🧸 Little Cup

Clauncher has potential and with its strong moveset, it takes out some threats such as Seel, Golbat, Skarmory, Drifloon, and Ducklett. However, it would appreciate some variety in its Charged Moves that would let it tackle more Pokémon types. For now, it is just a spicy addition with limited viability as there are several better Water types for this format.

Clauncher is not viable for any other PvP League.
