LC chingling

[zizalith]

[OVERVIEW]
Despite its passable Special Attack and support movepool, Chingling is a mediocre pick on any team; it's not able to excel in any role due to its unfavorable typing, which leaves it weak to common moves such as Knock Off, Pursuit, and U-turn, and its crummy defensive stats, which leave it prone to being overwhelmed by wallbreakers. It is completely outclassed by Slowpoke and Spritzee at any role it attempts.

[SET]
name: Defensive
move 1: Psychic
move 2: Recover
move 3: Grass Knot
move 4: Hypnosis / Hidden Power Fighting / Knock Off
item: Eviolite
ability: Levitate
nature: Bold
evs: 156 HP / 116 Def / 196 SpD

[SET COMMENTS]
Chingling can attempt to switch into resisted attacks, such as Mienfoo's High Jump Kick and Timburr's Drain Punch, and take advantage of the free turn to attack them or use Recover. However, most Fighting-types run coverage that allows them to heavily damage Chingling back, making other Fighting-type counters like Mareanie, Foongus, and Spritzee much more reliable.

ready for qc

i would leave it at "completely outclassed by slowpoke or spritzee for any role." I think this change makes and -> or grammatically correct.

i'm not digging hypnosis instead of hp fite, but that's a minor enough change.
QC: 1/2

make sure to mention that Melon got DESTROYED by chingling once on ladder.

 

[Merritt]

do not mention Melon's matchup against Chingling that was a joke

[OVERVIEW]
this is fine

[SET]
sure why not

[SET COMMENTS]
Either replace Onix EQ for something Chingling resists (maybe Timburr Drain Punch) or rephrase so it doesn't imply Chingling resists ground. "hit them with one of its moves." is a poor choice because it's very wishy washy. Would recommend taking out the Ground-types can get around Chingling part entirely, because Chingling can take Rock Blast okish.

good

2/2
