Minccino

Minccino is a potent threat capable of breaking through weakened foes. Due to the way LC damage rolls work, the combination of Tail Slap and Skill Link allows it to do a lot of damage. An excellent Speed tier of 18 also allows it to outspeed Mienfoo, Vullaby, and Onix. However, it is outsped by Abra and Ponyta and only Speed ties with Gastly. Its Normal typing is unremarkable other than its weakness to the common Fighting-types that dominate LC. Furthermore, its poor defensive stats allow it to be OHKOed by a wide variety of foes, such as Abra and Mienfoo. Lastly, while it has a good range of coverage options, such as Knock Off and Seed Bomb, its low Attack stat means that other than Tail Slap, its moves are relatively weak.
