Reunicluas is really good . If their was no hat it would be him
His more bulky then hat but hat can pack more of a punch

I love the blob thing

This floette with hat is going really well
Using floettes fairy aura to boost hats dazzle
Then just the usual tr stuff Torkoal goes boom and farif and incin set up

How’d you been reliably setting trickroom ?

I can’t really figure a reliable tr lead without incin a farif
One that has meaningful follow through
