Strategy Overview
When you see that Wobbuffet is available for use in a tier where Shadow Tag is banned, you might think that there would be no reason to ever use it. This, however, could not be further from the truth. Wobbuffet carves itself an excellent niche as the bulkiest Pokemon in the tier without any actual use at all. This means that Wobbuffet is easily the best death fodder in the tier. Unlike other death fodder, such as Luvdisc and Emolga, Wobbuffet does not try to trick poor Trainers into thinking it could possibly be useful in any other capacity by learning damaging moves. It also does not let the opposing team set up on it, an area in which most other death fodder fails miserably. Wobbuffet is the perfect Pokemon for those situations where you desperately need to sacrifice something but can't afford to sacrifice a Pokemon with any value whatsoever.
