How and when to use protect?

Question

There are many people that say protect is useless and not to use it. But, it can stall out trick room and save you from a fake out which flinches. I'd like to use it to my advantage in competitions, so what can I do to use this move more efficiently?

Answer 1

You can use it to get a speed boost safely, protect yourself from fake out, stall with burns or poison, heal with lefties and poison(gliscor) and so much more! Hope I helped!
