Overview
Barnshe is a very frail Tem with a strong offensive presence and a variety of support options. It has access several very hard-hitting Wind moves, and it can boost their damage even further with the Air Specialist trait and/or Hand Fan gear. Its Mental coverage, whilst less varied, is still sufficient to check Neutral and Melee threats. Neutrality allows Barnshe to ignore all status effects, notably letting it swap safely into Toxics it wants to check without fearing the Poison ticks.

Description
(1.3 DUKE'S NOTES - BARNSHE GOT LIKE A 12.5% INCREASE TO ITS BASE HP AND ITS STILL GLASSY. NOTABLY, BARNSHE DOES NOT SUFFER ANY PENALTY FROM MOM'S LUNCH, WHICH IS INTERESTING FOR DEFENSIVE TEAMS, IF NOT FOR PISS-POOR BULK ON THE PHYSICAL SIDE.)
Barnshe's a classic glass cannon - poor defensive stats aside from a decent special defense, and a useful defensive trait in Neutrality. What Barnshe lacks in defenses it makes up for in offensive output.
Barnshe has access to three great techniques on both of its STAB types. For wind, it gets Wind Burst, Tornado, and Hypoxia. For mental, it gets Energy Manipulation, Beta Burst and Gamma Burst. These offer a mix of priority, power, and stamina efficiency. This moveset favours the priority and stamina management offered by Energy Manipulation over the raw power of Gamma Burst, and the efficiency of Wind Burst over the power of Hypoxia. Depending on the team, you may wish to swap those around, Tornado is really the only common move Barnshe runs. If you wish to go for utility moves, Turbo, Relax, and Bamboozle can all offer something as well.
Barnshe's ideal partners can help its typing issues defensively, or apply Sparks to help it destroy targets before it gets destroyed itself.
