Which would be the better SAtk booster?

Smeargle @ Salac Berry
????
~Spore
~Baton Pass
~Tail Glow
~Cosmic Power

[email protected] Salac Berry
+Speed,-Atk EVs evenly split HP/Def/Speed
~Light Screen
~Baton Pass
~Tail Glow
~Silver Wind

Volbeat has better base stats, but Smeargle has Spore....

use these sets if you plan on passing anything:

[email protected] Salac
~Endure
~Spore
~Tail Glow
~Baton Pass

[email protected] Lefties
~Confuse Ray/Ice Punch
~Thunder Wave
~Tail Glow
~Baton Pass

Volbeat would pass more SpAtk but, suceed less often and Smeargle would pass +2 SpAtk and +1 Speed nearly everytime but, would rarely be able to do better.

IMO this is the best SpAtK passer:

[email protected] Lefties
~Baton Pass
~Calm Mind
~Recover
~Psychic/HP: Grass

You get a nearly guaranteed 3-4 Calm Minds passed every single time

Eh, and here I thought I'd found something Smeargle might actually be best at. So CM >> Tail Glow?

In terms of non-uber and survival, wouldn't Mr. Mime technically be better than the two, or is my judgment really off?

Most likely Celebi is the best SA baton passer. It's faster than Smeargle, and has a wayyyy better chance of surviving. Not to mention that Celebi can use the calm minds for it self, can pass physically too, use recover, and has a max of 404 hp. :cool:

Well he wants to know between Smeargle and Volbeat. Probably because he doesnt have a Celebi.
