Set Description
=========

Snorlax can run more offensive moves over Rest, changing the dynamics of how it is played entirely. Unboosted Double-Edge 3HKOes Mewtwo, Mew, and Zapdos while giving Snorlax a consistently strong option against opposing Snorlax. Body Slam is an option if spreading paralysis on checks like Tyranitar, Steelix, Skarmory, and Golem is preferred; unfortunately, the drop in damage is very noticeable, as Snorlax cant 3HKO the aforementioned Pokemon and can no longer threaten opposing Snorlax in the mirror matchup. However, Snorlax can KO Skarmory and Lugia with Self-Destruct more easily if they switch into Body Slam and gets paralyzed. Curse Snorlax is both offensively threatening, as +1 Double-Edge can 2HKO Zapdos, Mew, and Mewtwo and also 2HKO Cloyster after chip damage, and defensively impenetrable. Belly Drum can be used instead if more immediate power is desired; +6 Snorlax can consistently OHKO the entire metagame aside from a few select Pokemon like Skarmory and Lugia, and even Lugia has a change of getting OHKOed by +6 Double-Edge. Earthquake hits Rock- and Steel-type checks like Tyranitar, Golem, Rhydon, and Steelix. It is worth noting that every listed check gets OHKOed by +6 Earthquake, so paralyzing them with Body Slam lets Snorlax take them down with ease. This allows Snorlax to play a supportive role by weakening checks to teammates such as offensive Mewtwo. Running Self-Destruct trades Rest's consistency and the ability to check Zapdos with the ability to annihilate even the bulkiest of Pokemon, like Skarmory and Lugia, after a boost. Snorlax can also lure and remove Zapdos and opposing Snorlax with Self-Destruct for its teammates. Lovely Kiss can be an option over Self-Destruct to give Snorlax a tool to put opposing Pokemon to sleep, potentially allowing it to power through its checks with boosted attacks.


Team Options
========

Restless Snorlax commonly sees itself on more offensive teams, as it cannot consistently switch into threats like Zapdos and wall them due to the lack of Rest. It should be used to wallbreaker, hopefully trading two-for-one against the opponent with Lovely Kiss and Self-Destruct. Pokemon like Jolteon, Vaporeon, Heracross, and Lugia are good partners for Self-Destruct Snorlax, as they benefit from Snorlax weakening their checks like Skarmory, Zapdos, and opposing Snorlax. Cloyster sets Spikes for Snorlax and provides its own Explosion to complement the offense. Other Pokemon with access to Self-Destruct or Explosion, like Mewtwo, Mew, Gengar, Steelix, Golem, and Exeggutor, are also good partners.


[SET]
name: DrumLax
move 1: Body Slam / Return
move 2: Belly Drum
move 3: Rest
move 4: Lovely Kiss / Earthquake
item: Leftovers

[SET COMMENTS]
Set Description
=========

Belly Drum provides Snorlax with the most immediate offensive power possible, giving it the possibility of destryoing teams with very little effort. Body Slam is preferred over Double-Edge due to Double-Edge's recoil forcing Snorlax to use Rest more often and wasting turns. Body Slam spreads paralysis on faster foes like Mewtwo, Cloyster, and Tyranitar, leaving room for Snorlax to potentially ov erpower them later af ter Belly Drum. Return is an option over Body Slam if more damage is preferred; Return has chances to 3HKO Zapdos, one of the few Pokemon that can threaten Snorlax with Thunder. Lovely Kiss helps Snorlax beat Pokemon like Skarmory, which gives it trouble even at +6 Attack, and it can also deny Spikes from Cloyster and Forretress and phazing from Lugia, Tyranitar, and the aforementioned Skarmory. Earthquake can be used instead to give Snorlax an option to OHKO Rock- and Steel-types like Tyranitar and Golem and Steelix after one round of Spikes damage; Earthquake also allows Snorlax to hit counters like Gengar and Misdreavus. Lastly, Rest gives Snorlax much needed longevity and allows it to use Belly Drum again later in the battle.

Team Options
========

DrumLax fits on teams that can spread paralysis and need an immediately wallbreaker, meaning it can fit on both offensive and defensive teams. Offensive teams can support a DrumLax sweep with teammates like Thunder Wave Mew, Thunder Wave Mewtwo, Thunder Wave Zapdos, Tyranitar, and Cloyster; Tyranitar removes Steel- and Ghost-types that can annoy Snorlax if it is not running Earthquake with Fire Blast and crunch, respectively, while Cloyster sets S pikes for DrumLax to net certain KOs against Pokemon like Steelix. On more defensive builds, teammates like Barrier Mewtwo, Celebi, Lugia, and Skarmory can switch into threatening attacks for Snorlax. Paralysis spreaders like Starmie, Steelix, Blissey, and the rarer Miltank are also good teammates to help DrumLax overcome its middling Speed. Spinners like Forretress, Cloyster, and Golem are appreciate, since Spikes hurt DrumLax's ability to set up.
