I just have one thing to say. The gameplay is great but the translation is faulty.
Not sure if the original game is like this but all the characters seem very robotic. The way the talk seems too exact to be believable and there are small flaws in their logic that make the game unplayable to me...
@Platnum Dude,
You're missing the point. I tried to make a moveset and strategy AROUND punching. If you replace all of the punches... it's no longer an Elemental Punching Snorlax. And the whole point of that Absol is to make up for his lackluster attack stat with a high critical hit ratio...

@PlatinumDude, I see what you're saying about low sweep but with no EV's in SAtk, you'd be lucky to to take out 1/3 of their heath with flamethrower. U-Turn would be a better option so you could remove him from battle and switch to a pokemon that is better suited for a steel type. Especially...

Before we get started, however, I’d like to explain how this is going to work. I will be making a thread featuring 3 Non-Uber Pokemon with...
Oh, okay haha. How about, I won't post one until a week has gone by or the last one I made gets 150 views?
EDIT: Actually, just forget about that. Go to this link: https://www.pokecommunity.com/posts/6842266 And tell me what you think of it.
Those Gems... Are pretty horrible for Sweeping. You're better off with Life Orbs because they power up ALL moves and aren't one time use. And I see that you're Absol is good for Crit-Hits so I'd recommend a scope lens instead.
I like your moveset except Aerial Ace is almost necessary on him. Also, I never Forgot about Nasty Plot Zoroark but it's so common, putting it here would be reinventing the wheel and is super predictable which isn't good on a pokemon based on surprising / Hit and running. I might update it with...
I also agree but this Umbreon is designed to take a few hits and TRAP THE OPPONENT while setting up. If substituting is a big issue then simply switch out. The strategy is to trap a sweeper in battle, set up until the brink of death, and sweep with a really fast sweeper. Good point though ^_^
That Snorlax is not as good as you may think. I suggest a much simpler but more effective version.
