Strategy Overview
While Silvally's decent Attack in tandem with its access to Swords Dance and decently powerful STAB moves make it seem threatening, there isn't much reason to use it over other Normal-types. Stoutland and Kangaskhan more easily and consistently threaten balance and offense, respectively, due to their better coverage in moves like Superpower and Earthquake, their access to Scrappy, and the latter even possessing priority in Fake Out. Although they are frailer than it, Dodrio, Zangoose, and Alolan Raticate also outclass Silvally as Normal-type setup sweepers because of their secondary typings, their actually useful abilities, their more immediate power, their access to priority moves, and the former two's better Speed tiers.
