Guide
Recommend you go either top or bottom lane but not middle at the start.
Go to whichever lane you choose level up for a bit, try to steal some Npc Pokémon from enemies side of the board. But the main point of the build is to level up and get smokescreen and surf asap then just keep swapping through the center of the board to either lane and wait for one or two enemies to be near half HP and that's when you strike.
This build works really well with tanky HP close range attacking characters as they can last a long time and keep enemies off you while you help deal damage but fast attackers are also a good partner to have with you to.
This build can also be used to team wipe from my own experience. I do not have a youtube or way to prove this but take my word on it, it can.
Works Well With
Snorlax is a great example with all-round high HP and Decent Dps. Honestly I think any Snorlax build as a partner would be fine.
Gengar all-round great attacker, best to use builds that are fast and quick at cleaning up kills with things like hex in them as Greninja's partner.
Crusted works okay as one of the few tanky partners to have but would just recommend a Snorlax on the team at all times if possible.
