What to Use:
Whimsicott @ Focus Sash
Ability: Prankster
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Spe / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
- Taunt/Stun Spore
- Encore
- Memento
-Tailwind
Roles: Support, Stall Breaker.
What It Does: The main reason to use whimsicott is because he have the ability to annoy both offensive and defensive mons with Prankster + His awesome moverpool. Stun spore is used to stop fast sweepers, and works in ground types too, encore can lock mons in usless moves against whimsicott or something usless against a whimsicott partner, also nobody likes being locked in a boost move, SR, or a Status move in general. Taunt is used to Stall-Break better, and can be used to stop Set-Up sweepers before they Set-Up. Memento is awesome to Support ur own Set-Up sweepers, because nothing(excpet Bisharp and Serperior) like to be with a -2 Spa/Atk, alongside with Stun Spore and Encore/Taunt ur Set-up Sweeper will have a really good time seting-up, Tailwind can be used to buff the speed of your team and make the work of late game cleanners become easier. Sash is Used to guarantee that Cott can use at last two moves, and it's the prefer item when using Memento
Good Teammates: Set-Up Sweepers really appreciate the Momentum that Whimsicott gives, Some of them Have trouble trying to set-up, but with Cott they can do it easily, some examples are Cloyster, Mega Diancie, Mega Absol, Gorebyss(smashpass), Smergle(Geopass/Smash Pass), and Several Others. , Some Wallbrakers like Mega Camerupt and Crawdant also apreciate Cott Support, becuase they are Frail and like the ability to free Hit/Set-Up a mon in a Switch, Hazard remover and/or a Wish Passer is necessary, since Whimsicott needs to be with full health to Focus Sash Work.
What Counters it: Whmsicott is very versatile, almost nobody likes to switch into a Stun Spore/Taunt/Memento, but Magic Bouncers can easily counter him, Almost Any Poison Type in the meta will offer dangerous to Whimsicott, and Whimsicott can't switch into a taunt too.
Any Additional : You can use Moonbalst/Giga Drain/U-turn to deal with Magic Bouncers.
