Toxicroak is a frog. It does.
==Introduction==
==Introduction==
Toxicroak is a frog. They does.
Looks like the cheeky frog is up to its zoning antics once again! Toxicroak loves to use its projectile tools to keep out the opponent and keep them on their toes! With incredible zoning tools such as 5B and 2B, a potent poison mechanic and an incredible super that can lead into devastating damage, Toxicroak dominates any opponent who dares to play into its trap!
 
 
However, all this talk of projectiles has left Toxie on the frail front in close-quarters combat. It is tied with Mienshao for the lowest health and endurance, and with almost no potent up-close moves, its trap can fall apart if the opponent closes the distance. But if you like poisonous zoners with attitude, Toxie is the one for you!

Toxicroak is a frog. It does.

Introduction

Looks like the cheeky frog is up to its zoning antics once again! Toxicroak loves to use its projectile tools to keep out the opponent and keep them on their toes! With incredible zoning tools such as 5B and 2B, a potent poison mechanic and an incredible super that can lead into devastating damage, Toxicroak dominates any opponent who dares to play into its trap!


However, all this talk of projectiles has left Toxie on the frail front in close-quarters combat. It is tied with Mienshao for the lowest health and endurance, and with almost no potent up-close moves, its trap can fall apart if the opponent closes the distance. But if you like poisonous zoners with attitude, Toxie is the one for you!


Playstyle
PKMNCC Toxicroak NavboxIcon.png Toxicroak is a keep-away zoner that uses a variety of potent and toxic tools to keep the opponent out.
Pick if you like Avoid if you dislike
  • Keepaway King: 5B, 4B, and 2B all help establish screen-space, dominating opponents without the tools to navigate them.
  • Damage Over Time: Toxicroak's poison mechanic slowly drains the opponent's lifebar until Croak is parried or bursted.
  • Unblockable Super: 624b is a 2 bar unblockable bubble with a lingering hitbox that both dominates neutral and leads to massive damage with the right setup.
  • Fragile Frog: Tied for the lowest health and guard value, Croak's gameplan can fall apart quickly if their opponent manages to close the distance.
  • Keep Them at Projectiles' Length: As mentioned by the above, Croak struggles greatly with close range, and can be destroyed quickly if it doesn't regain distance.

  • You cannot change the direction after you begin moving. You can only change direction before the movement starts
  • While it sends you downward, doing j5B to try to go from either the upward or forward direction to the downward will not work, as you're effectively releasing the input instead of changing it
  • Can be used to escape the corner, especially when angled upwards
