Here's what mine runs.

[email protected] Scarf
Jolly/Adamant (Jolly will ensure quicker speed vs. Gengar)
252atk/252spd/6HP

Crunch
Thunder Fang/Spark (Spark for higher paralyze chance)
Ice Fang
Fire Fang

Basically hits and gets out, but he hits hard! Great for getting rid of some physical walls in some cases, but it depends on which.

Although I have been playing Pokemon since Pokemon Blue I am new to competative battling, and I just don't know even where to begin making a team. I would be eternally grateful if one of you guys could help me out. I am looking for

A Physical Sweeper
Special Sweeper
Physical Wall
Special Wall
Spiker
Annoyer

If you could just help me identify a good team I could find out the move sets and the EV and IV stats myself. I just need a place to start, and with so many pokemon and so many movesets and combo's available I don't even know where to start.

Thanks guys

Thats horrible. 3 Electric moves is just plain horrible because it doesn't provide extra coverage. ABYAY's set works the best.

Anyone able to give me sets for a Hitmontop, Typhlosion, Alakazam and Regigigas for a double battle team? :)

I was thinking of using Alakazam to skill swap Regigigas' Slow Start off of him? Or is that no good..?

Ah Relicanth, there are two good set for it IMO.

Choice Band

[email protected] Band
Adamant Nature
evs: 12 HP / 252 Atk / 244 Speed
Trait : Rock head
- Head Smash
- Waterfall
- Double Edge
- Earthquake


Rock Polish


[email protected]/Life Orb
ability: Rock Head
nature: Adamant
evs: 6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Speed
- Rock Polish
- Head Smash
- Waterfall
- Earthquake

Both these sets are beasts. Ive used both and they are fantastic.

No recoil from head smash and double edge = win !!

Waterfall for STAB

Earthquake for general coverage against electric switch ins etc.

Choice band gives it around 459 attack and trust me anything coming from that HURTS.

The Rock Polish set gets around 419 speed after a single Rock Polish, you can put life Orb on this set if you want versatility that the choice band doesnt give you, still this has alot of power behind it.

This is great on a sandstorm team aswell.

Thanks a bunch Azelf; I really hadn't thought of Rock Polish idea though. That's just... wow. Head Smash + Rock Head ftw! ^^ I think the Life Orb set with Rock Polish, EQ, Waterfall, and Head Smash would work excellently.

Again, my thanks to ya.

Can anybody help me with this Jumpluff moveset please?

Jumpluff @ Wide Lens
Chlorophyll
-U-turn
- Sunny Day
- Poisonpowder
- Leech Seed

Use Sunny Day to boost your speed, Poisonpowder & Leech Seed to annoy then use U-turn to switch out

I can understand the reasoning on this setup for Jumpluff, but... I don't think Poisonpowder is needed. Sleep Powder = much better for the occasion. Holding a Big Root works fine too to keep HP draining high with Giga Drain as well, but... Wide Lens is useful for Sleep Powder effectiveness. Also, Jumpluff has a lot of speed already. Whether I'd use Sunny Day or not is debatable.

You need the TM Giga Drain instead to get the maximum efficiency.

Alright, I'm asking for assistance again... this is a tough nip to get past too for me. I'm not a big fan of being put to sleep... at all.

I need a good pokemon to swap to in anticipation to Hypnosis/Sleep Powder/Spore. Anyone have a good pokemon and moveset?

Because not all pokemon can have access to that. Also, Snore is useless against Ghosts. I do have a Sleep Talker, but it's just to take advantage of the Resting. I'm talking about a pokemon that I can swap in to stop a Hypnosis. Even a Magic Coater will work.

I don't like Ninjask.. too OU.
I thought Tyhplosions Eruption worked well for Double Battles?

A sleep talker is your best bet :/ You can also use a cleric, a poke with Insomnia(Noctowl, thats it :/) or a natural cure poke (Starmie,Celebi,Blissey..)

Jumpluff @ Big Root
- Giga Drain
- Leech Seed
- U-turn / Silver Wind
- Synthesis / Rest

Is that any good?

Jumpluff as a Subseeder works best. IMO. Can't really do anything else..

Jumpluff (F) @ Leftovers ** The Sceptile Jr.
Trait: Chlorophyll
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Sunny Day
- Hp [Fire] / Sleep Powder
- Leech Seed
- Substitute. I'd run Sleep Powder for the 2nd slot to take adventage of Chlorophyll's boost. Makes it possible to Sweep. But then again, you're going to need a attack, and Hp [Fire] gains boost from the sun, I think...

But Jumpluff doesn't need Sunny Day, it's already fast enough
