    It was my first EVE Trained guy

    Sceptile
    Level 100

    Timid Nature
    Proud of it Power

    252 EV's /Attack
    252 EV's / Speed
    6 EV's / Health Points

    281 Health Points
    240 Attack
    142 Defense
    240 Special Attack
    197 SP. Def
    354 Speed

    Leaf Blade
    Leaf Storm
    Brick Break

    I am still trying to find a better move set for it, but so far I am really happy, its quick and powerful... But I wanna see what you guys think..
     
    You need a move to counter a flying type. Rock Slide would be my first choice. Mabe also consider Swords Dance to up attack. I don't like the idea of two grass type moves.
     
    You should really breed for a new one with Leech Seed. However, if you're simply too lazy for that or just don't want to, use this set:

    Sceptile @ Choice Specs
    Timid Nature
    Ability: Overgrow
    EVs: 252 Speed, 252 Sp.Attack, 4 HP

    - Energy Ball/Hidden Power [ICE/FIRE]
    - Dragon Pulse
    - Focus Blast
    - Leaf Storm/Hidden Power [ICE/FIRE]

    That's just about the only somewhat functional set for an egg moveless Sceptile.

    If you're willing to breed for a Sceptile with Leech Seed go with:

    Sceptile @ Leftovers
    Timid Nature
    Ability: Overgrow
    EVs: 252 Speed, 252 Sp.Attack, 4 HP

    - Energy Ball
    - Dragon Pulse
    - Substitute
    - Leech Seed

    You need a move to counter a flying type. Rock Slide would be my first choice. Mabe also consider Swords Dance to up attack. I don't like the idea of two grass type moves.

    Because using physical attacks on a Timid Natured Sceptile (and Sceptile in general, unless you use them for the surprise factor) is obviously a good idea.
     
    I was thinking of putting X-Scissors on my Sceptile and taking out brick break.. I will have another pokemon with fighting on it..

    Because, well bug is effective againts psychic and I dont plan on using any ghosts or any dark pokemon so I figured I should take out brick break. Plus my sceptile is very fast, and faster then most psychic pokemon.

    any opinions?
     
    My attack based Sceptile had

    Leaf Blade
    Night Slash
    Airial Ace
    Drain Punch

    Its a tank and Drain Punch is the best I could do to kope with the loss of Giga Drain. Rock Slide could help, but I work it with supporting pokemon that know Earthquake, Thunder Punch etc.
     
    If you're going to use a physical Sceptile at least give it Swords Dance.

    Sceptile @ Focus Sash/Leftovers/Life Orb
    Ability: Overgrow
    Adamant/Jolly Nature
    EVs: 252 Attack, 252 Speed

    - Leaf Blade
    - Substitute/Leech Seed/Aerial Ace/Brick Break/X-Scissor
    - Brick Break/Aerial Ace/X-Scissor
    - Swords Dance

    But special attacking Sceptile > physical attacking Sceptile any day.
