How many times does future Ledian has to defeat you before you accept to be her new shiny slave?

Even in game this guy is such a pain to use, and this is coming from a guy whose favorite pokemon is shuckle and has used it on multiple playthroughs of different games. If megas ever return this guy needs one desperately, such a weird concept for a monster deserves better.

I use this guy on my showdown first route rodents team.
Furret @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Frisk
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Super Fang
- U-turn
- Trick
- Knock Off
It's useless 90% of the time but it's pretty funny when you trick the scarf onto their wall then super fang the switch in.

It's not the worst thing in-game like an early bugmon, but man Rapidash really isn't good. It's been overshadowed by Arcanine since the beginning meaning it's always been a subpar pick.
If you're gonna make its best moves all recoil moves GF, at least give it some more health to work with.

I run Ground-type teams all the time but I find it tough to include this little girl, even though she does have her roles. The greatest success I ever had with her was taking her to the Tiny Tourney last year. She was essentially my Amoongus counter, being immune to Spore. Even then, she STILL needed a Quiver Dance before Psychium-Z would guarantee a KO on Amoongus. Luckily it would rarely scare the mushroom off...

I hope my lady gets some stats or Shore Up or something else good in Gen 8.

+Good movepool with nice coverage
-shit resistances
-pitiful special defense means even resisted and neutral attacks will dent it
-weak to common physical moves so can't wall anything
>lackluster abilities

I love the design and movepool, but if it at least had some better abilities then it would be useful

This thing is actually pretty good on stall. It deals with Mega Mawile easily which is important to cover. It also deals with smogon dog and packs lots of utility.
