▸ How it works
Basculegion-M provides the strongest Last Respects trigger in the format while Sneasler applies turn-one pressure that forces the opponent to play around two threats simultaneously.
▸ Strengths
- +Wave Crash + Last Respects gives you a Water/Ghost STAB combo that few cores resist.
- +Sneasler's Fake Out and Unburden Acrobatics give you both immediate disruption and end-game cleanup.
- +Two strong physical attackers means Reflect/Wide Guard answers from the opposing team get split thin.
▸ Weaknesses
- −Heavily weak to Fairy and Psychic attacks — both common in the meta from Floette-Eternal and Espeon.
- −Last Respects loses power without sacrifices; if you can't trade efficiently, the snowball never starts.
- −Both Pokémon prefer to be at full HP — Rocky Helmet damage on switch chips them out of KO ranges.
