    Ha. Base set Sandshrew is almost entirely superior to this guy. Your goal with a pokemon like this is to stall out for an evolution. This guy needs to drop his shield to attack, which is a notable liability. Brock’s Sandslash (Gym Challenge,) on the other end of the spectrum, is generally better than fossil sandslash thanks to its (bizarrely off-flavor for Brock) ability to poison the foe.
