Competitive Strategy
Decidueye is a Grass/Ghost special attacker and utility Pokemon. Spirit Shackle hits and traps the target, preventing switches and locking in a matchup, while Leaf Storm and Shadow Ball provide strong dual STAB. 100 Special Attack and 100 Special Defense let it threaten and take special hits, and Long Reach keeps it safe from contact abilities. Its typing leaves it weak to Fire, Flying, Ice, Dark, and Ghost, so bring it in on a resisted hit and pair it with partners covering those matchups. Defog and U-turn add team support and safe pivoting.
