Strategy Overview

It has a great stalling movepool, but really low defensive capabilities. A jack of all trades, master of none. What he has going for him is the element of surprise, and the ability to mess up stall teams to an extent thanks to Leech Seed, Spikes, and Focus Punch. However, any proper offense shuts him down. Hard to use in UU.
