THIS. GUY.
Why is he so good? He has been one of the biggest powerhouses on my team. I love when people say he's garbage, but that's because they don't know how to run him. Fuck man, newest bro for life.

I picked up Furfrou as an early-game pokemon and fully expected to have him in the box before the next gym, he ended up coming with the to the league and mopping the floor with everything in his path. I'm breeding one for competitive use now.

>>16119368
well, I'm not going to give away all my secrets.

Okay, I guess I will.
I go with 252 SpDef, 252 HP, 4 Spd
Careful (+SpDef, -Atk)
Leftovers
Cotton Guard, Toxic, Rest, Snarl

He covers both ends of the spectrum, and can tank hits on both sides very well. Snarl throws EVERYBODY off their game. He was able to tank out Talonflame, M-Alakazam, Latios, and Forretress - back when I was running T-Wave/Facade in place of Toxic/Rest. Predicting switches into special sweepers is the key to shutting them down, though.

Furfrou is viable wherever I SAY he is viable

I used one throughout my game and have been pleased by how few shits he gives about anything, though I have yet to actually try to use him for anything beyond that.

To tank special hits via Snarl. Her Def is so high, it's just a drop in the bucket.

>>16119835
He has been doing wonders for me on Showdown. It's easy to get unlucky, though. He is not the BEST guy, but he can do wonders if you use him correctly.

>>16119557
Snarl is good in doubles, but it's because it's unexpected in singles that I use it. I want to see how well I can use Furfrou in doubles as well (dat awesome T-Wave/Snarl/U-Turn support).

I like you. Also I really want to train a furfrou after this thread. But the question is, do I want to try and breed for a shiny? Because that black fur is fly as heck

At some point in the future, when I can MM for one with good IV's, I plan to. But that is a project for a later day. The guy just sits there and says fuck you to so many things. That, and with a 102 base speed, he's damn fast for a wall.

Few pokemon can deal with all threats. Presumably, you'd run him with some sort of aromatherapy support and U-turn into said support if he gets hit with toxic, preferably after crippling the enemy with a snarl or twave while they use that turn to set the status.

This guy sounds interesting. I use a full wall team, and 5/6 guys can deal with toxic and 5/6 can regenerate life. My issue is that this guy is just a toxic staller, so anyone who swaps in can just set up on him if they are steel/poison or can raise sp atk by 2 stages at a time.

Wild Charge

Twave

I shit you not I have yet to be OHKO by anything. It amazing to watch people try to HJK or Close Combat him only for it to take 40%. Fur Coat is a broken ability be glad only he gets it because it something with stats got it we'd have the greatest tank of all tanks.

Easily could be UU simply because of Fur Coat, its that good

Her Def is actually pretty lackluster without any EVs. The point of doubling it is to double the EVs to.

With no Def EVs, hes got as much as a 120 Def pokemon with the same EVs.

With full Def EVs, he has as much Def as a 190 Def pokemon with the same EVs.

What I meant was that he could still tank physical hits very well, and could sponge special hits at the same time.
