Strategy Overview

Seismitoad is unique in the fact that it is the only Pokemon that has the ability Swift Swim in VGC 2011. Unfortunately, with Seismitoad as the only Swift Swim user, rain is not the dominant force it was in VGC 2010. However, with the right support, Seismitoad is capable of wreaking havoc.
