Set Description
=============
Explain what the set's moves, items, and abilities are for, whenever it isn't blatantly clear.

Usage Tips
=============
Against Spectrier, Primarina should use Encore Turn 1, then Icy Wind three times. Primarina should then use Encore when Encore runs out of turns, and attack with Moonblast in the free turns this generates. However, if Spectrier uses Hex Turn 1, you should wait for the appropriate turn to use a Torrent boosted Hydro Cannon in order to OHKO Spectrier.
