OK, I hate single battles, they're soooo boring. Doubles really spice it up.
What do you think of my Cresselia?
Cresselia@Leftovers
Trait: Levitate
Nature: Bold
EVS: 252 HP/ 120 DEF/136 SP. DEF
Icebeam/Psychic
Thunderwave/Toxic
Moonlight
Lunar Dance
Really my major question is Icebeam or Psychic. And Thunderwave or Lunar Dance.
Thanx for the rate in advance!

In advance, I would like to remind people that Cresselina is considered Uber by many competition's standards.
Cresselina @ Leftovers/Burn or Toxic Orb
Bold
252 HP, 128 DEF, 128 Sp. DEF
- Psycho Shift (if with orbs)/ Thunder Wave
- Future Sight/Aurora Beam/Ice Beam
- Moon Light
- Lunar Dance
That's my opinion. If I have to choose an attack over Future Sight, Ice Beam has better type coverage in competitive play (which for most parts, Cresselina is banned:pirate:).

Actually a uber is a Pokemon with above a 600 Total Base Stat. Cresselia is right at 600, along with Manaphy, Shaymin, Jirachi, and Celebi.

Mew is 600, and it's banned for its high versatility, Slaking is 670 and is NOT ban due to its awesome ability. Well I guess I was mistaken, I thought Cresselina was 670.

Celebi isn't uber due to numerous weaknesses.
Shaymin is sometimes banned, not all the time since it has numerous weaknesses, but less than Celebi.
I was thinking if I use the orbs and Psycho Shift, why can't I just use Toxic? It will protect me from damaging myself.

You can do whatever you want with it, although Psycho Shift will tell the opponent not to use any status inducing moves against you which is a small boost in advantage. (Unless it's Spore)
I forgot about Toxic, that or Thunder Wave is fine.

Over 600 does not make a pokemon uber, you have to also factor in weakness, abilities, type, and movepool.

here's several Cressy movesets for you to delve in that i prefer over standard resttalk cressy:
Cresselia @ Leftovers
Bold Nature
252 HP/184 DEF/72 SP ATK
-Psychic/Ice Beam
-Charge Beam
-Substitute
-Calm Mind
CM cressy. substitute makes it top notch vs blissey and any status inflicters. psychic prevents gengar from destroying sub and putting it to sleep.
Cresselia @ Light Clay
Bold Nature
244 HP/192 DEF/72 SP ATK
-Psychic
-Reflect
-Light Screen
-Thunderwave
not many people use brick break anymore because... well, Close Combat. it's fun to take advantage of that and giving freedom to your fragile powerhouses.
Cresselia @ Leftovers
Calm Nature
252 HP/212 SP DEF/44 DEF
-Ice Beam
-Calm Mind
-Substitute
-Thunderwave/Trick Room
complete special wall and team support. rapes Blissey and sets Trick Room for slower, yet bulkier, sweepers like Torterra, Dusknoir, Snorlax, Camerupt, Cacturne, Octillery, and Slowbro/Slowking.

I can't use Trick Room, I have a Rhyperior that has low speed, but it has Avalanche, which relies on speed. Cresselia is with it just to help that levitate.

I was thinking Icebeam/T-wave.
T-wave cant hit Ground types so I'll just Icebeam them 0 . 0
