Wow... It's so hard to find feebas.. I know where it is and all, but I can't seem to find it. Any tips?

Milotic (F) @ Leftovers / Lum Berry
Trait: Marvel Scale
EVs: 210 HP / 150 Def / 150 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Surf
- Ice Beam
- Toxic / Safeguard
- Recover


I found Safeguard surprisingly useful. You may want to switch the nature so you get +SpAt if you are using Safeguard. Otherwise, Toxic should take its toll.

thanks, hellishades, but surprisingly enough, that is what it knows already:surf, icebeam, recover, and safeguard. i exchanged refresh for safeguard because safeguard is better than refresh in pokemon contests
(did i mention milotic has won the master beauty?). oh, and deathbyalice, i do have one general hint for catching feebas: change the popular phrase to secret train. like a year ago on pokemon.com it said that this popular phrase would reset one feebas spot somewhere within 50 steps of the second waterfall on route 119.

Couple of sets I know:

[email protected]/Petaya Berry
EVs: 252 Sp. Atk|190 Def|44 Sp. Def|24 HP
Nature: Modest (+ Sp. Atk|- Atk)

Surf
Ice Beam
Mirror Coat
Toxic

The special sweeper set. Standard, but very effective in countering Electric and Grass attacks. Usually Milotic can survive at least one Electric/Grass, hence the low Sp. Def EVs. Rest is self-explanitory.

Annoyer:

[email protected]
EVs: 252 HP|44 Sp. Atk|152 Def|52 Sp. Def
Nature: Calm (+ Sp. Def|- Atk)

Surf
Toxic
Attract
Confuse Ray

Calm for the low Sp. Def EVs. Surf for an attacking move and Sp. Atk to boost it up a bit. Rest is again, self-explanitory.

I don't see the need to put much in Defence EV for Milotic, since as soon they suffer a status effect Defence shoots up anyway, and it's hard to try and tank both when everything else suffers because of it.

[email protected]
EV: 252 HP, 129 Sp Att, 129 Sp Def
Nature: + Sp Def, - Att
Surf
Ice Beam/Attract/Confuse Ray
Toxic/Recover/Confuse Ray/Attract
Mirror Coat/Toxic/Confuse Ray/Attract

If you're willing to lower Sp Def to make Mirror Coat work, Milotic can really dish out some damage. Consider 252 HP, 252 Sp Att, 6 Def EV (or more Def EV if you want to abuse Marvel Scale) and - Sp Def/+ Sp Att nature for Mirror Coat though.

As for Safeguard, it defeats Milotic's Marvel Scale, so I wouldn't consider it for a team with Milotic in.

Safeguard can work relatively well. It's mostly for other team members, not Milotic. Marvel Scale only works well when you predict the opponent is going to use Thunderwave, anyway. Nasty burns/poison negate your Leftovers.

Refresh isn't all that bad. It helps to get rid of Toxic, which Milotic is very weak to. Often, I find Toxic more useful on Milotic, since it encourages the opponent to switch so that they take a minimum of damage from the poison status. Either that, or it fishes out those Miltank and Blissey hanging around waiting to Heal Bell / Aroma Therapy.

If you so want to use a disbaling move, I'd stay far away from Attract. Confuse Ray is much better; I've also had a lot of bad luck with it, so I'm somewhat biased.. The only benefit to Attract is that it can't be washed away by Lum Berry.

You'd have to max out the Speed EVs and perhaps use a bonus nature for Salac to work well.

You would never want to have a nature that decreases SpDf on Milotic. Never. It's like using Tackle in a competetive move-set. You just don't do it.

thanks for all the advice. i think I'll stick with surf, ice beam, recover, and toxic. however, i have a second one, soon to be third and fourth, so I'll combine mirror coat, refresh, and confuse ray with those. by the way i liked the annoyer milotic, i'll try that as well.
