LC Growth Numel

:sv/numel:

[SET]
Numel @ Eviolite
Ability: Simple
Level: 5
Tera Type: Grass / Ground / Fire
EVs: 36 Def / 236 SpA / 236 Spe
Modest Nature
- Flame Charge
- Growth
- Flamethrower / Fire Blast
- Earth Power

[SET COMMENTS]
With the combination of Flame Charge, Growth, and Simple, Numel is one of the most threatening sweepers in Little Cup. Simple doubles any stat changes, so when Flame Charge or Growth are used, Numel gets +2 to either its Speed or offensive stats. Fire Blast can be used over Flamethrower for improved chances to OHKO Pokemon like Crabrawler or Mudbray. Numel can use Tera Ground or Tera Fire to make its STAB moves even stronger, while Tera Grass can be used to allow Numel to shed its weakness to Ground- and Water-type moves, additionally granting Numel an immunity to Spore from Foongus.

Numel makes a good pair with Shellder on offensive teams, as they can work together to blow through many teams' defensive Pokemon like Mudbray or Foongus to make progress. Numel appreciates the presence of Memento users like Alolan Grimer or Drifloon, as Numel can take advantage of them dropping opposing Pokemon's stats to begin sweeping. Mudbray is able to take a boosted hit from either of Numel's STAB moves and threaten to KO it with High Horsepower or Earthquake. Grookey is a good partner because of this, as it can switch directly into Mudbray and force it out, as well as set up Grassy Terrain to cut the strength of Earthquake in half. Shroodle can also be problematic for Numel, as both of its sets can either threaten Numel offensively or prevent it from sweeping through status like Encore.

With the combination of Flame Charge, Growth, and Simple, Numel is one of the most threatening sweepers in Little Cup. Simple doubles any stat drops or boosts, so when Flame Charge or Growth are used, Numel gets +2 to either Speed or it's offensive stats. Fire Blast can be used over Flamethrower for improved chances to OHKO Pokemon like Crabrawler or Mudbray. im no expert on the formatting of these but if youre saying fire blast is an option over flame, shouldnt flame be the first and blast the second in the set? Numel can use Tera Fire or Tera Ground to make it's STAB moves even stronger, while Tera Grass can allow Numel to shed it's weakness to Ground and Water-type moves, allowing it to setup with Flame Charge or Growth. also spore immunity id probably mention

Numel makes a good pair with Shellder on offensive teams, as they can work together to blow through many team's defensive Pokemon to make progress. Numel appreciates the presence of Memento users like Alolan Diglett or Drifloon, as Numel can take advantage of them dropping opposing Pokemon's stats to begin sweeping. Numel is vulnerable to Wingull, as it's typing blocks any attempt by Numel to start sweeping. Gothita and Hisuian Voltorb are good partners for this reason, as they can both threaten Wingull with Thunderbolt, along with Gothita's abiliy to trap Wingull with Shadow Tag. id probably mention shroodle weakness since its an important mon fr and both sets beat you

Set description goes here.

With the combination of Flame Charge, Growth, and Simple, Numel is one of the most threatening sweepers in Little Cup. Simple doubles any stat changes, so when Flame Charge or Growth are used, Numel gets +2 to either Speed or it's offensive stats. Fire Blast can be used over Flamethrower for improved chances to OHKO Pokemon like Crabrawler or Mudbray. Numel can use Tera Fire or Tera Ground to make its (Not a possessive; fix this for all other instances of "it's" in the analysis) STAB moves even stronger, (Swap the two clauses in this sentence) while Tera Grass can allow Numel to shed it's weakness to Ground and Water-type moves, allowing it to setup with Flame Charge or Growth. (Dex info) This also grants Numel an immunity to Spore from Foongus. (combine the last 2 sentences)

Numel makes a good pair with Shellder on offensive teams, as they can work together to blow through many team's defensive Pokemon (Such as?) to make progress. Numel appreciates the presence of Memento users like Alolan Diglett Grimer (More relevant example) or Drifloon, as Numel can take advantage of them dropping opposing Pokemon's stats to begin sweeping. Numel is vulnerable to Wingull, as it's typing blocks any attempt by Numel to start sweeping. Gothita and Hisuian Voltorb are good partners for this reason, as they can both threaten Wingull with Thunderbolt, along with Gothita's abiliy to trap Wingull with Shadow Tag. (Wingull sucks, so you'll need a better example here; stuff like Mudbray and Drifloon that can live a hit and OHKO back or revenge kill it are the best ways to handle Numel, especially when you add offensive pressure from other mons) Shroodle can also be problematic for Numel, as both of it's sets can either threaten Numel offensively or prevent it from sweeping through status like Encore.
