Strategy Overview
Although Barboach isn't one of the most common Pokemon in LC, that shouldn't mean it should be overlooked. Being one of the few Pokemon in Little Cup with access to Dragon Dance, in addition to two great STABs in Water and Ground, Barboach can inflict a lot of damage with only a single boost. However, that's where the list of proficiencies ends for Barboach. Unfortunately for Barboach, it can be taken down pretty easily by most Choice Scarf Pokemon as well as dedicated physical walls. In addition, Barboach's only viable item is Eviolite, as its defenses are quite low. This makes it harder for Barboach to sweep because it can't run Life Orb.
