Tentacruel is an epic mixed sweeper. He can launch epic STAB Water attacks from his huge special, and Swords Dance lets him bring his attack up considerably, too. Screech and Toxic will force switches. Attacks like Acid, Poison Sting, Blizzard, and Hydro Pump paired with Tentacruel's offensive stats are very devastating to those who don't resist. SD + legal Wrap will allow Tentacruel to inflict some cruel and unusual punishment.
Tentacruel is a hybrid sweeper that focuses more on Special. Swords Dance and Screech are available if you want to use him Physically with Wrap, Poison attacks or his other Normal moves. He's still the holder of strongest Water attacks and can brush off Electrics and Psychics moderately well. Toxic Wrapping is useful too as Tentacruel can his most Pokemon hard with his Water attacks to force more switches. |

Tentacruel is a cool Pokémon - with his 358 Special stat and access to Swords Dance, you're gonna wreck up damage within no time as nothing resists both Water and Poison except another Tentacruel. Screech also works if you want to force a switch rather than boost Tentacruel. Barrier is available to cover for Grounds and Bugs hitting you, which can also make Tentacruel a superb wall late in the game when Psychics and Electrics are gone.
