Shiftry Moveset

[filisek]

So,post here your ideas about moveset for Shiftry,please :)

[Lion Heart]

Alrighty then.

Shiftry (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 60 HP / 100 Def / 12 Spd / 212 SAtk / 124 SDef
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Sunny Day
- Solar Beam
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Synthesis
Sunnybeaming Shiftry, sorta his standard, but I put Synthesis in because with the extra Speed from Sunny Day he could make use of it.

Shiftry (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Early Bird
EVs: 60 HP / 252 Atk / 20 Def / 104 Spd / 72 SDef
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Swords Dance
- Explosion
- Shadow Ball
- Brick Break
Just a little something different, Swords Dance to get some Attacking power, then try to sweep, Explode when you are about to die.
I think he is to weak defensively to pull this set off though.

Shiftry (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Early Bird
EVs: 124 HP / 192 Def / 192 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Rest
- Toxic
- Protect
- Substitute
Hehehe... Toxic, then stall with Protect and Sub, then Rest, enjoy waking up after 1 turn because of Early Bird and repeat.
People will not see this coming and will most likely not send a Steel in against him until it's to late, as they will have expected only Sunnybeaming from Shiftry.

I can make some more if you want, he has a pretty good movepool.

Such a good movesets,thanks.I think that i will definetely choose one of them ;)

[Lion Heart]

Mad as, glad you liked them.

[Spike Razzor]

Lion Heart, dude... Not every Pokemon is good at Protect/Toxic... And Shifty can also Leech Seed, so it needs that or it just fails.

[Lion Heart]

I know not every pokemon can do it, but Shiftry can, they only need to have a decent amount of Speed to get up Sub first.

You could try it with Leech Seed > Toxic, I like Toxic because you have lefties recovering you anyway.

[Spike Razzor]

Its all good until they keep attacking and breaking your sub... Or Skarm comes out and shuffles up your team O.O!

[Lion Heart]

That's why you use Protect + Sub.

It gets you 2 free turns sorta thing.

With Leech Seed though, you'd really only need Sub, and could replace Protect with something else....

Sub/Leech Seed/Protect/Toxic for total annoyment, stopped in it's tracks by Grass/Poisons though (Venusaur, Vileplume, Victreebel, etc..)
