Leafeon Set

[sims796]

I am breeding for a Leafeon. I will name it Link. Why? He looks like one. Now, I need a bit of help.


Leafeon@Leftovers
Nature:Jolly
Leaf Blade
Aerial Ace
Swords Dance
Baton Pass


This seems perfect. Is their a more offensive set, or should I stick with Baton Passing Swords Dance?

I also have no clue with EV's. Maybe Speed, Def, & Atk? What should the figues look like?

Leafeon @ Leftovers
Impish Nature
252 HP/196 DEF/60 SPD
-Leaf Blade
-Swords Dance/Yawn
-Substitute/Wish
-Baton Pass/Protect

you can go with Swords Dance + Substitute + Baton Pass or Swords Dance + Baton Pass + Wish or Wish + Yawn + Protect.

the first set allows you to choose whether to pass a sub to a special-oriented poke or pass the swords dance to a physical poke. the second allows you to either pass the sd or use wish for the expectant switch. the last allows you to stall with forcing someone to switch out or go to sleep and then passing the wish to something that is more suited to start sweeping.

not a fan of leafeon, but the last set would be an interesting one. you may also want to consider Roar for hazing + SR damage.

Thanks,Samson. Passing Substitute + Swords Dance sounds great.

This is a good set!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Another thing you can consider is a Leafeon with Curse; It has the attack and defense to back it up. It can become quite a fun tank.

-X-Scissor
-Curse
-Synthesis

bug and grass is not the best coverage. instead maybey quick attack for the first strike.

[Deathmage129]

I guess you could use Quick Attack, but it's low power doesn't seem like it would do much; even with 6 attack. But it would let you get the first stroke and maybe finish off weaker pokemon. though still; Grass/Normal isn't really good type coverage either.

[sims796]

As much as I wanted a grass type Eeveelution, Leafeon has got the raw end of the stick, or however that saying goes. His moves leaves very little coverage. But he has excellent passing capabilities. Samson once said I should use Natural Gift. Sounds great, but I truly hate that move.

[Deathmage129]

Hmm, I have no experience with Natural Gift so I can't say anything. But I guess Aerial Ace could work too. Grass/Flying covers a decent amount of typing. though you almost always going to be walled by Steels.
