Greninja is still the better Spikes lead over Froslass because of its better Speed and offensive presence:
-Spikes -Hydro Pump/Surf -Dark Pulse/Ice Beam -Hidden Power (Fire) Nature: Timid EVs: 4 Def/252 SAtk/252 Spe Item: Life Orb/Focus Sash A Life Orb cuts into Dragalge's good bulk. It's still better off using Black Sludge as its item. Dragon Tail also works well with the hazards you put in: -Toxic Spikes -Sludge Bomb -Dragon Tail -Surf/Hydro Pump/Thunderbolt Nature: Sassy EVs: 252 HP/40 Def/216 SDef Item: Black Sludge Ability: Poison Touch Assault Vest won't let Malamar use status moves, including Trick Room. If you want to use Assault Vest with Malamar, replace Trick Room with Rock Slide. Or, you can opt for any of these: -Night Slash -Psycho Cut/Substitute -Superpower -Topsy Turvy/Hypnosis/Light Screen Nature: Adamant EVs: 32 HP/252 Atk/224 SDef Item: Leftovers Ability: Contrary or -Rest -Sleep Talk -Night Slash -Superpower Nature: Careful EVs: 252 HP/4 Atk/252 SDef Item: Leftovers Ability: Contrary What's the deal with using Mime Jr. on the team as opposed to Mr. Mime? It's weaker and slower. Even then, Mr. Mime is only good for Baton Pass teams. Gardevoir is the better fit: -Calm Mind -Moonblast -Focus Blast -Shadow Ball/Thunderbolt Nature: Timid EVs: 4 HP/252 SAtk/252 Spe Item: Life Orb Ability: Trace or -Wish -Protect -Will-o-Wisp -Moonblast/Psychic Nature: Calm EVs: 252 HP/4 Def/252 SDef Item: Leftovers Ability: Trace or -Calm Mind -Moonblast/Psychic -Shadow Ball -Focus Blast Nature: Timid EVs: 4 HP/252 SAtk/252 Spe Item: Gardevoirite Ability: Trace You already have Dragalge setting up Toxic Spikes for you so I'd replace Drapion with something more useful, like Crobat, who has Defog to clear away hazards: -Brave Bird -Taunt -U-turn/Toxic -Roost Nature: Jolly EVs: 120 HP/136 Atk/252 Spe Item: Black Sludge Ability: Infiltrator or -Brave Bird -U-turn -Defog -Roost Nature: Jolly EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe Item: Black Sludge Ability: Infiltrator I don't know how defensive Arcanine fares in the current meta, tbh. I think that something like Super Size Gourgeist can prove useful, as its high Defense can help with the team, or Trevenant, who can keep itself alive very easily: Gourgeist (Super size): -Will-o-Wisp -Leech Seed -Protect/Pain Split -Seed Bomb/Shadow Sneak Nature: Impish EVs: 252 HP/4 Atk/252 Def Item: Leftovers Ability: Frisk Trevenant: -Horn Leech/Wood Hammer -Earthquake/Rock Slide -Will-o-Wisp -Rest Nature: Careful EVs: 252 HP/140 SDef/116 Spe Item: Leftovers/Lum Berry Ability: Natural Cure/Harvest or -Substitute -Leech Seed -Will-o-Wisp -Phantom Force Nature: Careful EVs: 252 HP/140 SDef/116 Spe Item: Sitrus Berry Ability: Harvest |
