Thanks for the aself movesets!
Does anyone know a moveset for mesprit cause I am not sure of this one.... Leftovers 68 HP / 252 SAtk / 190 Spd Modest Nature -Psychic -Thunderbolt -Ice Beam -Calm Mind Thanks in advance :) |
Modest 190 Spd gets Azelf to 313, which is not a good number. Go with a pure 252/252 set so at least you're faster then Zapdos, Celebi, Salamence, Gengar, etc. A +Spd Nature with 220 Spd would still be best, however.
And Azelf is too fragile to use Calm Mind. Use Nasty Plot. About the hold item, Leftovers might not be a good idea. Life Orb and Expert Belt are better choices for this set. I would recommend Flamethrower and/or Grass Knot for better coverage, but Boltbeaming is not all that bad. Just a matter of personal preference. |

Oh. Your post had the name "Azelf" in there and it confused me. :B
Then, go with either 180 or 194 Speed. 194 Speed lets you outspeed every Tyranitar, while 180 puts you just above Breloom and friends. I recommend 180. Otherwise, that's fine. |
I'd like the best 6 combimation of these pokemon:
Blissey Metagross Heatran Tyranitar Heracross Ninjask Skarmory Forretress Magnezone Dugtrio Weavile Shedinja Garchomp Scizor Jirachi Bronzong I was hoping for a team that's good in both the standrad & uber battles...this is a list of the pokemon that's allowed in the standrad that's also used in the ubers... My team is probaly better off without the ones that needs weather support, so I have shorten down the list a little bit...I may have dropped a few pokemon...I think salamence may be also a standrad used in the ubers, for example...I figured a well-balanced team would look like this: Psyically defensive Psyical sweeper (here, I'm thinking bout Garchomp) Specially defensive (here, I'm gonna use Blissey) Special sweeper I don't know what the last 2 would be...I'd like to know...I'll help along if I can... |
Standard and Uber battling differ greatly, in terms of metagame and playing style. Ubers is essentially an unbalanced, overcentralised metagame in which prediction and choice of pokemon plays a vital role, and it is extremely difficult to attempt to wall many of the Uber pokemon simply because of their absurdly high stats and movepool.
That, and I can't imagine a player excelling at Ubers without even using the wide variety of Uber pokemon. |

What are some sets for Milotic and Gliscor?
|
Depends on what you want to use them for. You can always check the 'standard' sets on Smogon, too.
|
What are some good moves for timid Special Sweeper Deoxys (speed form)? Also, what item should I attach?
I'm thinking Calm Mind is a must, and Psychic, maybe. |
Deoxys-S @ Life Orb
Trait: Pressure Nature: Hasty EVs: 160 Atk / 252 SpA / 96 Spe - Psychic / Fire Punch - Thunderbolt - Icebeam - Superpower |
Quote:
[email protected] Orb Superpower Ice Beam Thunderbolt Shadow Ball/Psychic Don't really have space for Calm Mind since then you'll lose the ability to KO something. Superpower deals with the Queen of Special Walling Blissey while Ice Beam and Thunderbolt deals with Gyarados and the Dragons. Shadow Ball provides excellent coverage combined with Superpower although has low power and won't KO anything so Psychic hits Gengar and should KO it. EDIT: Clade, you beat me. =] |
Clade pretty much got it down. Do not, however, forget the option of Psycho Boost. Deoxys-S loves high-base power moves. Plus, it tends to switch a lot, anyhow.
|
Actually I find Psycho Boost to be a misrepresentation of Deoxys' strengths and somewhat veering from its job as a revenge-killer. The -2 SpA matters a lot when you are staying in to clean up the opposition, and the marginal boost by Psycho Boost may actually be detrimental to your job as a revenge-killer.

To tell the truth I'm just looking for interesting Pikachu physical set (to surprise opponents and to just to use Light Ball) and for Golduck (because I like him, special sweeper). That's basically for UU, but if they could work for OU, it would be good to hear. Also if someone has any other idea for any interesting set with this pokemon, I would be glad to hear it anyway. And maybe any idea for Drifblim ? But not Subs Baton Passing, please. Cheers and thx for help.

I use the following physial pikachu:
[email protected] Ball Adamant 252Att/252Spd/6HP Thunderpunch Brick Break/Focus Punch Return Agility |
Quote:
Choice Specs 6 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Mild Nature -Thunderbolt -Hidden Power [Ice] -Grass Knot/Surf -Focus Punch Surf may not be viable though as you need pkmon battle revolution to get it. defence is bad but at least riachu can take a hit! If you insist on Phicical pikachu try this set! Light Ball (Obviosly) 6 Atk / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Hasty Nature -Thunderpunch -Brick Break -Focus punch/ -Substitute (may as well try to take a hit) Pikachu doesnt really work as phisical sweeper though. |
I've seen a couple of Deoxys sets that recommend Hasty nature. Can Naive work as well or is there some specific threat that you need that little bit of Sp.Def to overcome?
|
Quote:
It shouldn't matter, but I suppose it's there to take the random special attacks, although naive should be fine, it usually goes down by a OHKO or 2HKO anyway. |
That's what I thought, I was just wondering.

Lyulf, what you've said is wrong, on both Raichu, Pikachu, AND Deoxys.
Choice Specs is viable, but Nasty Plot is better, being allowed to charge moves on the switch. However, Raichu is not better than Pikachu because he can take a hit, he is not MEANT to take a hit. Same with Pikachu. He is NOT meant to take a hit, so to even use that as a bad point against him is a bit wacky. Same with giving him Substitute. Do you get mad at a gun because it can't stab people? And that goes for Deoxys. Is Blissey bad because she has bad Def? No, right? To use her for walling Hera is stupid. Now, Deoxys is all about revenge killing, nont surviving a hit. That said, Raichu can take a sp.hit or two. |
