This is something I completely forgot to address in my post. Sneasel is THE check to a number of threats that used to be considered overpowered. Gligar? Sneasel's ice punch/ice shard. Yanma? Sneasel's ice shard. Missy? Knock off. Krow? Ice punch/ice shard/brick break Tangela? Ice punch to knock...

1) Is Sneasel broken? Yes, I think it is. The fact there's almost no checks to Sneasel (Timburr being one of the best is still koed pretty quickly and your opponent can just switch out) Sneasel has no complete checks and obviously no counters and from what I've looked around on Google and such...

Sky uppercut gligar I'd interesting. What does it hit other sneasel switching in?

Heysup's timburr Easily deals with sneasel, switch to gligar would be extremely predictable so you could double switch to your sneasel/scarfchou etc.

I run Draining Kiss on Swirlix

Most Sneasel run inner focus so tit's fake out+bp isn't a good check/counter. I've found Swirlix to be a good check if you switch in on ice punch (works well paired with Gligar) because ice punch does ~70% and then you can (I believe) OHKO with Flamethrower after LO recoil. Sturdy 'mons are...

Yea I forgot to include that in my analysis, still not a perfect counter, but a good last resort.

Interesting set, I saw your analysis of it at the end. What does it beat other than other Sneasel? Imo other Sneasel won't usually stay in when you switch in to revenge kill them and the only thing you might beat is unburden Swirlix.

Berry Juice would be best because of Swirlix's ability. Why not 19 speed on Gligar :o (unless his Sneasel was scarfed) Edit: read that end and his Sneasel was scarfed, but still 19 speed would probably be better imo.

No BJ on Swirlix? Definitely BJ over black sludge. Meditite might be better than Aipom, but that's just my personal preference. Maybe Gligar over Fletchling? Also don't overuse fake out. It just gives your opponent free switches if they predict it. Kinda haxy battle- HJK miss and crit won you...

http://pokemonshowdown.com/replay/pokebanklcbeta-60403391 Close game between Atomic2llamas and I. I did the calcs: 156 Atk Pawniard Sucker Punch vs. 0 HP / 0 Def (custom): 9-12 (39.13 - 52.17%) -- 0.39% chance to 2HKO Gligar was at 13. Gotta love Gligar living by 1 hp <3
