I don't need a Skarm Counter per se, but yes, Magnezone is THE BEST Skarm counter. But Probopass has its perks, and I'm not limiting him to just Skarm. I can actually imagine it getting to Bliss, too. I first thought of giving it Toxic, but then I realized that Blissey can Heal Bell or Aromatherapy even if I Blocked her. I decided to give him Rollout instead. I also love Magnet Rise here. I might use this in a team...

It can't really be a Blissey counter since it will easily get raped by Seismic Toss. Personally I don't like Earth Power much since a special ground attack isn't very appealing in D/P. The mixed wall you posted might work.

if you're gonna try and trap Blissey, Magnet Rise is a wasted moveslot. Better to include something like Explosion, to take it down fast after trapping and T-bolting the metal bird. Although Block probably won't work on Blissey, since they are likely to throw something like Heatran or a faster Ground type (Dugtrio). Hmm, maybe Magnet Rise is worth it, even if you can't do much afterwards

Earth Power is useful to have to anticipate Electivire switch ins who think that you'll Thunderbolt instead.

Err, yeah... I hadn't thought of that. Regardless, I think Probopass is a very underrated Pokemon (and with good reason. He looks so goofy)...
