"Step aside Alolan-Muk- There's a new king of Battle Royal BP Farming: Kingdra"


Until today, I had been using Alolan-Muk to farm BP at Battle Royal to a pretty good result. Today, I found out how Kingdra + Alolan-Muk can be even more devastating and efficient.Without further ado, here is the set:Kingdra @ Scope LensAbility: SniperEVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpeModest NatureIVs: 0 Atk- Surf- Draco Meteor- Focus Energy- AgilityMuk-Alola @ Black SludgeAbility: Poison TouchEVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpDAdamant Nature- Poison Gas- Curse- Shadow Sneak- MinimizeFirst of all, Kingdra is an ideal choice for Battle Royal because it has only two type disadvantages: Fairy and Dragon. The way the AIs calculate their targets is mainly dependent on two things: type advantage and low HP. That means Kingdra will not be targeted often by the AIs.But here is what makes Kingdra even better: if you use focus energy on top of it holding the scope lens item, it's a guaranteed critical hit. Compound that with its Sniper ability (critical hits do 2.25x the normal damage instead of the usual 1.5x), it can do some major damage. The critical hit more than compensates for the nerf of Surf in multi battles (moves that can hit multiple foes are reduced by 25% in damage). Also, it is extremely important to note that critical hits bypass any decrease in stats. That means we can spam Draco Meteor over and over without having to worry about the sharp lowering of Kingdra's special attack stat.Here is the basic strategy of using Sniper Kingdra:Focus EnergyAgilitySurfDraco Meteor if needed???ProfitHowever, if there is a threatening Pokemon in turn 1 such as Garchomp or Goodra, it is recommended to use Draco Meteor on the foe immediately and then use Focus Energy in the second turn.In the relatively rare cases where Kingdra faints, we can simply toss in Alolan-Muk, the defensive king of Battle Royal. This is perfect because Kingdra will usually have netted you at least one or two kills. Now you can protect and further your lead with Alolan-Muk.Here is the basic strategy for Alolan-Muk:MinimizeMinimizeMinimize (now your evasion is maxed out. There's a reason why this move is banned in tournaments).If there are two or more Pokemon on the field that can be poisoned (non-steel or poison types), use Poison Gas.Use Curse until...There's a foe with low HP- use Shadow Sneak.That's all from me. Good luck!MFW I win with 7 KOs and all three of the Pokemon in my team aliveEdit: Kingdra has two type disadvantages, not one. via /r/pokemon http://ift.tt/2sZO8nN
