Ribombee is horrible in National Dex AG. It only has 1% usage, so that itself should be a warning on how bad this thing is. On top of that, it doesn’t have very exclusive support options. First, it is a very niche web setter. It is outclassed by shuckle, smeargle and slurpuff. It doesn’t have very many other unique options. Defog is widespread, Stun spore is not that useful, aromatherapy is on support xerneas, quiver dance passing can be done by volcarona or smeargle much better and baton pass is something that smeargle can do again. If you want to use screens, use a prankster pokeymans. Here are some quotes from the almighty ice master and support crew:

Icemaster — Today at 1:32 PMRibombee is a very niche webs lead. Has no other reason to be usedIcemaster — Today at 1:32 PMAnd shuckle, and smeargle are better webbers than itIcemaster — Today at 1:33 PM@hello there you can try doing lead quiver dance pass. Don’t expect it to go well thoughIcemaster — Today at 1:34 PMIt’s not a particularly great strategyIcemaster — Today at 1:34 PMBut it probably the only way you can use ribombeePwOWOkeymh — Today at 1:37 PMYeah physdef aroma t wave xern is a knock off switch in (assuring that support xerneas exists lel)
