Strategy Overview
While Remoraid appears a bit fishy at first, a closer look reveals that Remoraid is an interesting Pokemon. Amazing attacking stats and Speed mean that Remoraid has the potential to eat teams up. Being a Water-type helps in this regard, as its STAB has nice coverage. It gets even better when you realize that Remoraid has access to the most powerful Water-type move in existence, Water Spout, as well as Waterfall to take care of special walls. Combine this with excellent coverage moves such as Ice Beam, Seed Bomb, Fire Blast, and even Gunk Shot, and one realizes that Remoraid can be an immense threat to unprepared teams. If there was one thing holding Remoraid back from greatness, it would probably be faster Pokemon and users of priority; to put it bluntly, Remoraid has the defenses of a wet paper bag. Overall, Remoraid is a great Pokemon with few drawbacks, so definitely try it out and be prepared to face it.
