gourgeist gets a huge buff to it's subseeding set by the addition of prankster, something like
Gourgeist-XL @ Leftovers
Prankster / Careful
252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Will-O-Wisp
Substitute
Leech Seed
Phantom Force / Seed Bomb / Protect
Max special defense as you now have prankster wisps to boost up that physical defense. 85/122/75 is not terrible bulk and it has a decent defensive typing. It'll pretty much check every non-fire offensive pokemon out there. Final Slot is so that you're either not ruined by taunt or that you can stall a little more with Protect. Straight forward, will be effective as fuck, I mean seriously, do people think Prankster won't make him viable? Prankster is a freaking stupid ability that will make almost anything with some semblence of a support movepool a threat. I mean, Sableye is literally a shit pokemon but it's got Prankster.
Also, the Small Gougeist has the fastest D-bond in the game now thanks to Prankster, gimmicky but can be useful.
