    Honestly Life Orb is better since the boost is bigger and it applies to all attacks, not just supereffective ones. the recoil is meh but Vire doesn't mind it much.

    Granted, nothing can stop Muk. Not even a Choice Banded EQ from a Garchomp, who's been Baton-passed 3 Swords Dance, can stop it. He can then counter with lick, for an OHKO. I did the calcs.

    Vire isn't really meant to take much hits anyway. Anyone who falls from one Focus Blast from Raichu doesn't care about losing health from Life Orb.

    Well people, I'm looking for another certain pokemon.

    Recently, my team's been running with no dragons. I wanna take Dragonite, my old fav dragon, out for a spin with a Dragon Dance setup; does anyone have a setup?

    Out of curiosity why a dragon? It's not like they're mandatory or anything.

    but as for Dragonite run the DD set with some Outrage action, preferably with Fire Punch and Earthquake as well. Too lazy to post the EVs and whatnot.

    Ill do that lol

    Dragonite@Leftovers / Life Orb / Lum Berry
    Jolly Nature
    56 HP / 252 Atk / 200 Speed
    - Fire Punch / Fire Blast
    - outrage
    - Dragon Dance
    - Earthquake

    This is actually a really nice set.

    This is one thing Mence and Garchomp cant do, Dragon Dance and then outrage =).

    Fire Punch does more to bronzong, whilst Fire Blast does more to Forry, Skarm etc.

    @Anti-Pop; I've decided that I bring back my old favorite pokemon to join my team. I also think Dragonite is much less expected, so it's of high preference by me to be the anti-standard to say.

    @Dark_Azelf: I was expecting the DD standard, but I'll try to put it into action. Thanks.

    Shuckle would have to be the worst pokemon ever lol


    Shuckle@leftovers
    252 HP / 96 Def / 160 SpD
    impish nature
    ~ Body Slam / Knock Off
    ~ Toxic / Stealth Rock
    ~ Encore
    ~ Rest

    Body Slam for parahax.

    Body Slam is illegal with Knock Off btw, so one or the other in that first slot.

    This is basically what I have, except

    W/ Leftovers
    Toxic
    Rest
    Sandstorm
    Silverwind


    Its a pretty big annoyance with its def and sp def stat, toxic, rest and sandstorm. And a move that never misses.

    Probably needs Knock Off to kill Banded/specs Attackers and stop Lefties recovery.

    Also I'd EV more towards Defnese since Sand Stream can take care of SDef.

    Sorry but not many people have time to think up entire teams, or even just the sets. I can help with the probopass though, this set brought me mixed success:
    Probopass@Lefties
    Relaxed
    252HP/200SpDef/56SpAtt
    Rest
    Sleep Talk/Thunderwave
    Flash Cannon
    Stealth Rock/Sandstorm

    Special Wall. Relaxed nature boosts its regular defence to allow it to survive the occasional physical attack if needs be (Not recommended though). Rest is it's healing move, then the next slot varies. Sleep talk allows it to carry on going while it rests, but you could end up using stealth rock over and over again, which isnt exactly helpful. T-wave is useful for switch outs, but leaves you doing nothin for 2 turns while you rest. Flash cannon is the viable STAB move. The the last slot is again personal preference. SR delivers a single lump of damage, while Sandstorm is a continual stream. It works well until a fighting move comes along, no quantity of defence is gonna soften up a quad weakness.

    When Milotic runs Bold, it's a great Mixed Wall to run with (Resttalk set works great.) If you wanna go Calm nature, then Sp. sponge has its name on it, depending on the EVs you give it.

    I like to run this as a mixed wall.

    Milotic@Leftovers
    Bold
    252HP/232def/24sp.atk

    Ice Beam
    HP Electric
    Rest
    Sleep Talk

    This set has its purposes. Mockery of a boltbeam gives me Gyarados coverage, but even the standard fire types can come in. I could drop Ice Beam for Surf, but meh... I would lose a lot of coverage.

    Why do people always want so much coverage on their walls? Taking away Milotic's STAB move is a really bad idea.
