Nidoking+SD Chomp Balance

by mrseacoore

Nidoking looks very volatile in the new meta with all that seems to be prominent. Very few safe counters. I have garchomp with fire blast specifically for max phys def skarmory. Naive nature can be warranted if more damage is desired. Scizor is max spdef defog. Just consistent. Rotom is also specially defensive and pairs very well with scizor both offensively and defensively. Wisp is very useful for limiting things like garchomp, mamoswine, dragonite, among other strong physical attackers. I originally had NP. I have rest+chesto berry because pain split is not currently an option for Rotom. Infernape with scarf mainly acts as the speed control for the team or late game cleaner. Skarmory is here for garchomp, dragonite, and to wall physical threats as well as set up rocks and gradually wear things down through whirlwind and brave bird. Enjoy the team!
