Request an Individual Move Set Thread

[El Gofre]

Im with airconditioning, those sets aren't reliable. Its quite fun sweeping with a salac berry though :)

 

[Unlimited NiGHTS]

I was thinking of building a Rain Dance team, but since Kyogre's an uber, it wouldn't be as good as I'd like. Well, unless I'm missing something.

I was definitely going to use Kingdra and Kabutops, but I need ideas for the rest of the team. Also, it should be as competitive as possible.

Any thoughts?

 

[El Gofre]

If i remember correctly, bronzong is a staple member of any weather team. Wait for T_S to update the guide he's making on weather teams.

 

[Unlimited NiGHTS]

I'm not entirely sure if I can wait. He might do a Sun Team next. Maybe I should just post a prototype of the team as a new thread and see how it goes?

Ludicolo makes great use of the rain, since with Rain Dish + Leech Seed he doesn't really need the Leftovers recovery, therefore he can set up the rain with Damp Rock and then proceed to stall things

That helps. Half the team is planned now.

Earthquake
Megahorn
Ice Beam
Flamethrower / Shadow Ball

Hello! I want to know if marowak would be good on a resttalking set.
Also, when your resstalking does your pokemon use belly drum?

Marowak @ Thick Club
Nature: Adamant
Ev's: 120 Hp, 138 Spd, 252 Atk
- Belly Drum/Swords Dance
- Rest
- Sleeptalk
- Fire Punch

These ev's are so I can at least outspeed and 2hko a weezing that is trying to haze me
. I don't know if they will use Belly Drum in the sleep, will it just waste my hp or say "your Attack Can't be raised any higher".

 

[Ársa]

Marowak doesn't Rest Talk. You are walled by anything that resists Fire, and they use you as Set-Up Fodder. (OMG, stares at Curselax and Heatran!)

Marowak@Thick Club
Brave
252 Atk, 252 HP, 6 Def
Sturdy

Earthquake
Stone Edge
Double Edge
Fire Punch

Use it on a Trick Room team. This sweeps stuff. Period.

Is this Steelix good?

Steelix@Leftovers
Nature: Impish (-s.atk +def)
Ability: Sturdy
Moves: Toxic, Stone Edge, Gyro Ball, Earthquake
EVs: 252 HP 252 S.DEF 4 ATK

 

[Red X]

Look for the standard set for Skarmory.

 

[Dark Azelf]

Look for the standard set for Skarmory.

Skarmory@Shed Shell / Leftovers
252 HP / 16 ATT / 200 DEF / 40 SP.DEF OR 252 HP / 60 ATT / 196 DEF
Impish nature
- Brave Bird / Drill Peck
- Spikes / Stealth Rock
- Roost
- Whirlwind

Id advise Shed Shell and Brave Bird, so Magnezone wont rape you and you can switch out freely. Brave Bird actually does decent damage to alot of things, it ensures Gyarados doesnt lol at you. Stealth Rock if you team struggles with Gyarados and Salamence, or Spikes just to hit everything part from fliers and levitators.

whats an espeon moveset - i know it has rubbish moves but what moveset should i use on it
i have asked this many times but no-ones replied.

 

[El Gofre]

I would personally use:
Espeon@Choice Specs
Timid
252SpAtt/252Spd/4HP
Psychic
Shadow Ball
Grass Knot
HP [Fighting]
There's probably a better set out there, but this could work. Psychic and shadow ball are your staple attacks, while Grass deals with bulky waters and HP fighting deals with Dark types who are immune to your staple attacks.

 

[Dark Azelf]

You can try EspyJump. I used this for a while

Espeon@Leftovers / Salac Berry
196 HP / 122 Sp.Def / 192 Spe
Timid Nature
~ Substitute
~ Calm Mind
~ Baton Pass
~ Psychic

Set a sub up immidiately to scout what they have as a counter. If you have a Sub set up as a slower opponent comes in, you can freely pass it to an appropriate counter. When facing a weaker special attacker you can begin boosting with Calm Mind, creating an unbreakable Substitute before passing to a sweeper. Zapdos, lucario, Porygon-z, heatran all appreciate these.

Given the sheer number of Tyranitar and to a lesser extent, Hippowdon and Abomasnow, you may want to carry some weather support on your team if you are planning to use this set. It hinders its ability to take special hits as it negates lefties recovery.

Salac berry or leftovers, Salac berry has some advantages, that being it allows you sub down to activate it and pass the speed and makes espeon faster than threats, for example if you set a sub up on the switch, and something like weavile comes in you can sub down whilst it breaks your sub to activate salac berry and have an intact sub and + 1 speed which makes you faster and therefore baton pass to safety or hell even calm mind behind the sub and pass that. Leftovers allows Espy to take hits better. So its up to you.

Evs allow max lefties recovery, 192 evs allows you to outspeed Garchomp, although you can give it more speed (216 EVs) for Mismagius, 347 (240 EVs) for Infernape or max if you want to try your luck against Gengar. Any remaining EVs should go in Special Defense.

 

[Dark Destiny]

well, i've saved this page for future reference, i'm trying to make a espeon like gofre's atm due to the fact i'm using it for battle tower, however i will use dark azelfs when competetive battling. thanks

 

[El Gofre]

No probs, just make sure you switch out when needs be. The loss of a single poke can screw you over verrrry quickly

Btw DA im lovin the quotes in your sig ;)

Hokay I am super new to battling other people, never done it before. :P I would like to give it a shot though so I've been reading everything I can to try and get an idea of what I'm doing. This is what I have (tenatively) planned to use:

Marowak @ thick club
252atk/252speed/6hp
rock head
adamant nature
Swords Dance
Bonemarang
Stone-Edge
Double-Edge/Eartquake

leafeon @ leftovers
252def/100spdef/152hp/6spatk
relaxed nature
wish
yawn
leaf blade
?

froslass @ icy rock
252speed/252spatk/6hp
timid nature
hail
blizzard
confuse ray
destiny bond

tauros @ choice band
252atk/252speed/6hp
jolly nature
intimidate
sleep talk
rest
earthquake
?

vulpix @ quick claw
252speed/252spatk/6hp
modest nature
flamethrower
dig
confuse ray
toxic/will o wisp

SO yeah, I'm pretty hopeless hehe. Any suggestions are welcome, especially what to use for my 6th pokemon. I'm open to change anything but if possible I'd like to keep at least Leafeon and Marowak.

Thank you for your time and sorry for my noobishness, I hope I'm doing this right. ^^
