Strategy Overview
Stantler is rather mediocre in NU. It is outclassed by Kangaskhan and Tauros, both of which are speedier, are more powerful, and have better abilities. The only thing Stantler has over other Normal-types is its access to the combination of Intimidate and Sucker Punch, which allows it to take a few physical hits and support the team by weakening the opponent, and gives it a decent priority move to defeat faster threats such as Kadabra. However, because this niche is extremely specific, it is generally more beneficial to use other Normal-types instead.
