Sneasler prob?

ironmeadow-70 OP

Prob?

ironmeadow-70 OP

Could you share a little more what you think if you wouldn’t mind

daringorange-42

I like fake out cycling more than tailwind on your set up tbh

daringorange-42

because you're already playing fast stuff already so you'd just be outspeeding other scarf mons

ironmeadow-70 OP

Do you know how I would deal with the opponent if they set up tailwind? Because usually I would counter with my own

daringorange-42

Fake Out -> KO

daringorange-42

Sneasler Fake Out -> Incin Flare Blitz

ironmeadow-70 OP

True but if they protect whim

ironmeadow-70 OP

Or their tailwind setter is not whims

ironmeadow-70 OP

I guess if I sent out Sneasler first, then switch out my other Mon with incine

daringorange-42
  • shrug- just my opinion teehee sorry you can go with whims if you want too :3c
ironmeadow-70 OP

I could have fake out pressure on two turns

ironmeadow-70 OP

I am grateful

ironmeadow-70 OP

I am just simply curious is all

ironmeadow-70 OP

Another person suggested Sneasler as well so this helps

ironmeadow-70 OP

Fake out cycling I will keep in mind
