Strategy Overview

Stantler receives heavy competition from other Normal-types such as Stoutland and Ursaring because of its lack of power, bulk, and ability to set up. It is able to hit a wide array of Pokemon with its numerous coverage moves making it a passable option on Normal-type spam teams, but is ultimately too outclassed to be worth using. It has a good ability in Intimidate, which allows it to better take on physical attackers, as well as priority in Sucker Punch, allowing it to hit Ghost-types for super effective damage and pick off weakened foes or frail Pokemon such as Raichu; especially along with Intimidate, Sucker Punch makes for a great revenge killing tool. However, Stantler is worn down very easily, meaning it has trouble beating bulkier Pokemon that can take its hits. Even though it has Intimidate, it is very frail and can take few hits.
