An Idea about Raticate's power

[Adham]

We all know that Raticate is useless in PvP.

 

But let's say that Raticate's power is unrevealed yet; so... what is Raticate's power ?

 

There is some facts about Raticate that some of us did not know:

1) Raticate is one of few Pokemons that learn Super fang via level up.

2) Ability: Guts works when the user is sleeping.

2) Raticate have a unique or high speed.

 

I tried to discover Raticate's Power by making some movesets that might makes Raticate powerful in PvP, In the end i made two movesets, Here they are:

 

Ability: Guts.

Nature: Jolly. (To insures that Raticate will attack first)

Item: Razor Fang or King's Rock (To rise the chance of flinching the target)

2) Substitute / Super Fang / Bite.

3) Rest .

EV: 252 att, 6 hp, 252 spd.

You can use Guts+Toxic Orb too, Jolly aswell with Sucker Punch, Facade, Swords Dance, U-Turn/SuperFang and another interesting moves.

Raticate got good speed base yes, but other stats are low, test it can be interesting anyway :Shy:

We all know that Guts work on burn and poison, but when i discovered that it can work on sleeping Pokemon too, i tried to make a new moveset that can be used for a sleeping Raticate, So Raticate does not have to take damage from poison or burn.
