We tried using Swalot on the OU ladder... w/ Phil
7Swalot, the parent of Phil's signature Pokémon, looks good on paper but is not in practice. Although with a cool ability in Sticky Hold, Body Press synergy with Acid Armor, and decent coverage options such as Earthquake, Swalot's lackluster stats and typing make it the perfect death fodder for the Iron Valiant sweep. Despite not knocking Swalot's item off, Knock Off still has a 1.5 damage boost against Sticky Hold Pokémon. The rest of the not lackluster team is SpD Ting-Lu, Gastrodon, Libero Cinderace, Iron Valiant and defensive Zapdos.
Luma was so loud I cut her out btw, in case anyone is wondering about the weird intro cuts!
