Is it a good idea to use Dusknoir in Alpha Sapphire?

Question

I'm just wondering because I was told its speed was horrible. I know this is sort of an opinion question but I need help.

I plan on trading it with the reaper cloth today becuz my friend is coming over and she's bring her 3DS. I'm going to challenge the Elite Four after, but I want six pokemon, what should I do? (This is meant for Infinity, but I'm okay if someone else answers.)

Answer 1

No.

I know that sounds harsh, but Dusknoir is kind of more built for the Meta-game than in-game. There is a lack of good Ghost types in Hoenn, but I guess you can always trade for one. If not, I think that (Mega) Bannette [**At 555 BST over Dusknoir's 525**] is a better Pokemon overall.

Also, getting Dusknoir is a kind of a difficult process (Unless you already have one, that is,), what with trading a Dusclops that's holding a Reaper Cloth (meaning you'll have to find one too).

Also, it is better to have a Dark type because you'll be at a disadvantage for two of the four elite $ matches (Dark and Ghost).
