Editor analysis

Vigoroth has returned to terrorize veteran players, this time with STAB Scratch as its Fast Attack. It will be scrapping for Lickilicky's safe swap role, with less bulk than other Normal types but impressive damage output. Rock Slide has been its coverage move of choice in the past, but it can make use of Brick Brick or Bulldoze, too.
