How does /vp/ feel about Shuckle? Is it viable competitively for you? Have you had any fun battles with it?

I hate how everyone likes it because
"My ebin shitmon bro xD!" Or they legitimately think some gimmicky power swap set any competent player can shut down is gonna make them look cool

I've never run into anyone using it but I really fail to see it being relevant in higher tiers, especially with power creep megas right now

the mental herb sr/sticky web/encore/knock off suicide lead was too good for ru, I doubt it's very good in uu.

My first ever multiplayer battle was against Shuckle back in Gen 4. It walled my entire team.
To be fair, I was using a full Eeveelution team with no EVs and no idea what natures even did.
Since then, the only interesting thing I've seen is a Struggle Bug+Encore+Helping Hand one in VGC. It was cool but I'm sure other things do it better.

It's only use against opponents who know what they're doing is guaranteed rocks. It's a monster in elo hell though. Contrary Rest/Toxic/Shell Smash/filler stops a lot of things if your opponent doesn't have an answer or crits

I use it for fun in matches against friends who are not very skilled. Contrary + Shell Smash and Power Split really annoys people.

It's really cute too.

These stats
HP: 20
Attack: 10
Defense: 230
Sp. Atk: 10
Sp. Def: 230
Speed: 5

Wouldn't be has bad if it had a better typing. Rock/Bug makes its gimmicks even harder to actually use.

The typing and HP don't really help at all. It has a thing going for it with the movepool though
