Guide
This is an old build. It may be outdated, but it could still work. This is the build I used to reach Veteran Class for the first time. However, there are many better ways to go.
This build is used for offense and KO'ing opponents quickly while also being able to heal before taking more damage.
-Start with Substitute so you can dash into the central area without having to go around the wall or use the Eject Button.
-Use the central area as often as possible to get to level 7 as fast as you can, because Greninja is 10 times better than Frogadier.
-Use Smokescreen and Eject Button to get away from tight situations.
-Use Smokescreen to set up a surprise attack that the opponent never sees coming. This can also be used to get to a goal zone without being spotted.
-Use Water Shuriken to heal so you can stay in the battle longer. Shell Bell also boosts the amount healed.
- Muscle Band adds that bit of damage that can steal a KO with a basic attack.
-Score Shield is an amazing item and, even with the new nerf it received, I think it should be part every build. It can give you the extra bit of time that you need to score a big game-changing goal.
-EDIT: While Score Shield can be very helpful, it is extremely situational and shouldn't be used as often as I said. Alternatively, you can use Wise Glasses or Sp. Atk. Specs to boost your Sp. Atk.
