PU Ribombee

[Hera]

Ribombee @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Shield Dust
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Quiver Dance
- Moonblast
- Aromatherapy
- Roost

When it isn't pollinating, Ribombee can be found dominating PU teams late-game, to an extent that very few other Pokemon can. Its great Speed tier gets the jump on many fast Pokemon like Whimsicott and Archeops, as well as Choice Scarf users like Mesprit at +1. The combination of Aromatherapy and Roost means that it can set up on anything that can't 2HKO it, like Sandaconda without Stone Edge or Jellicent. However, bee very careful, as Steel-types like Togedemaru and Aggron can all impede a sweep; Charizard and Gallade are good partners that can threaten out these Pokemon. Charizard can also run Toxic to cripple Gigalith and make it easier for Ribombee to sweep. Entry hazard setters like Sandaconda and Ferroseed can help further wear down Ribombee's switch-ins and switch into Gigalith and Togedemaru for it; in return, they enjoy a switch-in to Grass- and Fighting-type moves in a pinch like Power Whip and Close Combat. Ribombee appreciates Charizard switch-ins like Audino and Gigalith, which can also use Knock Off and Toxic to wear down Ribombee answers like Articuno. They also appreciate Ribombee's Aromatherapy healing annoying status for them.

When it isn't pollinating, Ribombee can bee found dominating PU teams late game, to an extent that very few other Pokemon can. Quiver Dance boosts Ribombee's power, special bulk, and speed all at once u don't have to explain moves out like this, while the combeenation of Aromatherapy and Roost means that it can set up on anything that can't 2HKO it like Tsareena or Audino lacking Encore not a thing, and I think you can use better examples tbh, given how strong tsar is/can have axel and the toxic vs aroma can be dicey but that's less of a concern. However, bee very careful, as Steel-types like? and Gigalith can all impede a sweep. Ribombee should bee paired with Pokemon that can threaten its switchins, like Charizard and Gallade this might sound smoother closer to the steel-types + giga point. Charizard can also run Toxic to cripple Gigalith and make it easier for Ribombee to sweep later on. Entry hazard setters like Sandaconda and Ferroseed can help further wear down Ribombee's switchins as well as switch into Gigalith and Togedemaru for it; in return, they enjoy a solid Scrafty switchin ehhhh idt u ever /want/ rib as the scrafty switch in could mention like grasses for conda and fightings for ferro. Poison-types like Weezing and Qwilfish are also annoying, as they can out damage its recovery with a super effective STAB move. Jellicent and Cofagrigus are Pokemon that can abuse their presence due to their Poison resistance and multiple utility options I think you're kinda reaching with the poisons here, only weezing can stay healthy (even then not consistent at all) and qwil gets worn down quick + rib can run psychic anyway, I think this portion can be cut. They also appreciate Ribombee's Aromatherapy healing annoying status for it. what beats charizard for ribombee? what can help rib get into a position to sweep?
