[OVERVIEW]
Spinda's atrocious base 60 stats across the board and bland Normal-typing mean that no matter what it tries to do, it will always be outdone by another Normal-type Pokemon such as Ursaring or Audino.
[SET]
name: Trick Room
move 1: Trick Room
move 2: Superpower
move 3: Return
move 4: Sucker Punch
item: Life Orb
ability: Contrary
nature: Brave
evs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
ivs: 0 Spe
[SET COMMENTS]
This set is the only feasible way Spinda can even hope to sweep: by setting up Trick Room and then gaining boosts using Superpower. However, Spinda's base 60 Attack and Defense mean that it is not very strong or bulky, leaving it easily revenge killed by Mach Punch from Gurdurr or Hitmonchan. Musharna and Alolan Exeggutor are better Trick Room setters because they have better stats all around and better typings in general; Ursaring is a better Trick Room attacker because of its much higher Attack stat; and Lurantis and Servine are far better Contrary users thanks to their better offensive stats, access to STAB Leaf Storm, actual bulk, and utility with Defog and Synthesis.
