Request an Individual Move Set Thread

[ozmer]

I know its a bit unstable but I am going with it anyway becuase I already have a steady competative team and for this team i am trying to make the best possible arrangement of my six favorite pokemon. Its not for a specific tier, just for general online play over wifi or PBR.

 

[Walrein]

UU Pokemon aren't banned in OU but OUs are banned in UU, so it'll have to be OU due to Alakazam.
Persian should lead with:
Persian@Focus Sash
Techincian trait, Jolly nature
6HP/252Atk/252Spe
~Taunt
~Fake Out
~Hypnosis
~Bite/Aerial Ace
Other than that, sweep with the rest apart of Meganium, who should tank/support.

Yep, pretty much, comments in bold. Other moves sucked >.<

Thunder on kyogre teams and overheat with groudon support.

Crobat/Aerodactyl are your generic "Suicide" leads for the job. Azelf can also work, but more (awesome) leads include Moltres, Jumpluff, and even Porygon2 (Magic Coat).

The best Sunny Day starter is Tyranitar btw.

 

[The Hero Without a Name]

Tyranitar... what makes him so great for the job?

..........

Just use a fast lead with decent defenses (Crobat), and you're golden.

But again, ....

 

[The Hero Without a Name]

Eh.... alright.

So effing hard to make a SD team x.x

 

[skyt]

what is better? hp grass with base of 70 or grass knot?

 

[Anti]

what is better? hp grass with base of 70 or grass knot?

Grass Knot's base power depends on the opponent's weight. You can find more information on that here. Grass Knot is almost always better though.

 

[The Hero Without a Name]

In OU, Grass Knot hits with 80-120 BP on most crucial Pokemon like Swampert, Suicune, Hippowdon, and Tyranitar. HP Grass only hits Vaporeon, the rare UU bulky waters and Lanturn harder.

 

[skyt]

what is a better baton pass?
wish
acid armor
sub
aqua ring?

 

[The Hero Without a Name]

You don't "Baton Pass" Wish. Here's how it goes:
Opponent switched in Tangrowth!
Vaporeon used Wish!
Player switched in Salamence!
Pointed Stones dug into Salamence! Salamence lost 25% of its health.
Foe Tangrowth used Power Whip! It's not very effective...
The wish came true! Salamence restored 50% of its health.

Though, Vaporeon passes gigantic subs if that's what you're looking for.

 

[Walrein]

SpecsJynx: Blizzard/Psychic/Focus Blast and? Grass Knot, Energy Ball or Shadow Ball?

 

[El Gofre]

SpecsJynx: Blizzard/Psychic/Focus Blast and? Grass Knot, Energy Ball or Shadow Ball?

Shadow Ball offers the nicest coverage, since ghost/fight hit everything in the game for at least neutral. Grass knot will only really help against heavy waters like quagsire (Assuming this is UU), who don't like STAB'd blizzards anyway. I'd go with shadow ball for general coverage.

 

[To Write Love On Her Arms]

For my EVD Timid Latias I need help on my last two moves in my moveset:

Calm Mind
Dragon Pulse
Recover/Refresh
Grass Knot/Thunder/Surf

anyone care to help?

 

[SkyPioneer]

It'd help if you'd give us EVs, an for what you wish to use it for.
But that set seems okay, but who am I to say?
Go ahead and rip me apart, guys.
