SkarmCash

[mustbe18toryde]

Skarmory+Whishcash. Let's see the weaknesses,

Skamory=Fire/Electric
Whichash=Grass

Skarm=4x resist Grass
Whishcash=Takes zero damage from Electric and 1/2 from Fire.

Skarmory@Leftovers
Nature: Impish
EV: 252 Def/HP
1. Drill Peck
2. Spikes
3. Roost
4. Whirlwind

Standard Skarm

Whishcash@Leftovers
Nature: Careful (+Sp Def, - Sp Attack)
EV: 252 HP/Sp Def
1. Amnesia
2. Mudsport
3. Earthquake
4. Watersport

Well, 110 Base HP is good yes? Amnesia to boost Sp Def is also good yes (just switch in on something that would switch out)? Mud Sport covers Electric and Water Sport covers Fire.

Is Water/Mud Sport still in effect, even AFTER Whishcash switches out?

Very creative...I don't see it being skarmbliss, but it is rather creative.

 

[mustbe18toryde]

Would it still work well? Yeah it isn't the next SkarmBliss, but I think it has potential.

 

[Anti]

If the "sport"s work with all pokemon, it would hurt skarmbliss killers, like, ironically enough, your machamp;)

 

[Persona]

Sadly, Whiscash will always be outclassed by both Swampert and Quagsire, even by Gastrodon. I'd find it a decent choice in UU, the least it has is its useful typing and above average HP base. Resistances aren't everything though, so I wouldn't just go ahead and pair it up with something like Skarmory.

 

[Anti]

True, it doesn't have the defenses, even with amnesia, to wall THAT effectively. I still see potential.

 

[mustbe18toryde]

Quagsire has even less HP/SP Def. Swampert can't learn Mud/Water Sport. Gastrodon can only learn Mud Sport.

 

[Anti]

Actually, swampert does learn mud sport...

 

[mustbe18toryde]

But not Water Sport however.

 

[Samson]

you have to pass water sport/mud sport and the like.

however, this could work. problem is that gengar and the like have both thunderbolt AND energyball at their disposal, so the problem isn't being solved.

however, i wouldn't call whishcash useless. i use it as a CB sweeper, and oh man, is it nice. it has that surprising Spark to take idiots out... i love it.

 

[mustbe18toryde]

Hmmm, so for Water/Mud Sport to benefit my other team mates, I have to use Baton Pass?

 

[Samson]

yes. (lalalalalalalalalalalalala)

 

[Anti]

yes. (lalalalalalalalalalalalala)

I don't think ther eis a way to...well, light screen does a lot of the same for skarmory.
