[SET COMMENTS]
Spritzee is the only viable user of Wish in LC, allowing it to heal both itself and its teammates. Unfortunately, giving up two turns to use Wish and Protect in a metagame where maintaining momentum is important can be costly. Covet lets Spritzee potentially steal an Eviolite from switch-ins such as Ferroseed and Koffing once its own Eviolite has been removed. Alternatively, Psychic can be run to hit Poison-types, such as Koffing and Foongus, on the switch. 12 Speed EVs allow Spritzee to outspeed Foongus. Ferroseed partners well with Spritzee, as Spritzee checks Fighting-types and Natu for Ferroseed and offers Wish. In exchange, Ferroseed deals with certain Poison-type checks such as Foongus and can set entry hazards, punishing Pokemon that try to switch into Spritzee and force it out, such as Koffing and Ponyta. Psychic-types, such as Natu, and Pokemon with strong Psychic-type coverage, such as Porygon, are also good choices for dealing with Poison-types. Fighting-types, such as Mienfoo and Timburr, also pair well with Spritzee, as they can take advantage of the Steel-types Spritzee draws in and benefit from Wish healing.

[SET COMMENTS]
This set gives Spritzee the chance to act as a late-game sweeper. With no Speed investment, zero Speed IVs, and a Quiet nature, Spritzee hits 6 Speed, which lets it outspeed every relevant Pokemon under Trick Room. After a Nasty Plot boost, Psychic OHKOes Pokemon such as Koffing, Foongus, and Mareanie after Stealth Rock. Steel-types, such as Pawniard outside of Trick Room and Ferroseed, present issues for this set, so Spritzee benefits from teammates that can deal with them, such as Ponyta and Mienfoo. Mienfoo can also serve as a pivot to bring Spritzee into play through U-turn. Fire-types such as Ponyta also beat this set, so trappers such as Diglett and Trapinch make for good teammates. Trapinch itself can even take advantage of Trick Room.

Spritzee is the only viable user of Wish + Protect in Little Cup, giving it access to a decent form of recovery while also potentially allowing it to heal its teammates. Unfortunately, giving up two turns to use Wish and Protect in a metagame where maintaining momentum is important can be very costly.(Condense these two sentences down a bit, since they are a bit wordy.) Covet lets Spritzee potentially steal an Eviolite from switch-ins such as Ferroseed and Koffing once its own Eviolite has been Knocked Off removed. Alternatively, Psychic can be run to hit Poison-types, such as Koffing and Foongus, on the switch in. 12 Speed EVs allow Spritzee to outspeed Foongus. (Mention how 212 HP EVs allow Spritzee to pass 9 HP Wish.) Ferroseed partners well with Spritzee, as Spritzee checks Fighting-types and Natu for Ferroseed and offers more healing with Wish. In exchange, Ferroseed deals with certain Poison-type checks such as Foongus and can set entry hazards, punishing Pokemon that try to switch into Spritzee and force it out(name some examples). Psychic-types, such as Natu, and Pokemon with strong Psychic-type coverage, such as Porygon, are also good choices for dealing with Poison-types. Fighting-types, such as Mienfoo and Timburr, also pair well with Spritzee, as they can take advantage of the Steel-types Spritzee draws in and benefit from Wish healing. Both of these Pokemon also appreciate Spritzee's Wish.

This set gives Spritzee the chance to act as an offensive threat.(Be more specific, like "act as a late-game cleaner") With no Speed investment, zero Speed IVs, and a Quiet nature, Spritzee hits 6 Speed, which lets outspeed every relevant Pokemon under Trick Room. This means that, under Trick Room, Spritzee will be able to move before virtually every relevant Pokemon in Little Cup. After a Nasty Plot boost, Psychic OHKOes Pokemon such as Kofffing, Foongus, and Mareanie after Stealth Rock. Pokemon that can set up Stealth Rock, such as Onix, make for convenient teammates for this reason. Steel-types, such as Pawniard outside of Trick Room and Ferroseed, present issues for this set, so Spritzee benefits from teammates that can deal with them, such as Ponyta and Mienfoo. Mienfoo can also be useful as a means of bringing Spritzee into play through U-turn. Fire-types such as Ponyta also beat this set, so trappers such as Diglett and Trapinch make for good teammates. Trapinch itself can even take advantage of Trick Room.
