Strategy Overview

Zigzagoon is one of the most unique sweepers in the Little Cup metagame, due to its access to the Belly Drum + Extremespeed combination, which makes it very powerful after it sets up and difficult to revenge kill because of Extreme Speed's +2 priority. However, Zigzagoon has a shallow movepool and a mediocre offensive typing; it's also very slow, though Extreme Speed mitigates this flaw. Zigzagoon also relies on setting up Belly Drum to perform its role and is kind of useless if it fails in doing so; it also needs a lot of team support compared to other sweepers so that it can perform its role perfectly.
