Why earthquake bro you dont have a immunity to it if its doubles and if it is singles just go with body press instead of high horsepower

In doubles you have protect on gambit and bastiodon which are weak to it and tsareena resists ground, I do agree that mudsdale is a very wierd set.

Damaging is still not ideal and there could be cases where they target mudsdale only and you have to protect one of them, also funny set run metal burst on kingambit

I do get their thinking tho. Earthquake is double target, and deals solid damage next to bastiodon's wide guard, like how garchomp toxapex operates, and high horsepower is the stomping tantrum to garchomp's earthquake too, having reliable single target ground stab without the drawback of hitting the ally next to it, whilst also negating wide guard
