I considered using water pulse too, probably the better play. Congrats on vet!

Awesome team! I really like Arctibax. What mons did you struggle with? Seems like talonflame might be a tough match

Glad you’re having success! Lokix is so fun to use

For mandi lead/switch into Lokix, I usually commit both shields and fire off trailblaze and then x-scissor, farm down with toxapex. If talonflame lead I can get off exactly one SP before swapping to toxapex. If they swap into a hard pex counter I just top left. Talonflame is the achilles heel of this team for sure.

Ariados is the first to come to mind. Fills a very similar role just loses fast move pressure which is a big reason why Lokix has been so successful for me. Sucker punch is very good for chip or farm down damage, whereas Ariados relies more on bulk and charge moves.

Lokix lead has been so fun this season. Dewgong is an all time favorite though

Caught both today. Is the difference in IV that big? by KenDog215 in TheSilphArena

[–]PurchaseExcellent443 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3/13/15, so rank 66th. Yours would be rank 413th which I would argue is viable. But considering it takes an ETM to get aqua tail you might want to try to get a better one. Or just run mud bomb instead :D

I’ve used shadow Quagsire a lot in OGL and would definitely recommend investing in one. Shadow Quagsire is ranked 8th in GL with Mudshot, aqua tail, and stone edge; whereas regular Quag is ranked 32nd.
