Strategy Overview

Despite not suffering from competition as a Coil user by having decent abilities and a nice movepool, Arbok struggles to find its place. Its only average Attack and Speed and mediocre bulk make it a bad setup sweeper, give it a hard time setting up, and leave it easily revenge killed and walled by metagame staples, such as Oricorio-E and Jellicent.
