starter movesets? manaphy?
 
Just wondering if anybody knows some good movesets for the starters in D/P.

These are the ones I have on mine

[email protected]
Hasty(+speed -def)
trait:Blaze
200att/58sp.att/252speed
-nasty plot
-flamethrower
-grass knot
-close combat

mix sweeper. not a lot of ev's in sp.att since it's got nasty plot. I suppose naive nature would be better than hasty but I restarted the games I think over 20 times before I got hasty and I didn't want to restart another 20 times to get naive... a lot of ev's in att to ensure KO when it uses close combat.

Modest(+sp.att -att)
trait:Torrent
252hp/110def/100satt/48s.def
-flash cannon/stealth rock/yawn
-surf
-ice beam
-grass knot

special sweeper. lots of ev's in hp and some in def so it can take hits since it's slower than a lot of pokemon. i would put more in sp.def but I don't see how it would help him much.

Adamant(+att -sp.att)
trait:Overgrow
252hp/148att/110def
-leech seed
-sword dance/curse/crunch
-earthquake
-wood hammer

pretty good physical sweeper. again, i don't see how sp.def would help this guy at all. this guy is a magnet to ice beamers.

By the way, Manaphy isn't an uber is it? Pokemon Ranger is one of my favorite games and Manaphy is a pretty good pokemon, but I wouldn't use it if it was considered an uber.

Bold(+def -att)
trait:Hydration
252hp/148def/110sp.def
-acid armor
-calm mind
-surf
-ice beam/rain dance

Bulky water but not bulky. can switch into physical attacks, and after calm mind becomes a special wall also. rain dance can cure it of status problems and give surf an extra boost.

Thoughts? Suggestions? I'm using Infernape, Torterra, and Manaphy as my in game team but I would like to have them ready for competitive battling also. It's kind of a bizarre combination but it's fun.
