Swords Dance, Growth/Work Up or Curse for my Torterra?

Jan. 4, 2022

For my BD Torterra I wanted to know if I should Swords Dance, Growth/Work Up or Curse for the Pokémon. It is sassy nature. Please tell me if you need more info. This is for an in-game team.

Curseis the best choice, as Torterra won’t be outspeeding much even without the Speed drops. The extra Defense can help it set up more Curses, giving it more Attack, which can help it sweep opponents more easily.

Swords Danceis a good choice if you think Torterra is sufficiently bulky and needs Attack more than it needs Attack + Defense. It can be more effective, but Curse is typically better due to the bulk offered.

Growth/Work Upare bad because you don’t have any special moves.
