>>56925589it wasn't all that great at countering the fairy five, actually.
even if you already had it mega'd, hard switching to it was always a gamble because you could eat shit to a high roll specs shadow ball from lele, most koko sets could just 2HKO with tbolt or volt switch on outta there before you got to retaliate, whirlpool fini could straight 1v1 it if it got the whirlpool on the switch, etc. it only really had guaranteed winning matchups against bulu and magearna, or if you managed to bring it in for free.
it was far from the fairy fucker that anons here meme about.
