did you really believe salazzle would be a counter to comfey? you fool............. you utter fool. it takes far more than a puny x4 resistance to fairy to stop this behemoth.

Quagsire is really good against this Salazzle set because it resists Salazzle's STAB attacks, doesn't care about her setting up with Nasty Plot and can OHKO with Earthquake.

slowking does like 40 max with scald which lets comfey cm on its face. because comfeys a fairy slowking cant even phaze it with dtail. eventually this will happen: +6 252+ SpA Pixie Plate Triage Comfey Draining Kiss vs. 252 HP / 80 SpD Assault Vest Slowking: 180-213 (45.6 - 54%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Stealth Rock .
Pretty solid check to Slowking. Knock Off is Knock Off and it heavily threatens Slowking to the point where it might want to switch out, but you can also Pursuit trap it if you anticipate that to happen. If you're real, you switch directly in on Scald to revenge kill it.
hi my phone is about to die so ill make this quick also no pictures sorry!! anyways comfey beats this if u leech on the switch or if it subs on doublades sd. slow speed and no recovery=comfey kills the doub
Milotic is a hard counter to Doublade. Even if it switches in on an sd, it’s faster and can haze away the boost. Unboosted shadow claw only 5hkos and Milotic can 4hko back with scald and recover to keep itself healthy. There’s even scald burns for doublade to worry about. All in all, I’d say Milotic is a counter to doublade, as it has a hard time getting past it.
Quagsire comes in any move and doesnt care about doublade setting due to unaware. Quag 4HKOs with earthquake and recovers the damage done by doublade, Quag can also start using curse to sweep.
Standart smogon set does wonders against doublade. Foul play does good amount of damage even if doublade is unboosted, has 90% roll for 2HKO with 1 layer of spikes. Roost regains lost hp while taunt prevents more set up ( not that mandibuzz cares about it anyway but still) so its a quite good counter to it.
Moltres @ Rocky Helmet

- Flamethrower
- Substitute
- Toxic
- Roost
+3 180+ Atk Doublade Shadow Sneak vs. 248 HP / 44 Def Moltres: 157-186 (40.9 - 48.5%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery
Standard smogon set. Can take plus 3 sneak after rocks ( any from full) ohkos back with flamethrower after prior damage from helm.
Both scarf and ddance sets of flygon are capable of revenge killing dragalge from full hp. Earthquake and Outrage will give it a guaranteed kill unboosted. Flygon can also switch in one sludge wave and 3-4 hpfires safely , with levitate it also doesnt care about tox spikes.
