Is there any use for a Contrary Shuckle outside of double/triple battles?

I have an example: [I'll post this on "What is a good moveset for Shuckle?" too]

Brave nature

Gyro Ball
Rock Polish
Power Trick
Sand Tomb (If you send this out for a different reason)/Whatever you want here

This is the best I could come up with. Rock Polish gets you to an even lower speed rate, powers Gyro ball to epic power. Sand Tomb is when you have a different idea in Using this. Power Trick is pretty obvious.

Uh, Gyro Ball has a max power ( Pretty sure 150 ) which if I recall, brave shuckle hits without Contrary Rock Polish.

thats assuming ur facing a fast poke

Shuckle's pretty slow, I'm doubtful that there'll be a Pokemon slower than it.
