>>55384833>Ambipom with Baton Pass and stat-boosting movesFucker is way too frail to pull off that strat. It's getting raped immediately 9/10 without doing anything.
>Octillery to cover his team's weakness to Ground-typesNot a bad idea in theory, but Octillery is slow as shit. It's getting blown out immediately by its trainer's specialty type. Why not Floatzel? It fits Volkner much more and it's guaranteed to get at least one powerful Water-type attack in before going out
I don't mind Gym Leaders using mons outside their specialty type (in fact I encourage it) but this is just awful design. Having an unorthodox team doesn't equate to having a good team.
