OHKOs I guess. What else is there? You could inflict a burn to chip away at it I guess, but regenerator makes it a fucking wall.

It's shit for offense though, so in theory any highly offensive electric or psychic mon would be safe. Even a frail Alakazam could probably take at least one round of pin missile from this thing, and could perhaps 2hko the Toxa

Bulu's Wood Hammer really puts a dent into Toxapex. Now I'm not saying it's a hard-counter or anything, but it does make a neat check.

What set do you guys run on this?

I'm thinking of making a core with specially defensive Ferrothorn with the following

Toxapex @ Black Sludge
Regenerator
Bold
252 HP/252 Def/4 SpD, 0 Atk IV
-Scald
-Toxic
-Recover
-Poison Protect (I can't remember the name)

funny thing is that grass/steel is the only typing to have the best synergy with water/posion. You know what that means. Niche is different. Pex is a wall. Ferro is a hazarad setter/pivot/annoyer/spin blocker(because of iron barbs)

>what are you going to do to counter everyone's new waifu?
beat everything else and leave pex for the end or run more psychic/electric/special ground types.

Strength Sap is an additional reason now as well since it heals the user by the opponent's attack stat

Not the same guy, but scald seems like a waste as you've got toxic/bane for status, and Tox wouldn't deal hardly any damage with it either.

With poisoning (bad or regular), a rocky helmet and infestation, Toxapex could actually be giving decent damage every turn while still being fully invested in defenses. Combine that with regenerator and you've got a huge threat in any format.

i like the 12.5% damage per turn and negating double switches. I don't like 30% burn rate and burn nerf dealing 6% per turn instead of 12.5%.

Scald is better if you have a balanced team. I don't find scald very useful ins stall teams, where people love to double switch.
