Question

Building a Tinkaton to take down Flutter Mane, as my team is very weak to it. Stealth Rock or Thunder Wave?

Comments

This is for competitive, right? What format/rules are you asking about? Singles or doubles? Are there any Pokemon, moves, or abilities that you're not allowed to use?

Answer 1

Stealth Rock, since Tinkaton can take a Specs Shadow Ball and OHKO with Gigaton Hammer. It's better to set hazards than paralyze a Pokémon that can be OHKOd.

252 SpA Choice Specs Flutter Mane Shadow Ball vs. 252 HP / 52+ SpD Tinkaton: 168-198 (44.9 - 52.9%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery
252 Atk Mold Breaker Tinkaton Gigaton Hammer vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Flutter Mane: 588-692 (234.2 - 275.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Hope I helped!
