I know in terms of type match up Cyndaquil would've been a better choice, but I wanted to weaken Scyther with Totodile first so Cyndaquil could take Scyther down with two Embers. If I started with Cyndaquil, it likely would've fainted before the end of the battle, leaving it to Totodile. It's better to end a battle with your Pokémon having a positive type match up rather than a negative one.
Good match
It looks interesting
why did you put poor Totodile through that when u could have lead with Cyndaquil?!
