    see exarion’s explanation of tnl AI: http://pastebin.com/dDCH7V19 you want a range of HP where solrock never kills with psychic, but does with SB. unfort -spdef always dies to luna psychic from any torrent. thus, being above max sol psy damage but within luna psy range, you can avoid dangerous setup moves (sunny day, light screen, calm mind) bc they will attack if they target you (if luna psy is a range and its “simulated roll” wouldn’t kill you, it will select LS or CM--my theory) DON’T switch castform to slot 2. this can trigger sunny day if solrock targets it. other slaves always die to any move, so they are safe.

    • naughty (any level)

      sol/luna psychic: L38: 38-45, 53-63 L39: 38-45, 53-63 L40: 36-43, 51-60 on any level, dive strats T1: x spe (heal if necessary) T2: dive solrock if T1 SB charge, surf otherwise T3+: surf to kill sol, then again to kill luna, or dive if you surfed T2. can setup x spec if CM or LS, but it might be rip (abraless means 1 less slave to sack)
