    Milotic's looks and stats make it an attractive pokemon to use. It's obvious water type in battles with your friends is one of its few downsides. Not only are they ready to whip your Kyogre, but they'll beat your Milotic while they're at it. But maybe a super effective hit is'nt your worst enemy after all.
    For all of you Wobby fans, now you can have one that looks better, and has better stats. Yes, a Milotic with the useful Mirror Coat move.

    Moves:

    Ice Beam (TM 13)
    Mirror Coat (I'll explain this)
    Surf (HM)
    Safeguard ( LVL 50) or Dragon Breath (Egg Move)

    Now, how to get the Mirror Coat move. First make sure to have a Feebas (Female) and a Corsola (Male), both in Water 1 group. Level Corsola up to LVL 39 to make him learn Mirror Coat. Then breed the two. Hatch the egg, and you will get a Feebas with a Mirror Coat move. Then you have to go through all that trouble leveling it up.

    Now, a super effective hit may not be so bad if you survive, because your Mirror Coat is going to do a ton of damage. Use Safegaurd to ruin your opponents chances of giving you a disadvantage.

    Now you have a Wobby that can do some serious damage attacking, as well as countering, and it looks a whole lot better. Now don't you feel happy?

    Dragon Breath. Many underestimate this move. It's really good, seriously! With a 30% chance of Paralysys, it's bound to work.

    Now it may not be a bad thing that its the obvious water type, because your opponents in for a nasty surprise.

    I love Milotic. Enjoy!

    actually... a vital move is missing.

    RECOVER!

    Who doesn't like a little free hp afterward? All Pokemon who is capable of learning any hp restoration move such as morning sun, moonlight, wish, synthesis or recover (slack off is an exception to this rule) should be kept for extra staying power. They're highly effective and time efficient. Rest is also a good choice. Full restoration and removes status, however 2 turns of not doing anything is the cost.

    So usually safeguard/dragonbreath aren't used and instead recover will be kept there. I'll much rather get recover than safeguard. You need to be hit by a status to activate the special pokemon ability too, so let's not waste the ability. Dragonbreath is used for the paralysis status, but recover > paralysis as a simple rest will screw dragonbreath over in a way.

    Alternate common set for Milotic:
    -recover
    -calm mind
    -surf
    -ice beam
     
    Milotic can learn Rest? O_o If so, would you prefer Rest/Chesto Berry or Recover?

    Anyway, it does look like recover would go good with Milotic, considering its high Special Defense.
     
    heh... nothing a TM rest cannot fix...
    it also has recover so you can be quite flexible about which recovery move to take.
     
    EV distro, Stinger?

    Miltotic will have to have some nice EV distro to survive things

    Stick no EVs into defense: 194. Average Sweeper's attack: 320+?
    Stick some EVs into Defense: 226
    Stick Max EVs into defense: 257

    Sticking Max EVs into defense to raise it to an "acceptable" level means sacrificing on other aspects. If you make it defensive, all the attack moves would do closer to little damage than to huge huge damage, and if you stick it offensively, Mirror coat won't work because of all the elemental sweepers using Calm mind first to ensure an OHKO (They aren't stupid, after all).
     
    i don't really know about all this stats and numbers so my strategy ( this might by good for milotic) ispure powerand i almost never lose a battle ( 99% of the time i win)
     
    Are you fighting in game opponents or RSbot?In-game battles are extremely easy, you can win with almost any pokemon.owever, when you go to the more advance battle programs, sheer force will not win.
