Strategy Overview

Given that many Psychic-types in the tier are competing with it for a teamslot, Duosion struggles to make a mark. It is mostly outclassed by Musharna due to the latter's better bulk. It is also extremely slow. However, it has an amazing ability in Magic Guard, which means it cannot be Toxic stalled or worn down by entry hazards, unlike Musharna. Alternatively, Regenerator is also a fantastic ability that allows Duosion to stay healthy throughout the match without having to rely on Recover. Unlike most bulky Psychic-types, Duosion is able to beat Mandibuzz thanks to Magic Guard and its access to Thunder.
