Mini Feebas review

Marvelous Milotics, coached by Mini Feebas

Feebas got two very solid typings, and a solid draft to complete it. If we look at everything but his NU picks, every single one of those 9 mons is an offensive threat. With potential scarfers like Garchomp, Terrakion and Noivern, set up sweepers like Mega-Altaria or Kommo-o, and wallbreakers like Drampa or Pangoro, I would say that no team is getting a 6-0 win against him. He also has decent momentum, with Noivern, Pangoro and Cobalion. His hazard options are fairly good, with 3 rocks setters and both Blaziken and Hitmonchan being able to reliably remove hazards (not that they bother him too much in the first place though). Finally, he has decent bulk in Hariyama, Cobalion and a possible Eviolite Fraxure (which could also be a sweeper, so be careful of that one). He also made sure to stop Psychic and Ice types with Pangoro and Cobalion. His Z users are also great choices, as Terrakion can OHKO most things with Continental Crush and compensate for the low accuracy of Stone Edge with Rockium Z, and Kommo-o with a z crystal and a Ddance up can be extremely threatening. Justified Terrakion is even his dedicated Knock Off switch in, which means that Knock Off will never be a safe play against him and could be abused by Feebas to sweep his opponent. He also got every immunity he could by getting Flying, Fairy, Ground, Normal and Dark types, which prevents those moves from being mindlessly spammed against him (*cough* Tflight where’s your answer for Ghost). Overall, it's a draft that has bulk and offensive power, and should be able to set the pace during most games if played well.
However, his draft does have several problems. Firstly and most importantly, Fairy types absolutely destroy this draft. It was to be expected though, since both his types are weak to it. With Cobalion and Blaziken being his only team members not hit super effectively by fairy moves, Feebas will be forced to bring things like Poison Jab and Iron Head on a scarfed Garchomp or Terrakion almost every week, even if his 3 Bullet Punch users can be enough to stop fairies. Speaking of Bullet Punch, his only priority user with STAB is Hitmonchan, which will probably make other priority users very good against him. Other types he is weak to include Flying and Ground, since he has no resistance and no Electric type for the former, and no Water, Ice or Grass type for the latter. I can see Sand Rush Excadrill putting huge dents in his team if he doesn’t prepare for it well. His team, while bulky, is also rather slow, with Noivern being his only mon above 110 speed, and this means that a fast scarfer will almost always outspeed his team reliably. As well as this, he has some bulk but none of his mons are dedicated walls or have useful status moves like Wish, Trick Room or Tailwind. Another problem his draft has is the lack of special attack. He did get Noivern and Drampa as well as Mega-Altaria, but all of these being dragons means that they are relatively easily to prep for and counter, even if individually they can threaten teams. He didn’t have many special attacking options though, so getting a couple is the best he could do.
To conclude, Feebas got a solid draft that can definitely get some wins. While he has many weaknesses, a single misplay by the opponent can create the perfect conditions for a sweep, and, even while playing well, his revenge killers can pull him out of a tough spot and manage to secure a victory right up until his 6th mon gets KO’d. The draft can seem unbalanced, but there’s no need to defend from an already dead opponent, and Feebas has enough power in his squad to seriously mess up anyone who didn’t draft a Fairy type as well as those who did but underprepped for his many threats.

This draft gets an 8/10
