Wall for -RisingManectric- (page 119)

I mostly play balance and bulky offence teams, though I could probably play whichever archetype if I wanted to. I'd like to play more HO (and I do if I'm on a low rated alt), though it's not the strongest archetype right now. (HO is currently starved of good/ fresh teambuilding options too which makes it a bit boring.)
Re Reuniclus: Yeah your answer is better than the ones that were there before. The advice you got is good. They could also have mentioned that if you're going to trick Sticky Barb or Flame Orb, you should just use Clefable instead most of the time.
But since you've given me the invitation to nitpick, I'll go ahead:
* You could mention what Reuniclus' role in the meta actually is (which is to be a stall-resistant CM sweeper, or an offensive pivot on bulky offence teams).
* Tyranitar is special wall itself. You might see some offensive variants on the lower-middle ladder, but it's truthfully not very good in that role while endless checks like Toxapex, Corviknight, Ferrothorn, etc. exist.
* Reuniclus probably makes the most sense on stall teams right now, so you could also mention teammates like Mandibuzz and Tyranitar that enable that archetype and beat some of Reuniclus' offensive checks.

I’ll be in the CAP Project Room on Showdown!, where you can DM the same way as server lobbies- finding someone’s name in the right sidebar and clicking it. Technically, you could also hit “Find a user” and type in my Showdown! username. :P

Also, we have the same time zone, btw. :P
