Piloswine.
# 221.
Type: Ice / Ground.
Ability: Oblivious.
Locations: Evolve Swinub, Snag from Bodybuilder
Lonia (XD).
Hi everyone. Welcome to another Pokémon of the
Week. Today we’re reviewing Piloswine, the Swine Pokémon.
Piloswine is a decent Pokémon, still underused.
It has a nice attack so physical sweeping is going to be your
best choice. The bad thing about this one is its water weakness.
But still it is a good type combination.
Oblivious is a great ability, uncommon, but very
good.
Being a physical sweeper it does have a very
static move set, if you face one of these. It is almost sure it
has this move combination:
Piloswine.
Nature: Adamant (+ Attack, - Special attack).
Equip: Leftovers.
EV´s: 252 Attack, 129 Defense, 129 Special
Defense.
- Eartquake
- Ancientpower
- Return
- Ice beam
This set takes advantage of ground, rock and
normal types. Ice beam is there just in case. I have seen some
resting Piloswines. Some others like to use toxic instead of ice
beam.
When should I use this Pokémon?
It is fun if you have the right team to cover
Piloswine’s abilities. If you have a baton passer Ninjask you
might want to pass speed to this one, that’s going to be a
tremendous advantage for Piloswine
What should I use against this Pokémon?
Water types, unfortunately, Piloswine can’t
handle any of them.
Bottom line:
At this point, we already know Piloswine can
evolve, so the new move combinations will be something
interesting to analyze.
Rating:
2.8/5
Hope you enjoyed.
Reeve.
