Is this a good moveset for my Azelf?

Azelf @Life Orb
EVs: 36 Atk / 220 Spd / 252 SAtk
Naive Nature
-Psychic
-Flamethrower
-Nasty Plot
-Explosion

I wanted to use Explosion in a set without having to use Chioce Specs. So combined a Nasty Plot set with a Choice Specs set to get this more flexable Nasty Plot, Explosion set.

Meh. You might as well take advantage of azelfs killer SAtk and nasty plot, I'd just take out explosion.

Explosion could be for Blissey, Azelf's attack is scary so it'll probably OHKO.

I guess Energy Ball could replace Explosion. But I had it for Blissey so I wouldn't have to switch out to a physical sweeper, and risk a thunder wave...

I think i'll use the set.

Maybe so...I just don't like the idea of sacrificing a pokemon to take out another. Surely there is a better option? Blissey is evil, but even it can't stand up to azelf after3 nasty plots, though that is unlikely.

I'd keep explosion, 500 attack power ko's basically anything.

Skarmory...really though, if people expect it, they'll switch into skarm or their steel and absorb it like candy.

Azelf has no way of healing anyway... So if it's low on HP, just Blow up for damage instead of watching a perfectly good Azelf die...

Good point. I prefer scouting for blissey, eliminating it (which is easier said than done usually) and use azelf as a late-game sweeper. That works...if you want to use explosion, fine, it works. I just prefer other things is all.

you would hope...then again, you can always predict the prediction, though if you overpredict, you will be sorry.

The use is Explosion is risky, true. But with good prediction it can pay off big...

And anyways, i'm not here to argue about if you like to use explosion, I needed to see if it was OK to use it on Azelf. It really depends on the trainer.

Yeah...but it takes care of blissey, so it works.

It also takes care of fragile sweepers, and if they are crazy enough to swtich them in, Ownage! Cep' Bulky Starmie set.

That's what the special moves are for...you should only use explosion when necessary.

In other words, low on HP.

Yeah. Or to destroy blissey, though I'm not fond of the idea, but w/e.

With HP Fighting it will pwn Blissey after some Nasty plot's, also it is actually standard due to Tyranitar walling Psychic and Flamethrower.
