That attack-type combination should cover all opposing types with at least 1x damage.

Yes but it does but

is more often supereffective and magneton and lanturn aren't enough to use the Dragon Claw/HP Fire combo.

No point using Sub if you're not going to stall with Leech Seed, IMO.

Sceptile @ Petaya Berry
EV: 6 HP, 252 Speed, 252 Sp Att
Nature: + Speed/Sp Att, - Att
Leaf Blade
Crunch/Thunderpunch/Leech Seed/Quick Attack
HP Ice/Fire
Dragon Claw/Substitute

Despite the n00bish look of the EVs, it's the best setup for Sceptile. Max speed + Timid makes you equal with Timid Dugtrio and Alakazam, but Zam will probably barely survive Crunch and Duggy falls easily to Leaf Blade.

i have sub so i can block para and get free hits when they switch and a high chance of activating petaya berry... leech seed is a waste of a slot IMO as id rather sweep and get it over with then stall for 100 turn battles

This set works. I killed a cornered bliss with it, the leech seed with the sub worked wonders. Then I just leaf bladed it because my net gain was more than seimic toss, and I subbed everyonce in a while.

try it =D

leech seed just lets you stall them down to a point where you can sweep them....
