Flareon Moveset

[Lord Mike]

This is what I was thinking about as a moveset for Flareon. I have a feeling that its bad so give me advice if you can. :)

Flareon (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Flash Fire
EVs: 176 HP / 116 Atk / 176 Def / 4 SAtk / 36 SDef
Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd)
- Curse
- Quick Attack
- Shadow Ball
- Fire Blast

I usually use Curse for raising its already high Attack and for raising that pathetic 60 base Defense. I think Quick Attack works well with Curse because even with its Speed being so low aftering using Curse it will still beat speedy attackers and hit hard. Shadow Ball for Ghost-type Pokemon. Fire Blast takes down physical walls.

Seems usable for underused metagame.

That's an option too, but Flareon's low defense and crappy typing ensure that you will get OHKOed by any earthquake, maybe two hits after you curse up two or three times. And anything can wall you, like Golem or even Onix (to show a pathetic example, I know he will never show up anywhere :P). And that's in UU, not talking about Rhydon, TTar, Steelix and the likes (even with FB he can't OHKO Steelix, who will just Earthquake back). If you really want to use that set, use either Return instead of Quick Attack or even better, HP Fighting.

This is sadly a better option, IMO Flail, Endure/Substitute, Shadow Ball, Overheat.
But Flareon is overall the worst Eevolution ever.
