>>20589947>Almost every smeargle runs sporeNo shit sherlock, next you'll tell me baton pass teams run baton pass
Smeargle doesn't do jack shit attack wise, that's why its always taunt bait.
But it's also really fragile; 9/10 times it HAS to run a sash, or it'll just die from lots of faster threats.
But yes, a herb smeargle would fuck with that.
And literally only that aside from other random taunt shit. Which as you said is uncommon. Which means the rest of the time smeargle just dies if it leads.
I'm not saying it's uncommon, but crobat can ruin bpass from the start, and very few people counter it well.
Crobats just amazing
>>20589981Yeah, if you run impish + lots of def investment it does.
Then you get out sped by other baton pass teams.
Yeah base 60/89 defenses real terror there, what is acrobat going to use rock smash?
