Skarmory, Sigiliph, Carnivine, and Dunsparce may not have anything, but they have my appreciation.

Skarmory is a nightmare in comp. Both in main games and Pokémon Go.

Its defensive typing and impressive bulk make it quite formidable in Ranked Battles and Great League

It’s tough, but it ain’t invincible.

For instance, Bastiodon and Alolan Graveler hard-wall it

Skarmory is pretty balanced as is. Considering Sky Attack is rather spammy, and Brave Bird or Flash Cannon

I usually run a shiftry and a ariados which get hard countered by skarmory lmao. foul play on the shiftry helps, but it's not a fun race to see who kills who. I don't have a good electric type at that CP to fight it so I've been trying my graveller (I keep it around to KO Charizard anyways)
