![]() They generally aren't the most prolific sweepers, but in the late game, they can really shine. ![]() What I really love about RestTalk is the offensive component. Will O Wisp is no longer a serious factor if you're using that RestTalk Gyara you posted in the OP. Blissey can't Toxic or Thunder Wave you for long. Status-dependent pokemon are also frustrated to no end. You also are less vulnerable to sleep inducers, although Breloom still is perfectly capable of screwing with teams. You can bring yourself back from the brink of destruction and keep an effective road block on the enemy. Again, it is still supporting the team in its own right through what it counters and phazing.ĭefensively, the advantages are obvious. Supporting him defensively will allow RestTalk to do its job of keeping him alive long enough to shuffle the other team. So although he is not the focus of the team offensively, a win condition is "if I eliminate this pokemon on the other team, I win if I can keep Gyarados alive through RestTalking." Now, this strategy also works with Roar on a semi or full stall team with entry hazards. This is called establishing a win condition for your team. With Dragon Dance, Gyarados becomes a good late-game sweeper especially if your team is designed to keep it alive by eliminating its counters. What makes this Gyarados different from that Milotic and Empoleon is that it can counter its threats such as Scizor, Lucario, Heatran, and Heracross, and also execute the team's strategy all in one through the use of Sleep Talk. ![]() As many have discovered, Gyarados is an AMAZING RestTalker, despite his Stealth Rock weakness.
