This guy any good with Skill Link? He is one of my favorite designs but not sure if weak or not. Swapped him out for a Shiny Gyarados.

Shell Smash + Skill Link + Icicle Spear & Rockblast
Also Ice shard for times when you cant outspeed
Win all the time like that.

>liking genwun trash
Reminder that there isn't a single good design in Kanto.

Arguably broken if you give him a kings rock too.
Not many things will survive if the opponent lets you get a shell smash off.
Ive been running him in battle tree and no matter what I try to do to improve his defenses he always gets wrecked but sometimes he clutches for my team. I personally love my cloyster but I'm biased since he's been my favorite Pokémon since the beginning.

Where can I find a cloyster anyway? I haven't seen one yet and I'm at poni island.
>>30502934
He gets rekt by Pheromosa and Fat Princess

You gotta fish for a shellder at kalas bay. Surfing might work too I'm not sure. That's the only way to get cloyster

>Is basically a vagina.
Fucking Cloyster.
>>30502934
He wrecks shit 1-2 gens ago
In 6 he was harder to set up.

Does every rock throw/icicle spear have a chance to trigger kings rock?

You can get shellder from Poke Pelago if he visits your island.

i used one in gen 6 battle maison.
use a focus sash on it, give it rock blast, icicle spear and ofc shell smash. it can put some serious work in.
>>30503774

20% chance to catch at the bubble rock in Kala'e Bay
Just caught one with skill link, time to declare it king.

I use a Cloyster in Gen 6 Battle Spot. It becomes one of the best sweepers after a Shell Smash but it doesn't like bulky Pokémon that resist Icicle Spear. My set is:
- Icicle Spear (Main STAB)
- Ice Shard (Priority if the opponent has priority)
- Shell Smash (duh)
- Surf (to use Sp. Attack boost)
If you don't want to use Surf then Rock Blast is your best coverage move, and Skill Link makes it to have 125 BP while breaking Substitutes and Focus Sashes.
guys i just realized you can throw araquanid's ability onto cloyster in doubles
is this cool?

Water Bubble on any water type is cool
