I dominate
Gourgeist-Small to B-
Is one of the best Sub-Seeder pokemons for OU, its ability to outspeed a great variety of pokemons
is awesome thanks to its 99 base speed (like excandrill, gyarados, dragonite, lucario before become
mega, some gliscor variants, rotom-w and togekiss! & yep, I really had defeated alot Togekiss using
small gourgeist).
but the most important is Will-o-wisp + leech seed + sub combination which is unique for Gourgeist
(and smeargle lol). Letting defeat its opponents lowly with burn + leech seed damage. Gourgeist has
phantom force, a good physical move that let take 1 turn more of leftover (and with burn or leech
effect).
Thanks to its type grass/ghost, making a great counter of garchomp and terrakion if you predict a
Earthquake or a Close combat and even receive a outrage/stone edge to finnally burn them (also
it helped to mantain the substitute intacted when rotom W use volt switch thanks to its grass type).
The main problem of small gourgeist for your team is that is a complete set up bait of the main
fire setup-swepeers pokemons: Talonflame, Charizard and Volcarona (ironically those 3 are weak
to stealth rock so bad lol) since are inmune to burn and can't defeat them with just leech seed
+ phantom force since can roost or just defeat gour. Other problem would be some special attackers
like Alakazam and Gengar if gourgest is not behind of a substitute to receive a shadow ball. And
like any sub seeder, can be stopped with taunt (but phantom force can help gour to take time to
took out t he taun effect)
There were more replays of Gougeist doing its job when Mega Kangaskan was OU but are deleted :<
(even there was one where took more of 100 turns since my opponent had a cleric vaporeon that
was using infinetly wish + heal beall.....so much that we can lost the count xD)
But I have this good recent battle replay to show small gour in action!

and this replays show it too (but here is clear some bad moves from my opponent and my team
in general sucks, except to small-gour of course xD)
