Slurpuff or Aromatisse?

3 minute read

Competitiveandnon-competitive wise. You may want put your answer(s) in 2 sections.

To be honest, I’ll more likely go with Slurpuff because Aromatisse is just butt-ugly looking in my opinion xD But I still want to hear what you think.

For non competitive, it is completely up to preference, but slurpuff does have higher stats, so I would choose it

I would also choose slurpuff for competitive. This thing walled me entirely on my competitive battle.

Slurpuff @ leftoversbold/calm nature252 hp, 252 special defense/physical defense

calm mind

cotton guard

wish

draining kiss

cotton guard boosts your defense by +3, so using only two of them will max out your defense, though you only need to use it once to wall. Calm mind gives you +1 special attack and +1 special defense, so you may need to use two or three to have really good special defense too, but you also increase your special attack, which is great. Wish is to easily heal up, and draining kiss is a good move for it that also heals hp. Use one cotton guard, two if you want to be a troll, and the rest on calm mind and nothing can touch you.

Statwise,Slurpuffis better statwise, having a Base Stat Total of 480, where as Aromatisse has a Base Stat Total of 468. ([Sou][1][rce][2])This meansSlurpuff is better non-competitively.

Competitively, I would say Aromatisse is betterexcept for one thing: Its speed stat of29.That’s right, twenty-nine. one of the lowest speed stats for a fully evolved Pokemon. For a comparison, Snorlax has a speed stat of 30 with a much higher stat total. Moving on, Slurpuff has a movepool that is leaned more towards Grass type moves, learning Energy Ball and Cotton Guard. Aromatisse has a movepool that leans more towards Psychic type moves, learning Psychic and Psyshock. With Aromatisse’s 99 special attack, it can cover its Poison weakness with Psychic, leaving it only weak to Steel Types. Here is a moveset I recommend:

Aromatisse:

So:

These two fairies are well evened, but as a total wise, Slurpuff wins it.

Slurpuff’s stats are well evened. It gets access to Sweet Veil to support your team. Thus, none of your Pokémon can get asleep. This is half-decent. Hypnosis will no longer work on you, nor Spore. I find it pretty occasional, finally. Unburden is its second ability. Oh but come on! You should be using it with berries or gems. It will afterward double your speed, leaving you with a nice sweeper. Although it lacks a bit of special attack, Slurpuff has not a bad movepool. I mean Flamethrower, Energy Ball, Dazzling Gleam and Thunderbolt forms its attacking core. You should give it a Sitrus Berry with the four move above, to get something like this, if Slurpuff shall be your sweeper:

Slurpuff @ Sitrus Berry:Trait: UnburdenEVs: 252 Sp.Atk / 196 Speed / 64 HPModest Nature

And if you want a supporter, it gets Safeguard, which prevent status ailment hitting you, Aromatherapy, Cotton Spore, Light Screen and that’s pretty it. Do not use Slurpuff, it is awful. Except the above set, it MAY work, but not sure.

2 mediocre Pokémons means no choices, if possible. Tryto get a Florges, it is better and by far.But if you shall stick to one of the two, I would pickAromatisse if you play a Hail Room team or double battles,which will be quite popular with Mega-Abomasnow speed reduced. Otherwise, pick Slurpuff for single play.

For competitive, go with Slurpuff. For non-competitive, pick either one. Slurpuff can be a terrifying sweeper with it’s belly drum and unburden. This is what I would recommend:

Slurpuff@ Sitrus berryJolly/Adamant nature252 hp/126 defense/126 special defenseUnburden Nature

Belly Drum

Play Rough

Protect

Wish

Use belly drum to max out your attack and use sitrus berry to restore it up to 75% of your health. Unburden willDOUBLEyour speed, allowing for some sweeps, even with steel types. You then use play rough and sweep teams. Then use Wish and Protect to heal you back up. My Slurpuff was able to defeat a mega mawile with a single play rough, if you want to know how strong you’ll slurpuff will become.
