3rd Gen Sandslash or Ninjask

[renais]

I wanted a Swords Dance user on my team, but I wasn't sure if Sandslash or Ninjask was a better choice. What I see is that Sandslash has better defense, and Ninjask has better speed... any comments? I don't really care about Ninjask's Baton Pass that much.

 

[Red1530]

I would go with Sandslash because it has less weakness then Ninjask.

 

[Ayano Katagiri]

it depends on the attacks and the team that you have for a ninjask or sandslash to work

 

[Kraka-chan]

Yeah. It would depend on what Pokemon team your opponent has and if you intend to use either Sandslash or Ninjask for Single or Double Battles.

The only reason to use Ninjask is for Baton Pass, so if you don't care about it then use Sandslash.

 

[Eureka1]

sandslash is way better..

ninjask has too low a defense against most attacks so.. i'd go for sandslash (plus sandslash is immense)

 

[Vavavoom ♣]

Take Ninjaks! It's better

 

[shanecdavis]

No, Ninjask is only better if you use Baton Pass, which the original poster didn't care about. Therefore, Sandslash is a much better choice.

 

[Flamman]

if you batonpass: go with ninjask, my first choice, cause you can pass speed as wel, while attacking, has acces to silverwind, so.
no batonpass? go with sandslash, better defeces, earthquake, with 3 times swordsdance, 400% of your attack, that's sweeping!

 

[~Rene~]

I think Sandslash is better. Because it has less weakness.

I'll have to agree with everyone else in the Thread that said that "Sandslash" is a better choice than Ninjask
