Overview:
Crabominable is an interesting pokemon with mediocre defences, and low speed. However it makes it up with its amazing high attack of 135. With it's low speed, it can take advantage of Trick Room and becoming such a huge threat. Outside of Trick Room, it is quite a fragile mon with no recovery moves or status moves. It's abilities suggests to simply attack the opponent with Hyper Cutter ignoring any moves or ability lowering attack, Iron Fist with doing as much damage as possible and Anger Point to do a huge amount of damage if hit from a crit.
Potential Sets:
Offensive Trick Room
Crabominable @ Life Orb
Ability: Hyper Cutter
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD
Brave Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Close Combat
- Power-Up Punch / Crabhammer
- Ice Hammer
- Earthquake
Set Description:
When Trick Room is set up from any pokemon, Crabominable creates chaos with Close Combat for a huge STAB move, Power-Up Punch for another STAB that increases the Attack Stat by one stage, making Crabominable stronger or Crabhammer for fire types, rock types, and ground types that can be hurt severely by it, Ice Hammer, another powerful STAB move that lowers the speed of the user, which makes Crabominable faster in Trick Room and more deadly and Earthquake for any pokemon that resists Ice and Fighting such as Aegislash and Toxapex.
Bulk Up
Crabominable @ Leftovers
Ability: Hyper Cutter
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Close Combat
- Ice Hammer
- Earthquake
- Bulk Up
Set Description:
With this set, it could be used without Trick Room and be a set-up mon and still wreck havoc. Close Combat and Ice Hammer is the STAB moves that Crabominable has and Earthquake is for coverage for any mon that resists Ice and Fighting. Now, with Bulk Up, its going to be a fun time. Having +1 on Attack and Defense can make it a even stronger hitter and likely to survive any physical hits. Leftovers is for recovery since it doesn't have any recovery moves.
Personal Opinion: Crabominable is a fun pokemon to use, but can't be really good in OU. The base stat attack of 132 could be a huge threat in lower tiers such as RU or even UU. It can be countered by any priority moves in Trick Room. But in the end, it's something you don't want to mess with.
