Quick Frontier question

I meant like is it useful... does it work well I should of said I guess.

Is it worth using in my team?
 
Yeah, I was thinking of using BP with my Scizor. Would that be a good idea? I haven't decided what Pokemon to use it with though.
 
Yeah,with Scizor you could BP Agility,SD,and Silver Wind.
But the eeveeloutions are also pretty good BPers as well.
 
Espeon is a good BPer.
 
IMO, no please. Baton Passing depends greatly on what your opponent is using. It is then VERY risky to attempt to set-up while the opponent Statuses/does heavy damage on you. Ninjask is VERY frail, Scizor dies to a Fire attack. And it is VERY wasteful that the other 2 pokemon depend on one SINGLE pokemon (means they can't attack on their own). What happens of your BP-er dies?

Whereas NetBattle is different. There are 6 pokemon being played, so there are more options to consider. Also, there are many more move combos that you have the luxury of playing. You can play with prediction too, and mess with the opponent's mind.

Here instead, go with the tried-and-tested formula. 2 sweepers and a tank, or 3 sweepers if you want.
 
Espeon is a Special Annoyer, not a Baton Passer. Umbreon is an Annoying Baton Passer.

Trait: Synchronise
Bold nature
- Moonlight
- Toxic
- Confuse Ray/Will-o'-Whisp/Sunstitute
- Baton Pass
 
Umbreon can´t W-o-w

I say it doesn´t work.

Like crudent said you have few things to baton pass.
Also it´s useless in facilities like...

Arena - Where you can´t Baton Pass
Palace - Where you can´t control what you´ll use/when you´ll Baton Pass
Pike/Pyramid - If the only Pokémon alive is the Baton Passer, you have an imense problem
Dome - You can use only two Pokémon, if the Baton Passed Pokémon isn´t strong enough, all you´ll have to use is the Baton Passer, which can do almost nothing.

I.e. Everywhere besides Tower O_o
 
i used it to great effect in the battle factory, just be careful because it passes status conditions too
i believe my team was:
Ninjask@focus band
swords dance
silver wind
baton pass

the rest really isnt important
Chansey

Banette
 
but it does not work in the araena because you cant swich there
