>>44216144Obviously on Machamp it's a meme but on some mons like Ttar or Dragonite with passable Sp Atk who tend to run physical sets it can be a genuine surprise; imagine switching something like Lando-T in to wall those mons and then getting hit by a surprise Ice Beam or Draco Meteor. Main problem as a strat is that it can only catch the opponent off guard for one turn so it's very prediction reliant, and after that they're basically a gimped version of their regular selves, not to mention their Sp Atk isn't high enough to punch through walls like Clef, Ferrothorn and Pex. But it could secure a surprise kill that wins the match in some instances
