is this a good pokemon white startegy?

ok so i have a giriina that knows destiny bond and i have a salamence that knows protect, and i made a stratgy / combo with them can you rate it (for a launcher battle)

ok so first giritina has a focus sashnext,i use destiny bond which usally is the last move because it is slow,next i have one hp and he kills me and he dies to so then i send out salamencenext, i keep useing protect until i have enough points to use a revive and i revive giritina and keep repeating the same thing!is that a good strategy? please rate!

It’s a decent strategy, but if you have pokemon like Giaratina and Salamance, you shouldn’t have too much trouble against the opponent. it would be easier (time wise, money wise, and would keep Giratina’s happiness up) to just sweep with them. Since you mentioned using Revive, I assume this is for in-game. (you can’t use those type of items in wifi battles.)

-Protect loses accuracy when used repeatedly, so it wouldn’t guarantee safety for Salamence.

-Salamence has high attack power, so having him just stall would be a waste of that attack power.

-Giratina has massive HP, so just using him as a target like that would be wasting his potential as well.

-Focus sashonly activates when the holder is at full HP. A pokemon like Giratina is way to powerful to get OHKO’d by a lot of things, and definitely not from an in-game opponent.

Giratina’s far too powerful to use as a wall. Protect will fail.
