Strategy Overview
Simisage has a very good combination of both Speed and power, but it faces competition from other physical Grass-types in the metagame, such as Leafeon and Jumpluff, in terms of Speed and bulk. Simisage has a niche in PU as a mixed attacker, Choice Scarf revenge killer, or a Nasty Plot sweeper, setting it apart from the other Grass-types in the metagame. This, combined with its vast movepool to accommodate its base 98 Attack and Special Attack, makes Simisage very threatening. However, Simisage's low defenses with its exploitable weaknesses such as Fire and Ice, susceptibility to all forms of entry hazards, and reliance on Life Orb mean that it can be worn down fairly easily.
