Strategy Overview

Camerupt is an often-overlooked Pokemon that is capable of stopping some of the biggest threats in the OU metagame. However, it fares poorly against the common Gyarados, Salamence, and Flygon, and the Choice Band set requires huge amounts of prediction to be effective. Nonetheless, the tank set can be a great team supporter and lure. By drawing in and getting rid of key walls, Camerupt can set up an easy sweep for a teammate.
