    I need help with a typhlosion. So far I have;

    Typhlosion
    (Need help with ev's)
    Trait:mild
    @expert belt
    focus blast
    flame thrower
    hp grass
    shadow claw.

    I could go with the eruption set but I want a change.

    Ps: I also need a lopunny set and ev's for my sister.
     
    Lopunny@Choice Band
    Adament Nature
    EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 6 HP
    -Fire Punch
    -Thunder Punch
    -Ice Punch
    -Sky Uppercut/Switcheroo

    With Klutz, Choice Band isn't really useful, so use Switcheroo to put Choice Band on pokemon that can't use it well (Blissey, Alakazam etc) then laugh at them... Elemental Punches is about as good as the sweeping goes for this little rabbit

    If running with Cute Charm, then Choice Band works it's magic on Lopunny, but Switcheroo is still an option.

    Typhlosion@Choice Specs/Scarf
    Timid/Modest Nature
    EVs: 252 Sp Atk, 252 Spd, 6 HP
    -Flamethrower
    -Focus Blast
    -HP Grass (covers all his weaknesses, which is nice)
    -Overheat

    What is it with me and choice sets, anyway... This set probably has some flaws, but then everything does and will get countered... Overheat causes huge damage when combined with Choice Specs, and your probably gonna switch out anyway after using it... Flamethrower is for when you either don't wanna switch straight away, or run out of PP. Other moves are for coverage
     
    Well, I didn't think running to fire moves was good because I thought that being 2 fire moves and being special were not good.
     
    Oh well not really many other options, Thunderpunch is Physical now, and the rest of the moves are just plain suck, so I made him a mini Specsmence

    could go for a Sunnybeaming set, but that's about it

    If you don't know what I meant by Sunnybeamer

    Typhlosion@Heat Rock
    same as above for Nature and EVs
    -Sunny Day
    -SolarBeam
    -Flamethrower
    -Focus Blast
     
    I know what a sunny beamer is but don't worry I'm not that new.

    Edit:Is there a different set for lopuny?

    Typhlosion can have Eruption, it's 150 Power at full health
     
    He asked for an alternative to Eruption, that is what I delievered... but yeah Eruption is awesome on Typhlosion with CScarf behind him (making sure he gets that first full power hit, providing Spikes/Stealth Rock/Sandstorm/Hail are absent)
     
    Typhlosion@Choice Scarf
    Modest Nature
    EVs: 252 Sp Atk, 252 Spd, 6 HP
    -Eurption
    -Focus Blast
    -HP Grass
    -Flamethrower

    It's good to have Flamethrower in case Typholsion falls into some Rocks. Or Spikes in that matter also. Choice Scarf Typholsion does make a great mid-game pokemon combating most of a team.
