Slush Rush Alolan Sandslash Sweep

Slush Rush is Sandslash's ability which doubles its speed in hail. While it doesn't very high attack stat (100), it does have access to Swords Dance and the high-power (but risky) Triple Axel (3 hits for 120BP total). Groundium-Z can be used in National Dex for a single high power attack with good coverage. Alolan Ninetales with Snow Warning sets hail on entry. To open, Grudge can be used to deplete PP of an opponent's super-effective Fire attack, giving Sandslash a chance to set up against its impaired movepool. Encore is used against opponents that set up, or Aurora Veil can be used to simply increase defenses for Sandslash.
