Strategy Overview

Watchog is a poor choice for a Normal-type wallbreaker in the PU metagame, as it is heavily outclassed by Stoutland and Kangaskhan, which possess greater Speed tiers and much more wallbreaking potential. Stoutland and Kangaskhan also have Scrappy to hit opposing Ghost-type Pokemon with their Normal-type moves. On the other hand, Watchog is stuck with Analytic as its best ability, which makes it rely on attacking second; however, with its subpar bulk, it doesn't survive for long.
