So have any of you find how to make Goodra decent competitively?
I playtested this guy for the first time in Pokebank Showdown and to be honest it is really underwhelming - it's the exact same feeling as testing Haxorus for the first time.
First, none of the abilities were actually good.
With Hydration this guy would be top 5 OU in gen V, but with weather nerf politoed is just not worth a team slot anymore.
Gooey also sounds great on paper except that Goodra's physical defense is not that good. Stone miss and EQ, two of the most used physical moves are non contact. The rest of contact physical moves like CC really wrecks Goodra. It's only good as last ditch sacrificial counter against say a +1 DNite
To be honest, at this moment Sap Sipper is his best ability.
Any help here? Also what is a good teammate for him? I found that he doesn't have that much synergy with other common OU mons
