Strategy Overview

Drapion is slightly outclassed by Skuntank as a Poison / Dark Wonder Guard user. While Drapion has higher physical bulk, allowing it to survive hits like Primal Groudon's Thousand Arrows and Choice Band Mega Rayquaza's Dragon Ascent, Skuntank has slightly better special bulk and can pivot after Wonder Guard Primal Kyogre, Primal Groudon, and minimum Speed Cresselia and Meloetta. As Drapion and Skuntank are functionally the same, Skuntank's analysis can be found here.
