>It's good, you just got to set up and use Trick Room
Well Trick Room is one of the best strategies in VGC17
>>31925990
Trick room is meant for Slow Pokemon
That's like complaining about using any weather prominent Pokémon because you have to set weather
People also forget Tsareena and Bruxish exist to cancel priority moves in Trick Room

Tapu Lele would be better

>it's good, it just needs dualscreen and sticky web support

>Using trick room when opponents are already slower than you
>Trick Room has -7 priority so most Pokemon are either too fast to use it themselves and have to switch after activation or are often too slow to activate before being OHKO'd
>All weather has 0 priority
>All terrains have 0 priority
>Weather lasts 5 turns and has items to extend it to 8
>No item exists to extend Trick Room
>There are auto-setting weather Pokemon
>There are auto-setting terrain Pokemon
>There is not even one auto-setting room Pokemon
>Introduce an entire new gen of Pokemon that shine in Trick Room
>1% of them actually learn Trick Room
Why don't they just fucking get rid of it then
For fuck's sake

He's not wrong
But the issue is that we need an automatic trick room setter
