    I struggle with:

    • Shandera
    • Pantslizard
    • Landlos
    • Magic Guard (specifically Rankurusu but I guess he's called the "Stall-Killer" for a reason)
    • Broken ubers like Manaphy and Shaymin

    Dusclops: it's easy Taunt bait, so even though its offense is nearly non-existent, I'd go with Shadow Punch over Curse because you kill off some of your bulk with Curse. If you want to go the double-status route, use Toxic.

    me said:
    Curse is a strange move and one not often seen as many people think its gimmicky on ghost types. However, it is quite reliable in stopping last Pokemon sweeps. Curse strips 25% of the users health off each turn which means they wont be lasting long. Curse is best used in conjunction with Rest on a ghost type as it costs you 50% of your health so with Rest that can easily be recovered. Secondly, Rest allows you to "stack" Curses, with each Curse you can pull off it adds 25% damage done at the end of each turn. So for example if you stack 2 Curses the foe will lose 50% of their health, 3 Curses removes 75% of their health and if you stack 4 Curses they would be OHKO'd. Sadly there arent many viable users of this move, only Spiritomb and Dusknoir can really pull this off well due to their bulk.



    Anyway, put Taunt > Magic Coat on Deoxys-D that solves your Rankurusu weakness.

    Roserade seems kinda dead weight. Id ditch it for Ice Beam Swampert or Ice Fang Hippowdon who check Landlos in combo wit Gyar's Intimidate and can check pants lizard additionally, then you can move T-Spikes onto Forry over EQ and use Payback over Gyro.

    Dusclops wants Rest > Pain Split. Aromatherapy > S-Toss on Bliss due to Rest. S-Toss is utterly useless this gen on Bliss. Toxic > T-Wave. Status confliction is not good. =[
