Binacle

With access to the unique combination of Tough Claws and Shell Smash, Binacle is a very capable sweeper. When given a Choice Scarf or Choice Band, it can also perform as a revenge killer or wallbreaker, respectively. Along with these great assets, Binacle has a number of powerful STAB moves that add to its offensive potential. However, a Water / Rock typing leaves Binacle weak to several common attacking types and forms of priority. In some ways, it is outclassed as a Shell Smash sweeper by Tirtouga, and it lacks power when running a Choice Scarf. Despite these problems, Binacle remains a powerful threat that earns itself a place on many teams.
