    One other thing worth pointing out about this Pachirisu is it having Nuzzle and Super Fang, giving it two advantages:
    1. Both attacks aren't at all reliant on attacking stats to do what they have to, allowing Pachirisu to focus entirely on its Defensive stats and still do meaningful offense.
    2. Having such attacks means that being Taunted means pretty much nothing to it.

    It just goes to show that even with the insane power levels of late game mons, there are still instances where something quirky can make its mark.
