What support does Shellder appreciate to do its shell smash shenanigans? I've been spitballing team ideas for Open and didn't know where to start with Shellder

What does Rhyhorn do in specific and why is it preferred over say Geodude? Is it basically the next best thing to Onix or something since that's not in gen 9? Ofc this is a C-rank mon but I'm still curious.

Usually it’s a poor man’s Onix, but in Gen 9 it runs a somewhat gimmicky set with Tera Flying and lightning rod that lets it serve as a counter to Voltorb-Hisui, among other things. It’s not the most viable thing in the world but it has a decent niche.
