What are the EVs?

What format are you playing?

The devs are 252 attack, 252 up, and 4 in speed, and I am playing VGC 2020

Coaching support is fantastic with assault vest azumarill. Dynamax plus coaching plus AV make it pretty hard to get rid of. Cobalion is a good choice.

Thanks, i will try coaching on pokemon showdown.

You'll probably get a better answer if you ask on Smogon. https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/vgc-ask-a-simple-question-get-a-simple-answer.3588172/

Answer 1

I dont think I ever used Azumarill but I would use a redirector. I chose redirectors if you come against a Pokemon you cant OHKO with aqua jet, so I have two Pokemon that might fit the role.

Indeedee-F @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Psychic Surge
Level: 50
EVs: 252 HP / 212 Def / 44 SpD
Sassy Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Expanding Force
- Follow Me
- Helping Hand
- Protect

Choose Indeedee-F if you want a Pokemon that can somewhat deal damage while still supporting. Its has less health then the next Pokemon but is rather well rounded in its stats (besides attack.)

Amoonguss @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Regenerator
Level: 50
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 184 Def / 72 SpD
Sassy Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 0 Spe
- Pollen Puff
- Rage Powder
- Spore
- Protect

Pick Amoongus if you want to absorb some of Azumarills weaknesses like poision and grass. I also put pollen puff in there if you really want to heal your teammate. However looking at its defenses its a little less well rounded but can still can take hits.

Comments

I think Amoonguss should use sludge bomb instead of pollen puff. STAB and hitting fairies is probably more important than healing teammates.
