  1. If you're struggling with Skuntank, catch a Numel outside the Grandview Station with Rain/Thunderstorm (I don't remember which one it was, but you can use the weather change mod to adjust it). Numel learns Earth Power at level 26, which should be decently strong to deal with Skuntank (extra points if you get one with Growth, and Simple). Also... Crobat is a B*TCH. Just that. Pachirisu is AMAZING against it, thanks to it's good Special Defense, since it can take any hit from Crobat, retaliate with Nuzzle, and then try to wear it down, just so your next Pokemon may have a better time dealing with that winged demon.

     

    Btw, HMs, or TMXs in this game can be forgotten, just so you know, Pachirisu doesn't need to need a HM slave forever (since it's also decent against Shelly).

     

    TL;DR: Catch Numel and Level Up Pachirisu

    they could be a perfect means of obtaining it

    But like, why... Breaking Swipe isn't that good, so Dragon Claw would be a far better reward

  3. If you have in your PC a Butterfree, a Vivillon, or any of their pre evolutions, you can use Sleep Powder + Hurricane (or Air Slash) + Quiver Dance to sweep his whole team. Otherwise, catch a Hawlucha and give it a Synthetic Seed to sweep with Acrobatics (make sure his own Hawlucha is weakened, though)

  4. Although Froslass may seem appealing due to it's high speed, it's a really mediocre pokemon. Although it's UU by smogon standarts, that's because it's serves as a spikes setter. However, that utility isn't all that useful in Reborn, since no one is changing their Pokemon a lot, and Froslass doesn't hit hard. If you need an ice type, then I can recommend you 4 options:

     

    Ninetales: Although it has almost the same speed and special attack, it can boost it's offenses via Nasty Plot. Snow Warning is an amazing ability, since it makes Blizzard 100% accurate, enables Aurora Veil, and can trigger Slush Rush for Pokemon like Alolan Sandslash. Fairy is also a good offensive and defensive typing, but you'll need to breed Moonblast onto it. Vanilluxe is another good option for a Snow Warning user that can hit harder, but it doesn't have access to Aurora Veil, or a high speed stat.

     

    Mamoswine: I don't think I have to explain this one. Ice + Ground is an astonishingly good offensive typing, hitting at least 9 types super effectively. Coupled with a beefy attack stat, Mamoswine is sure to nab a KO onto almost anything. Thick Fat is the preferred ability, since it helps it check Fire Types far easily. You'll need to breed it Icicle Crash from an Alolan Sandslash, i think

     

    Jynx: It has access to dual STAB in Psychic and Ice, not the best, but it's always useful if you need to diversify your team a bit. Since it has access to Nasty Plot, it can serve as a late game setup sweeper, and it will hit sooo damn hard after just one. It may be PU in Smogon, but that doesn't mean it can't do well in Reborn, thanks to its high speed and special attack

     

    Weavile: Another one that I don't need to explain. Same as Mamoswine, but it has higher speed, and different STAB. Weavile hits hard and fast, and it has access to priority in Ice Shard. Again, you'll need to breed it Icicle Crash via Alolan Sandslash/Sandshrew.

     

    All of them are good options. Choose one that fits onto your team. I like A LOT the utility provided by A-Ninetales, but i may be slightly biased, since it's overall one of my favorite Pokemon ^~^, but i can't deny it's usefulness, but if you need a hard hitter, then DEFINITELY go for the other options, specially Mamoswine.

    I thought it coul maybe be an item like the max soup in the sw/sh dlc, because normally gigantamaxes can hold items. That probably won't be the case though. 

    Way too complicated. It's better if they just Mega Evolve as any normal Pokemon. Why should you implement any whacky mechanic when you can just use an effective mechanic that ALREADY is in the game (and it does the exact same thing)?

  6. Teach Noivern Whirlwind trough move reminder, that will negate the effect of the Synthetic Seed. Also, a grass type can take care of Quagsire and Pallosand. Go and catch an Abomasnow, since it provides Hail, and that would help Sandslash outspeed AND kill Garchomp (if Electric Terrain is up). You can catch it at Route 4 at a reasonable high level, and knowing Wood Hammer, I think.

     

    Turn 1: Take down Nidoking with Swampert

    Turn 2: She will most likely go for Quagsire, switch into Noivern and then Whirlwind

    Turn 3: Reset for the Exadrill switch in, since it will go for Rock Slide, switch into Swampert and weaken it with Earthquake (if Swampert got hurt during the Nidoking battle, try giving it a Sitrus Berry to restore it's health, or just sacrifice Noivern, because it most likely won't be useful again)

    Turn 4: She will go for Quagsire, switch into Abomasnow and defeat it. 

    Turn 5: Use a Pranster Cottonee with Stun Spore/Cotton Spore to reduce it's speed

    Turn 6: Zebstrika uses Ion Deluge and then dies. (Make sure to give it an Amplified Rock, if it doesn't have one, try mining for one in the rocks at Citrine Mountain)

    Turn 7: You should have Hail turns, so Switch into Alolan Sandslash to OHKO Garchomp with Icicle Crash

    Turn 8: She will go for Pallosand, but Ion Deluge should still be up, so you can weaken it with Icicle Crash.

    Turn 9: Hippowdon isn't an issue, so it should die easily.

  7. Pokemon Unite? Oh! You must be talking about the new DLC of League of Legends!

     

    Here, an accurate representation of my reaction to the direct:
