Better Nerf Greninja

[MLGirby]

So I've happened to make a greninja moveset that works very well, and no one sees it coming. Greninja@Life Orb Surf Dark Pulae Extrasensory Attract. Now you may be asking me,"Why do you use attract at all?" And to you my answer is because greninja is one of the fastest pokemon in the game it can easily use attract to pressure the opponent into a bad switch in or it will get you a free turn as the pokemon you used attract on will likely Be infatuated. No one expects attract greninja.

Attract has no viability competitively, whether or not it works is entirely dependent on the other Pokemon's gender. Greninja has an amazing movepool to pull from (Gunk Shot, Low Kick, Surf, Ice Beam, Extrasensory, Dark Pulse, Grass Knot, Hidden Power, Spikes and Toxic Spikes), I'd highly advise choosing a better coverage move.

yeah, they may not expect an attract greninja, but they won't be afraid or pressured.

The thing is, Greninja already pressures the opponent with its amazing coverage, nothing really wants to switch into it, not only is a move like Attract awful, its redundant.

Yes, Attract is horrible and if the gender is the biggest role ever. If it is female then it has more of a chance because most people use male pokemons for some reason, but when you are allowed to use Greninja, it is usaully against legends with no gender the oppoent usaully switchs out some Greninja comes in play, and Attract fades out when you switch out... And to go with all that horribleness, Attract only sometimes immolziaties the opposing Pokemon... :/ Yeah, Attract is the worst

if someone were to use attract on me, i would laugh. attract is like a less reliable paralyze.

That doesn't come with the speed drop no matter how fast you are... I wouldn't laugh because it wouldn't even be funny if someone used Attract in competitive battling, it shows lack of experience with team building ;-; (Even though Drag beat me multiple times xD)

Unfortunately this attract thing was before greninja moved into ubers so I guess it's pointless now. Better nerf greninja.
My username is DragoSlime on showdown @Derpguy64 and I have beaten chopper multiple times.

@Derpguy64 it also depends what kind of team you want me to fight you with. Do you want me to be serious,or make a joke team involving MLG mew, Sanic the Slowbro,and Picasso the SMEARGLE?
