Is granbull gonna be any good this gen (because it's now a fairy)? I'm thinking about using it on my team.
It has quick feet, which is probably more useful than intimidate, but it is worth the toxic damage to have only 90 base speed? Any sets for this guy would be greatly appreciated.

it's definitely better. quick feet isn't very useful. with a 50% boost to its speed it only reaches an astoundingly low 67.5 base speed. intimidate is much better. it's lack of speed is certainly it's problem.

it's best used as a pivot with teeth. it can take hits and dish out status ailments in addition to hitting hard when needed.

It needs a proper evolution.
And not a crappy Mega one, a real evo.

you didn't specify what the stat was but you obviously mean attack. which isn't 210. it's 105.

if you are trying to make a point you should be clear about it. so far you are just blithering.

What everyone's forgetting is that it gets Rattled. Speed boost if it's hit with a Bug/Ghost/Dark move, two of which it now resists, and it's the only fully evolved Pokémon besides Sudowoodo that gets it. Run it alongside a Psychic type and you won't have any need for Quick Feet. And that's without even mentioning the amount of Ghost/Dark moves being thrown around this gen to beat the now-innumerable Ghosts running around.

Rattled. It resists two of the three types that activate it and both of those types are common with Crunch and U-Turn. It also gets Close Combat, EQ, and the punches for coverage, along with Play Rough.

Rattled seems too reliant on the opponent. Quick feet really is much better.

On a different note, what should I EV this guy in? And he gets outrage, play rough, and close combat as well as the elemental fangs....any good sets?

That's what he's trying to say, dumbass. Quick Feet multiplying your speed by 150% is not the same as having 67.5 base speed, just like Huge Power doesn't make M-Mawile's Attack have the equivalent of base 210. Increasing the stat with IVs, EVs, and Natures makes the boost more significant.
