Milotic movesets
I'm trying to come up with a good Milotic strategy. Is there anyone who's been kicking a lot of ass with their own Milotic? Please provide nature, EV distrubution, and moveset. I'd prefer something that actually maximizes its potential as a wall, maybe something that uses Mirror Coat if it's preferable.
|
milotic always owns, whether it's mirror coat/recover milotic, or resttalk milotic. only real thing that takes it out is explosion or a couple swords dances/dragon dances.

Milotic can kick a lot of ass.
My Milotic: Modest Ev's: 252 hp, 252 defense, 4 special defense Item: Flame Orb Moveset: Hypnosis/Surf/Ice Beam/Recover This is a pretty effective Millie...it doesn't wall other waters very well (I've had some long standoffs against the likes of Vaporeon and co). Just make sure yours has a high special attack iv if you're running a similar set. Or, if you intend on a Mirror Coat Milotic: Bold Ev's: 252 hp, 252 defense, 4 special attack Item: Leftovers Moveset: Surf/Ice Beam/Mirror Coat/Recover Using a flame orb on a set like this designed to bait punishment would be a bad idea. You'll need to have all hp you can get, since special users will be hitting you hard. And feeling it themselves since Milotic will just send it bouncing back to them. Hope I helped, or at least confused you by not including the third (riskier) special sweeper set with Surf/Ice Beam/HP Ground/Recover. |
Use:
[email protected] suck w. items but I'd use lefties Bold Nature EVs: I can't help with this one ~Rest ~Sleep Talk ~Surf ~Ice Beam ~or~ ~Recover ~Mirror Coat ~Surf ~Ice Beam Those seem to be common. Please correct me if I'm wrong but I think that's pretty good. |

As a rule of thumb, Aqua Ring is a no-no. In the turn you took to activate Aqua Ring, you could have gotten off a Recover (which is a must for Milotic). It nullifies the Burn damage if you turn it into a double wall with Marvel Scale, but leaves you exposed after a good pounding. If you're that intent on getting a 1/12 regen from Aqua Ring each turn, have Vaporeon Baton Pass one over to you, along with an Acid Armor or two and, if you're in need of health, Wish.
By the way, Vappy is pretty awesome for supporting Milotic late game, when you've taken out nasty Electric sweepers like Electvire. Against special attacking grasses, Vaporeon can take a hit and, giving its high special attack, probably do a fair deal of damage with ice beam. Edit: whoops, misread that. Milotic needs a second attack move to deal with grasses and vicious dragons like Garchomp and Salamence. |
Hello Ichida, and remember, I WANT TO BE IN DS, anyway, here:
Milotic @ Leftovers Nature: Bold Trait: Marvel Scale EV's: 148 HP / 240 Def / 120 SpAtk -Surf -Ice Beam -Recover -Hypnosis Physical walls. Takes hits excellently. Ice Beam and Surf for dragons and surf gets stab. Recovery is an good move to heal, and Hypnosis to put to sleep, even if their is sleep clause, it still is good. |
Hmmm, alright, so scrap Aqua Ring.
Leftovers, Surf, Ice Beam, Mirror Coat, Recover. Sound good? Just trying to decide on the ideal nature and EV spread. I've used Hypnosis on Milotic in the past, and I've wasted too many turns on missed attempts. |
I like the moveset but someone more experienced probably has da best EV spread and all that stuff.

-Aqua Ring -Haze -Light Screen EDIT: The ev spread I gave you is what you should use btw |
70% still isn't reliable. The only risk that dangerous I take is Focus Blasting Alakazam, and even then I have Focus Sash on it to give it another try.

milotic is a killer. i highly reccomend you get your hands on a feebas w/hypnosis. (i have eggs, pm me)
hypnosis recover surf ice beam using this ev spread: 84 HP / 252 Def / 12 Spd / 106 SAtk / 56 SDef It'll pack quite a punch with surf. FURTHER elevate spc. defense, and give it some physical defense as well. The extra EV's in speed will sometimes help you outrun dragon dancers. Though i tend to BP milotic some speed since i'm just a dirty bastard like that. one ice beam sends garchomp, dragonite, salamence, flygon, altaria..etc. packing. dead. one shot. Hypnosis + recover is a lovely combo. Milotic has the defenses to risk hypnosises low accuracy. Electivires aren't much of a threat when they are 2 or 3 KO'd by stab'd surf, you can put them to sleep, and recover...Since they move first, they'll thunder punch you, which usually can 2-3HKO milotic. Use hypnosis, then recover, surf like there is no tomorrow. |

And I already have Feebas hatchlings with Hypnosis, and hatchlings with Mirror Coat. |
But what are it's nature/iv's and etc...?
|
Doesn't matter; I can just re-breed until I get a good one.
But I really want to use Mirror Coat, because I know that it can do some uber damage if I toss it out against a special sweeper, especially if someone tries to bolt it and it survives. That equals pwnage. |
Alright, so I'm going with Surf, Ice Beam, Mirror Coat, and Recover. What nature and EV spread would be ideal for this?

Nature: Bold Trait: Marvel Scale EV's: 148 HP / 240 Def / 120 SpAtk |
I don't think it was necessary to mention the item or trait. <.<;
|
I got surf, ice beam, mirror coat, recover. usually works well for me.
EDIT: you already decided, you decided mine aswell XD |
Quote:
Trait: Marvel Scale Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 252 SAtk -Recover -Surf -Ice Beam -Toxic This maximizes its potential, believe me. |

84 HP 252 Def 116 SA 56 SD |
