I need a Roserade Moveset!
Here's what I have:
Hasty (might put Physical attacks on it if I have too -_-) Energy Ball Shadow Ball Sludge Bomb ???? (Giga Drain...? Poison Jab....?) Sry, but Roserade has SO little options! |
You serious?
Roserade @ Choice Scarf / Choice Specs Nature: Modest / Timid Trait: Natural Cure EV Spread: 4 HP / 252 SPD / 252 SPATK Energy Ball Shadow Ball HP [ Fire / Ice / Rock / Ground ] / Sludge Bomb / Extrasensory / Weather Ball Leaf Storm Energy Ball is for late sweeping. Leaf Storm is for big hits at the beginning of battles. Shadow Ball hit's Azelf's thinking they'll come in and blast Roserade. Ideally, you'll want HP Fire to hit other Grass-Types and Steel-types. Sludge Bomb is if you want STAB but poor coverage. Extrasensory hit's Poison-types. Weather Ball is if you want to abuse Weather conditions. Effective Special Sweeper. |

No, I wasn't serious, I was desperate. Maybe I could run Rain Dance + Weather Ball on Roserade? |
If its less then 3 Pokemon, and not a RMT Thread, then it goes here.

And no weather ball + rain dance, epic failure will await you if you use it. I can see snorlax and bliss switching in already... |

If anything, I say run the Scarf variety. Roserade @ Choice Scarf Ability: Natural Cure EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Leaf Storm - Sludge Bomb - Hidden Power (Ice) / Hidden Power (Rock) - Shadow Ball Steel Types block this though, so HP Fire is also a viable option. |
Roserade (F) @ Life Orb
Trait: Natural Cure Timid / Modest Nature - Sludge Bomb - Sleep Powder/ Leech Seed - Energy Ball / Grass Knot / Leaf Storm - Hp [Fire / Ice]. Fools! You just did horribly aginest Smogon. |
Uck..........I can't get Egg Moves....not right now, at least. And my HP is TERRIBLE: Poison. Or Grass. Could be either.

Roserade Weather Ball Shadow Ball Sludge Bomb (bad coverage, but great power) Energy Ball |
Yeah, still a bad idea. what happens if you get OHKOed on a switch-in? Tough luck. that means NOt using weather ball for a more reliable move, like leaf storm.
|
Actually, Tyranitar and Roserade might work together well, you dont even need to waste a turn on the weather move.
|
Sunlight is a good weather condition for it so that it has access to Solarbeam too.
|
I kinda like the idea of Roserade and TTar on the same team. Weather Ball would become a Pseudo-Earth Power Pseudo-Power Gem. Would also laugh at Sunnybeamers.
Extrasensory FTW. Lol.... |

And as far as SunnyBeaming goes, Nothing is to be SEEN SunnyBeaming without the Ability Chlorophyll. |
Umm, yes... But Roserade is 2x resistant to Grass. Just take the Solarbeam hit, and lol back with a Fire-type Weather Ball, which would have STAB because of Clear Skies as the weather. Makes for a good counter-attack. But then again, who uses Sunnybeaming anymore... :/

Still, Sunnybeaming has become such an uncommon thing... It's almost automatic that when a Grass-type sets up Sunny Day, the next thing is Solarbeam. Anyone can predict that, and switch to a Fire-type to absorb either the Solarbeam or a HP Fire. Arcanine and Ninetails benefit from this most with Flash Fire. Besides, not all sunnybeamers have HP Fire.
EDIT: I guess sunnybeaming puts the grass type at a disadvantage from Fire-types because of the weather and that's why it's become kind of rare to see sunnybeamers around the competitive environment, what with Infernape at around nearly every corner. |
As a matter of fact, I DO have Tyranitar on this team. Might work well. Also, I'll have Claydol set up Weather conditions for Fire And Water, while Tyranitar can set up Rock.
