Why would dracovish get sand rush? It’s not even rock/ground/steel

Both draco fossils get sand rush. I'm pretty sure the stoutland line gets it too despite not being rock/ground/steel. Also the ability grants immunity to sandstorm.

Zolt's best partner is Vish actually
Dynamax Zolt has acrobatics and low kick, meaning they don't even need Sand Rush to boost speed and attack power
I'm pretty sure that Vish annihilates any and all trick room setters, so you'd have to rely on prankster from whimsicott to stop the two, and whimsicott dies to Max Airstream

Keep it in mind that some of Home datamine might not be final. Azumarill was supposed to learn High Horsepower TR according to Home datamine, yet it cannot learn this move in SwSh.

Everything Dragonite does as a sweeper is done better by Dragapult.
The only advantage is multiscale but WP sets want to be hit by their partner asap.
Dragonite is more suited as a bulky "just die already" pokémon.

You mean boots + multiscale. Dragonite would break this game in half.

>>44344140
Pult's kinda shit for a DDancer. Sure it's difficult to revenge kill, but it lacks the power the other dragons have while having only decent bulk at best. Meanwhile Dragonite hits harder, can't be revenge killed if multiscale is up, and has a priority move.

One with 134 attack, so it'll be completely thrashing your ass while you try to make it just die already.
