Strategy Overview

Castform is a very cool Pokemon. I didn't think so when ADV first came out, but I came around over time. It is a real shame, as is the case with most cool Pokemon, that it sadly isn't good enough to fit into the standard metagame. However, it is still fun to use against new players.
