Guide
WIP
In a sense, Greninja plays like Cinderace, though not as strong. You want to get in, put out damage, then retreat. Focus Band helps you stay alive longer to get in and out of team fights. The longer you're alive, the better.
Muscle Band is pretty much standard for most Pokemon based around Basic attacks like Greninja. Tickle down opposing HP bars and swoop in for the finish with Surf. Letting your tanks chip away HP is advised. Always try to save Surf for the last 25% of the opponents HP, or a little more if you can clean it up with a few basic attacks.
Buddy Barrier is pretty standard on most Pokemon, in all honestly. Helping teammates either finish the fight or kite away is key for Drednaw or Zapdos fights.
Early Game: Choose Bubble immediately. Its your only burst damage out of the gate to KO wild Pokemon for EXP.
