Singles analysis

What this movepool and ability set qualify for under the Singles on National Dex role checks used by league synergy and the roster builder.

Base 65 Speed sits in the middle tier: neither a natural revenge killer nor a slow pivot.

  • Wallbreaker: Atk or SpA clears the 120 bar (105 with a breaker ability).
  • Sweeper candidate: has setup and the Speed, a Speed boost, or the bulk to use it.
