Held Items
Battle iItem
Greninja is one of the few Pokémon that can be thought of as a point "marker". It can sow confusion in the minds of opposing players, while mischievously scoring goals.
The item choices reflect this, with Float Stone granting extra mobility. Muscle Band and Energy Amplifier just help its damage output, both individually and in team battles.
Naturally, as an Attacker, Eject Button is the disengage tool you need.
Greninja: Starting Attack
Taking Bubble will allow you to defeat Wild Pokémon quickly, while also being a good tool for hunting down straw opponents with the on-hit slow.
Greninja: Best Moves
Between Smokescreen and Water Shuriken, Greninja beciomes an Attacker adept at diving in and out of battle, avoiding taking major damage itself.
A naturally hyper-mobile Pokémon, you'll want to literally become the ninja in its name in order to score as many points as possible for your team.
