Request an Individual Move Set Thread

[Dark Azelf]

Thanks azonic. Oh yeah I forgot I got the moveset for a choice scarfer gallade, but does anyone have a good ev spread?

Gallade is aweful as a scarfer, if you want a scarfer with the same typing, just use Medicham, it has pure power, which Gallade doesnt.

I heard it was good for those annoying heracrosses and some other baddies.

 

[Azonic]

I'd use Medicham though. Its more annoying to beat. And Gallade is supposed to be a Semi-Sweeper seeing that Special Defense.

 

[Justin T]

Well in that case T_S said it would be good as a double status then:

Gallade@Leftovers
Adamant
252 Atk, 212 HP, 44 Def

Hypnosis
Will-o-Wisp / Thunder Wave
Psycho Cut / Night Slash
Close Combat

Of course, but when it comes to Choice Banding, Gallade is much better.

gallade @lefties
adamant
steadfast
Ev's: 244 HP / 160 Atk / 104 Spd

Hey guys I heard someone had a choice scarf gallade and it takes out choice scarf heracross and things like weezing and gliscor, so it can't be all that bad.

The thing is....
all Scarfers are bad :/

 

[Justin T]

So should I just use it as a double status?

 

[luke]

flamehaze, not "all" scarfers are bad. I'll admit I'm not a fan of Scarfing Pokemon besides Porygon-Z. But sometimes Scarfing a Pokemon not normally Scarfed can make for a nice surprise.

 

[flamehaze94]

And then when it outspeeds something, the suprise is over meaning it gets walled to bits and pieces because you're lacking the power offered by CB, CSpecs, or even LO, so you're forced into using one move over and over again, and now you have a near useless sweeper on your team..

Scarf in Ubers is alright though, as they can draw their power from elsewhere.

 

[Justin T]

So would it be good as a double status or not lol?

 

[Le_Avatar]

Hi there, I need help for the last move on this thing... And also not sure of item to give it.
No hidden power please, the one it got is awful but the thing is already bred :)

Yanmega
modest (+Sp.Atk -Atk)
252 Sp.Atk / 252 Spd / 6 Sp.Def
- Bug Buzz
- Protect
- Air Slash / Hypnosis
- ???

Thx a lot

 

[Justin T]

Ok I give up I don't know what to do. Would someone mind just telling me what the best choice for adamant gallade would be?

Gallade @ Choice Band
Trait: Steadfast
EVs: 64HP / 252Atk / 192Spd
Adamant nature(+Atk, -SpAtk)
- Close Combat
- Night Slash
- Psycho Cut
- Ice Punch

Better than Hera and Medicham as a generic CBer imo.

 

[Justin T]

Wow that looks awsome thank you so much flamehaze

 

[ABYAY]

Getting Ice Punch can be an issue though... Stone Edge or Leaf Blade can go over as options.

Heh, Scarfer's aren't bad if you have tanks to take some blows as an emergency. I run a Scarf'd Gardevoir; rips up most other sweepers like Gengar and Starmie like paper. They expect the Hypnosis/T-Wave/W-o-W, then get blown up by a Focus Blast or Thunderbolt, something along those lines.

 

[Shiny]

Ok so you all know I post crazy movesets, so this time I won't disapoint with a really bad Cradily set 8D

@ Leftovers
Bold
222Hp / 88Def / 200SDef
Suction Cups
- Energy Ball
- Toxic
- Confuse Ray
- Leech Seed

 

[Dark Destiny]

can someone list some good special sweepers please?

 

[PhoenixFlare]

can someone list some good special sweepers please?

Gengar, Azelf, Starmie, Porygon-Z, Alakazam, Specsmence, etc.
