>>23396751I suggest getting the dog, training it and giving it Work Up, so it can set up against the mole on either Krookodile or Palpitoad. Stoutland is fast as hell, so it may actually outspeed the thing.
The dog was the guy that saved me from Excadrill, left with about 18HP. (It had Sand Rush; though that didn't matter since Clay doesn't use sandstorm weather, and if you're going to set up on the first two, Intimidate's not going to do anything, either)
Unfortunately, the Move Reminder is at Mistralton, so you can't teach it the elemental fangs quite yet. Fire Fang or Ice Fang would help, but alas, all you can do is setup Work Up and use full-power Return.
Yes, the dog is good. Just watch out for the Confuse Ray; RNG was merciful on me.
Meanwhile:
>steamroll through Skyla>get unlucky with a random Trainer, lose Seamstress to thing that had like 1HP left>on Twist Mountain, my catch gets a crit Wake-Up Slap after thawing on the turn it got frozen, killing DOGE.>Battle Girl with a Throh, about which I totally forgot that it's bulky as hell, so it kills Amethyst before it's KOd>get miss on Trainer's Boldore, Fire Taco gets killed(That's Leavanny, Stoutland, Gigalith and Darmanitan, respectively)
Okay, Route 7 and Twist Mountain are now officially cursed :/
This is my new team.
