in all honesty I have 3 different ways to buff sceptile. A. give it more variety in it movepool(specifically special attacks). B. switch ATK with SpATK like you said while also changing its ability to benefit its swapped ATK stat(tough claws, sharpness, sheer force, etc.) its fast enough as it is so it doesn't need to be faster. and of course C. which is just swapping ATK with SpATK stat like you said.
Something that needs to be mentioned tho, stat spreads for VGC are usually worked around the current meta. If you want to have an offensive mon like Blaziken, you usually don't always want or need it to have 252 attack and speed, as Speed boost usually gives him an advantage over most mons even if at 140 EVs, also on the offensive side, look out which Pokémon he got favorable matchups, and try to get a good dmg balance. As this is lvl 50, most of the times you wont be OHKO mons unless they are 4x weak, or seriously frail.
Great video man! Super informative and well edited :)
Ain't no way the big man himself commented on the vid
You guys do good work 👏
Bro TH-cam really have been recommending small creators, that's good to see, keep up the good work bro
Thanks homie, this helps me pump out more work!
I mean Blaziken should’ve been mentioned for Gen 3 since it was used more than the other starters with Speed Boost which made it really good
I don't play doubles but I want Sceptile to get reworked by swapping it's atk and spatk and maybe add a few speed to be 125
Understandable, maybe acrobatics will finally be useful on it
@@ramen_juice Yeah Acrobatics+ Unburden

Sceptile needs sleep powder and more special coverage.
Unburden + sleep powder will go absolutely crazy
i mean if one of best features in dlc was something cut out that sould be in base game that that dlc isnt good at all
Boost the video!!!

Definitely. Makes me want to try a Howl support with Blaziken....
Bro i swear try psychic Seed breaking swipe sceptile, its really good
Damn I gotta try that now ty
Praying for Mega Incineroar who has Parting Shot on entry as an Ability 👏
Now imagine it still running parting shot, that's -2 atk and sp atk turn 1
It’s working
Give Swampert a better ability and it'd have more usage
Agreed, I would prefer Swift Swim compated to Damp
