Politoed: Why sitrus berry when leftovers is obviously better?

---

I replaced Politoed with a Smeargle. I kinda threw this team together, and thought Politoed would be a decent user of Perish Song.

Perish song is generally not viable in competitive battles.

consider Gengar for an alt mega, allows for shadow tag trap w/perish song. good synrgy w/Gothitelle
