Is Gengar + Musharna common in VGC?

Question

So I was doing some ranked battles last night and I ran into a weird team that Dynamaxed musharna and sucker punched it with Gengar to activate weakness policy. It caught me by surprise at first because I’d never seen it before, so I was wondering if this is a real strategy that people use? Is musharna good in the current meta? Or did I just run into a weird opponent?

Comments

It is common.  Very common with Rhyperior though.

Answer 1

Out of all VGC 2020 teams with ratings above 1760 GLICKO, about 1/68493 of them had a Musharna, so it's very rare. Over 2% of them had Gengar, though.
