Offensive Spikes

by Nameless90

Here we have an offensive attempt with this Ogerpon. Ivy Cudgel is the Water STAB, whereas Wood Hammer is picked over Horn Leech for the extra damage output. I really like the fact that Water Absorb mitigate the recoil of Wood Hammer. Knock Off is picked over U-turn (bad 4MSS) for the extra coverage and utility, especially because even this moves are boosted by the Wellspring Mask. Knock Off is more valued here because it is further boosted by the Mask. Spikes is the core of this set because even this Ogerpon form still hits hard, and thus forces a lot of switches. What I really like of Spikes is that you can lay down up to 3 layers, and they are not removed easily such as Toxic Spikes. They allow this monster and it's teammates to reach some KOs/2HKOs that otherwise would have been impossible
