Strategy Overview
While Cinccino has a great Speed tier and an array of moves bolstered by Skill Link, it struggles to break through most teams due to middling power, mediocre bulk, and a lack of opportunities to switch in. Cinccino struggles to break through common physically defensive Pokemon such as Steelix, Rocky Helmet Weezing, and Ferroseed. Other wallbreakers like Sneasel, Heliolisk, and Aerodactyl provide better STAB moves with higher offenses, defensive utility, and even STAB priority in Sneasel's case. Only use Cinccino as a team mascot because it's too cute to be injured in battle.
