  3. Gengar
  4. 0 SpA Politoed Scald vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Gengar: 100-118 (38.3 - 45.2%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
  5. 0 SpA Politoed Ice Beam vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Gengar: 75-89 (28.7 - 34%) -- 2.1% chance to 3HKO
  6. Rain
  7. 0 SpA Politoed Scald vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Gengar in Rain: 150-177 (57.4 - 67.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
  8.  
  9. 252 SpA Life Orb Gengar Giga Drain vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Politoed: 213-252 (55.4 - 65.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
  10. 252 SpA Life Orb Gengar Sludge Bomb vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Politoed: 191-226 (49.7 - 58.8%) -- 98.8% chance to 2HKO
  11. 252 SpA Life Orb Gengar Shadow Ball vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Politoed: 169-200 (44 - 52%) -- 11.7% chance to 2HKO

  13. If you absolutely have to send in Gengar then your priority is to click Giga Drain so that you can regain most of the damage that you took. Giga Drain should compensate for most of what you'll lose from a non-rain Scald. This isn't ideal but you'll be chunking his HP by more than half. This puts him into range for other Mons to pick up the KO. I should make a note that it takes very good rolls for Khan to KO him from 45% with Fake Out + Body Slam, the minimum roll is a 31.3% chance. However, there are three chances to get good rolls between Giga Drain, Fake Out, and Body Slam.

  15. Kangaskhan
  16. 0 SpA Politoed Scald vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Kangaskhan: 94-112 (26.7 - 31.9%) -- guaranteed 4HKO
  17. 0 SpA Politoed Ice Beam vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Kangaskhan: 71-84 (20.2 - 23.9%) -- guaranteed 5HKO
  18. Rain
  19. 0 SpA Politoed Scald vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Kangaskhan: 94-112 (26.7 - 31.9%) -- guaranteed 4HKO
  20.  
  21. 252+ Atk Kangaskhan Fake Out vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Politoed: 51-61 (13.2 - 15.8%) -- possible 7HKO
  22. 252+ Atk Kangaskhan Sucker Punch vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Politoed: 59-70 (15.3 - 18.2%) -- possible 6HKO
  23. 252+ Atk Kangaskhan Body Slam vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Politoed: 106-126 (27.6 - 32.8%) -- guaranteed 4HKO
  24.  
  25. Khan can't do much to Politoed, save her Fake Out for another Mon. Have something else KO Politoed unless he's in Body Slam range, your lowest roll is a 6.3% at 33% HP and from there it turns up by about 6% more per every 1% he loses. Check your calculator during battle
  26.  
  27. Magearna
  28. 0 SpA Politoed Scald vs. 248 HP / 248+ SpD Assault Vest Magearna: 34-42 (9.3 - 11.5%) -- possible 9HKO
  29. 0 SpA Politoed Ice Beam vs. 248 HP / 248+ SpD Assault Vest Magearna: 13-16 (3.5 - 4.4%) -- possibly the worst move ever
  30. Rain
  31. 0 SpA Politoed Scald vs. 248 HP / 248+ SpD Assault Vest Magearna in Rain: 52-63 (14.3 - 17.3%) -- possible 6HKO
  32.  
  33. 0 SpA Magearna Energy Ball vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Politoed: 162-192 (42.1 - 50%) -- guaranteed OHKO
  34. 0 SpA Magearna Fleur Cannon vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Politoed: 175-207 (45.5 - 53.9%) -- guaranteed OHKO
  35. 0 SpA Magearna Volt Switch vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Politoed: 126-150 (32.8 - 39%) -- guaranteed OHKO
  36. 0 SpA Magearna Ice Beam vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Politoed: 40-48 (10.4 - 12.5%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
  37.  
  38. Politoed is a free Volt Switch for Magearna but it's usually better to click Energy Ball first if he has Seismitoad, if he has Moltres then Volt Switch. If he has both Seismitoad and Moltres then click Energy Ball, it's better to be right and KO Seismitoad. Motlres won't be able to do much damage to you since it's in rain and you're AV
  39.  
  40. Noivern
  41. 0 SpA Politoed Scald vs. 28 HP / 0 SpD Noivern: 48-57 (15 - 17.9%) -- possible 6HKO
  42. 0 SpA Politoed Ice Beam vs. 28 HP / 0 SpD Noivern: 288-340 (90.5 - 106.9%) -- 37.5% chance to OHKO
  43. Rain
  44. 0 SpA Politoed Scald vs. 28 HP / 0 SpD Noivern in Rain: 72-85 (22.6 - 26.7%) -- 32.2% chance to 4HKO
  45.  
  46. 252 SpA Noivern Hurricane vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Politoed: 147-174 (38.2 - 45.3%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
  47. 252 SpA Noivern Draco Meteor vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Politoed: 174-205 (45.3 - 53.3%) -- 35.5% chance to 2HKO
  48. 0- Atk Noivern U-turn vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Politoed: 30-36 (7.8 - 9.3%) -- possibly the worst move ever
  49.  
  50. You can finish him off after chunks from moves like Giga Drain. A good opportunity to U-Turn into other Pokemon, you can also Protect and waste a turn of rain
  51.  
  52. Tangela
  53. 0 SpA Politoed Scald vs. 252 HP / 248+ SpD Eviolite Tangela: 32-38 (9.5 - 11.3%) -- possible 9HKO
  54. 0 SpA Politoed Ice Beam vs. 252 HP / 248+ SpD Eviolite Tangela: 96-114 (28.7 - 34.1%) -- 1.7% chance to 3HKO
  55. Rain
  56. 0 SpA Politoed Scald vs. 252 HP / 248+ SpD Eviolite Tangela in Rain: 48-57 (14.3 - 17%) -- possible 6HKO
  57.  
  58. 0 SpA Tangela Giga Drain vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Politoed: 162-192 (42.1 - 50%) -- 0.4% chance to 2HKO
  59. 0 Atk Tangela Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Politoed: 38-45 (9.8 - 11.7%) -- possible 9HKO
  60.  
  61. Tangela is free, just don't get frozen. If you get frozen it's down the shitter for you. Giga Drain can clean off most of what you took coming in. It's usually better to Knock Off first. You want to weaken his team and get rid of their options, that starts with either clean kills or removing items. Same strat as any other time involving Drampa and Moltres. Knock Off if it's Drampa, Toxic if it's both
  62.  
  63. Zapdos
  64. 0 SpA Politoed Scald vs. 248 HP / 0 SpD Zapdos: 87-103 (22.7 - 26.8%) -- 37.7% chance to 4HKO
  65. 0 SpA Politoed Ice Beam vs. 248 HP / 0 SpD Zapdos: 130-154 (33.9 - 40.2%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
  66. Rain
  67. :umbrella:
  68.  
  69. 8 SpA Zapdos Discharge vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Politoed: 210-248 (54.6 - 64.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
  70. 8 SpA Zapdos Hurricane vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Politoed: 144-171 (37.5 - 44.5%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
  71.  
  72. You can kill Politoed with Zapdos but you're taking a huge risk by doing that. For one, you can be burned or frozen. Burn makes Skewda a guaranteed KO from Liquidation and being frozen is hell. Don't do this unless you're already in and it'll kill. Don't fuck around with such an important piece, just swap to Mag or Tangela
