How to counter Whimsicott in RU?

Aug. 9, 2012

I’m tired of these freaking whimiscotts on every RU team in existence. They can be killed, but they are SO annoying. So if you can give me a good counter, as well as a moveset and why it’s a good counter, then I will be forever grateful.

Try using Natu. Natu has Magic Bounce, so while Whimsicott can use Substitue and all that, Whimsicott can’t stall Natu at all. No Leech Seed, no Toxic, etc.

Natu @ EvioliteTrait: Magic BounceEVs: 252 HP / 248 Def / 8 SpDCalm Nature (+SpD, -Atk)

This gives Natu a chance to set up Dual Screens while Whimsicott can only watch. roost for healing, or Toxic for stalling. Thunder Wave could also work. Psyhic is so do some damage in the case of Taunt.____Hope This Helped :D
