Use Refresh until you get paralysed, and then you're laughing. Shift more of those Defence EV into Sp Def, and wait until you can intercept incoming Thunder Wave attacks. 252 HP/58 Def/200 Sp Def is my suggestion.

C-ray/Toxic
Rest
Surf
Ice Beam

Since toxic can kill calmcune, like many people said. With the c-ray, and the toxic, prompting switches, rest is ok. You can also switch out then heal bell it. Surf for stab, ice beam for dragons.

Any CalmCune worth it's salt will also have Rest. Which usually means Water Absorbers mess it over (I enjoy throwing Lapras in the way of Suicune).

I think you should go with refresh and besides that the set looks decent find room for toxic. Sponges thrive on toxic.

I know that sponges are good with Toxic, but I have other attacks like Surf and Ice Beam to do damage. I know it was okay but I wanted to make it better so I used Toothy's advice on the the EVs. :D

consider getting rid of recover or rest and using mirror coat. milotic has the sp def to use it effectively. this is an egg move for milotic.

its an wall/tank it needs recover....also to use mirror coat effectively you must lower your special defense otherwise the returned damage is still low.

You need high HP, not Special Defence, to use Mirror Coat effectively. Meh, I'm just echoing what Demonion said here. The trick is to take more damage so more gets returned.

I mostly use my Milotic in pokemon contests. I suggest giving it a blue scarf and you will never lose a contest.

It's just a phrase I use every so often. It means you got nothing to worry about.

If used and made correctly Milotic can be used in a competitive battling sitution too, and that's what I talking about using it for.

Without C-Ray/Toxic, stuff like Gyarados will own you with ease =\.

Gyarados used Taunt!
Lapras can't use Confuse Ray after the Taunt!

Gyarados messes annoyer Lapras over anyway. Best thing to do is just attack with Thunderbolt.

Gyrados could beat Lapras but aren't we getting a little off topic.
