PVP Mode Explanatory Notes

PvP Moveset Explanation
Mud Shot + Scorching Sands & Shadow Ball

Mud Shot is the Fast Move of choice, as it generates energy quickly and entirely out-classes Astonish.

Scorching Sands hits fairly hard post-STAB and has a chance to debuff the enemy's Attack, while Shadow Ball hits even harder and has outstanding neutral coverage.

PvP Rating Explanation
Great League: 1 / 5

Palosand's stats are fairly well rounded, and don't exactly offer great bulk in the Great League. And while its typing is fun, it has a number of easily-exploited weaknesses and not much counter-coverage. On top of that, it's outclassed as both a Ghost Type and a Ground Type.

Ultra League: 0 / 5

While it can hit 2500 CP by getting close to Lv.50, it's probably not worth the investment.

Master League: 0 / 5

Palosand is a sand castle, and sadly it's every bit as easy as a sandcastle to knock flat in the Master League.
