Strategy Overview
Having well-rounded stats and learning a few useful moves boosts Politoed's ability to leave a mark in the UU metagame. However, outside of UU, Politoed kind of fades into obscurity with the likes of such things as Golduck and Blastoise, since it simply isn't strong enough to sweep in OU, like Tentacruel, nor is it remarkably good at supporting, like Suicune and Starmie.
