This Pokémon is good for battling when used correctly. They generally have bad defense against fire type moves, but with the move Swords Dance, they can be unstoppable. Teach your Pokémon Swords Dance and raise it to a sustainable level. In battle, have it use Swords Dance over and over, until its attack is maxed out. Your opponent will think this is a last resort and proceed to slack off. Then, when Attack is maxed, attack with Hammer Arm. DEMOLISH YOUR OPPONENT!!!!!! (I was the victim of this strategy.)
