>>35157412Nidoking vs. Tapu Koko - Koko's HP Ice is its best move in OU but it's only a 2HKO at best, while Nidoking has the choice of Earth Power or Sludge Wave for the OHKO.
vs. Tapu Lele - Nidoking can only OHKO Lele with Sludge Wave if Lele's Trainer fucks up and doesn't use Psyshock or Psychic, or if the Scarf or Specs builds lock Lele to something else.
vs. Tapu Bulu - Tapu Bulu gets nuked by Nidoking's Sludge Wave before it can even attack.
vs. Tapu Fini - Fini falls to Sludge Wave with at worst a 2HKO, and often has no counter, since its Defensive set doesn't run Hydro Pump.
