    Specs Sceptile is very good. Its ridiculously powerful in UU, even capable of 2hkoing the moster sp.sponge Chansey with Rocks up with Focus Blast.


    Sceptile@Choice Specs
    252 SP.ATT / 252 SPEED / 6 DEF
    Timid Nature
    - Leaf Storm
    - Energy Ball
    - Focus Blast
    - Dragon Pulse

    Not alot beats this. Leaf Storm for early game and Energy Ball for late, Focus Blast hits steels and Dragon Pulse for Altaria and its awesome neutral coverage.

  • Focus Blast? I've been doubting it, not so good Acc and 5 pp. I'll try it.

    How about Grass Knot? And I forgot, the nature's Mild.

    Timid is preferred so you're faster than almost everything in UU. Since you're using Choice Specs, you don't really need a Special Attack boosting nature. Plus it doesn't lower one of your defenses. ;D

    if you're worried about Focus Blast's Accuracy , you might need to use Hidden Power Fighting Over it , but you will miss the 2HKO on chansey =/.

    Naive / Rash
    4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Speed
    Earthquake / Roost / Outrage
    Fire Blast / Flamethrower
    Brick Break / Earthquake
    Draco Meteor

    Fixed. Earthquake hits Heatran, etc and gives you unresisted coverage with Draco Meteor and Fire Blast. Roost is pretty cool to heal SR, LO recoil, SS, etc damage away, but sometimes it's hard to find time to use it. Outrage can serve as a useful way of late game sweeping once Steel-types are eliminated. You can use Earthquake > Brick Break if you aren't planning to break stall with this. EVs allow you to at least speed tie with other MixMence, and you 2HKO max HP / Def Bold Blissey with SR up ~97% of the time. Mild is an awful Nature, it limits Salamence when switching into physical threats with Intimidate. Naive or Rash is much better, depending on what your team needs.

    That set is fine, though personally I run LO to switch between moves and not get locked into say EQ and have something setup on it.

    Adamant is also an option if you want a little more power.

    Alright thanks! Would Ancientpower be a good alternative to Stone Edge since it has better accuracy and the possible stat boost?

    Anceint power is a special attack, and Mamo's special attack stat is abysmal. Stick with Stone Edge.

    No because Stone Edge is a physical move, Ancientpower is Special, and the huge power loss isn't worth it. Stone Edge will always be the best, as it also has a high critical hit rate.

    Okay, sweet, thanks. I'm guessing that Adamant nature would be better since Mamoswine is already slow and a boost in speed wouldn't do much?
    You're outrun by Adamant Lucario (who really uses ES once an SD is set up), Timid Heatran (big threat in my opinion), Offensive Suicune (you have no reason to stay in on this anyway), and Adamant Gyarados (big threat). You only lose ~4% for damage when using Jolly instead of Adamant, so you won't loss any significant damage.

    In game doesn't really matter, so whatever you use will be totally fine. Superpower and ThunderPunch will be better if you're running a Dragon Dance set :D
