i actually use luxray with NO support or speed, and it makes for an awesome starter.
Luxray @ Shuca Berry
Rash/Quiet Nature
212 SP ATK/240 HP/56 ATK
Ability: Intimidate
-Thunderbolt
-Ice Fang
-HP Grass
-Thunderwave
it has decent HP and defenses, so, the idea: with Shuca Berry, it has no weaknesses and has NO reasons to switch out. from there, you take out ground types and dragons that they bring in expecting you to switch out, and just paralyze anything that can't handle being paralyzed. it will at least get away with one KO and one hurtful paralyze.
