Strategy Overview
With the combination of Choice Scarf to outrun the entire unboosted metagame and a surprisingly powerful Ice Beam that even notably damages Pokemon that resist it, Vanilluxe makes a niche for itself in PU as a revenge killer and potential sweeper. Unfortunately, the notable lack of good coverage moves, lack of a truly good ability, weaknesses to common priority moves and Stealth Rock, and the fact that Vanilluxe is walled heavily by common Pokemon like Klang keep it from being a premier threat in PU.
