>>19483655When it comes to offensive utility, Skrelp is typically a Pokemon you wouldn't think about. In fact, his name doesn't even come up when you think of the word 'powerhouse', truly truly the runt of the litter of your team, and arguably the bad luck charm that's going to get you to lose this battle. So hard.
>'Hmm...I wonder...if I can get rid of the Hail by changing it to rain to get rid of Avalugg's healing, then try to stall out with Protects in between each move I make, maybe, like, poison Tyrantrum in-between, then keep stalling out, I mean, I might have a chance--'The voice of Dr. House then suddenly intrudes your brain.
>"No, you're totally going to get raped in this next turn by just one move, watch. Watch. What do the kids say these days? I swear on my mom? Yeah, I swear on my mom you'll lose.". . .
You have a sudden burst of energy, "YOU'RE RIGHT DR. HOUSE, I CAN DO THIS! Skrelp, Rain Dance!"
And so you enact your absolutely flawless strategy of crippling Avalugg's healing to further increase the Toxic damae death, spamming Protect in-between, and trying to out Tyrantrum while paying little attention to coffee table's slowly dying behind.
Yeah, you can totally get behind a plan like this.
"Skreeeeeeeeeee!"
Wiggling about, Skrelp summons rain clouds to push out the hailstorm currently demonizing the battlefield. Serena would be thankful, had it not been for the replacing rain to be as cold as the snow that was buffeting her five seconds ago.
>The hail stopped...>It's raining!Feeling a bit smug, you put your hands on your hips and try to talk shit, "YEAH, TAKE THAT, WHERE'S YOUR HEALING NOW, DOOF...D-DOOFUS?"
