Ahh Trick Rooms.
I recall my team being Reuniclus, Machamp, Metagross, and some filler Pokemon.
Yeah, except I used mine as a counter to Trick Room rather than setting it up myself because I kept running into a lot of them online. It's slower than all of those and has awesome attack, defence and sp.def. It had Substitute, X-scissor and Aerial Ace, can't remember the fourth move, probably Iron Head, and an Expert Belt. X-scissor should take out Reuniclus, Aerial Ace would do a ton to Machamp (it was also there for Hitmontop and Amoonguss), couldn't do much to Metagross but it's resistant to its common moves though I don't remember seeing it much in a Trick Room team.
Yeah wow, I just looked it up, Stantler's base defence is a measly 62. And I've had my butt kicked by Infernape enough times to know how strong it is. Still it's pretty neat for such a rarely used pokemon (if at all) to pull through especially with both a type and level disadvantage .Yeah, Stantler had Intimidate, but even then it seemed like Infernape would've still been able to pound him into the ground with the 10 level difference. I guess it might've just been his in-game Starter for D/P/t and thus wasn't EV trained like my Stantler was.
