Alolan Sandslash, Rotom-Frost, and Skuntank. It mandates teammates that cover these weaknesses as a result, so Pokemon like Mudsdale, Lanturn, and Gurdurr help defensively check and threaten them these foes.
