Strategy Overview

Don't be fooled by Clamperl's baby face and charms; she's one of the most deadly Pokemon in UU. Deep Sea Tooth doubles her Special Attack stat, giving her more immediate power than even the feared Deoxys-A. However, without her signature item, Clamperl is essentially useless. Clamperl also has awful Speed, making Trick Room a necessity to her success. If you can provide adequate support for her, Clamperl will be a dangerous addition to your team.
