Strategy Overview

Although Shuppet has the best Attack stat out of all the Little Cup Ghost-types, it has an extremely shallow movepool; for example, its only STAB physical attack is Shadow Sneak. However, Shuppet's Special Attack is also above average, meaning that it can run mixed sets well. Although Shuppet also has an extremely nice supporting movepool, its defenses are mediocre, meaning most attacks will take a decent chunk of Shuppet's health. Its ability, Insomnia, allows Shuppet to act as a sleep absorber against opponents such as Shroomish and Venonat. All in all, Shuppet has the worst overall stats out of all the LC Ghosts, though it can definitely be an asset if given the right support.
