Smeargle: Was it worth it?

[oogly]

I've been training my smeargle for a while but I'm thinking I should replace it. I know it's a long shot pokemon anyway but I was wondering what others think. I was able to teach it some great moves since smeargle is the only one that knows sketch, but I'm afraid that because of its low stats that it wasn't worth my time. Anyway, here it is.

Smeargle @Quick Claw
Ability: Technician
Lonely Nature

Psychic
Blizzard
Gunk Shot
Stun Spore

Honestly, I don't think it's worth it. Smeargle will get destroyed in one hit and will inflict very low damage due to it low attack and special attack. I've also seen baton passing Smeargles, Mirror Coat/Counter Smeargles and swords dance/explosion/focus sash Smeargles, but a normal sweeping Smeargle isn't gonna work very well.

The only thing Smeargle is worth for in.game is to bacome a catcher, Eving it in speed and Atk, and giving him False Swipe, Sleep Powder, mean look and ingrain to stay alive. This was the only good use i've seen smeargle do in-game.

If you can pass smeargle in to agility, calm mind or swords dance then maybe he'll work. Otherwise you can kiss the little doggie goodbye.

smeargle always works best as a setup pokemon with attacks like spore, baton pass, agility, swords dance, substitute, and belly drum. XD
