Ive never seen anyone else use it, but I LOVE marowak in trickstorm teams. I use this set:
Marowat@Thick Club
252Att/156Def/100HP
Brave
Focus Punch
Swords Dance
Stone Edge
EQ/Bonemerang

Its almost like trickstorm was made for it. It allows it to sweep without jask support, its immune to sandstorm, and its spe def gets a bost, making it bulky. Open with focus punch if you supsect a switch, cuz not much can stand that. Bonemerang is in there cuz it can break through subs, but is inaccurate. Its personall preference really.

Marowak is a ground type, only rock types get the sp def boost in the sand.
 
Does anyone know a good moveset for Weavile, sorry i'm a noob.

Um, yeah...

Rock, Ground, and Steel. It even says that on the move in the game when you look at it.

That doesn't even make much sense, considering Sandstorm is a Ground-type move.



Hold on for the Weavile set.
 
I'd suggest

Weavile @ Life Orb or Expert Belt
Jolly
252 Atk/ 252 Spd/ 4 Hp
Night Slash
Ice Punch/Fake Out
Brick Break
Swords Dance/ Ice Shard

Is there another option??
 
Weavile@??? (I cant remember item :P)
Jolly
252Att/252Spd/6HP
Brick Break
Night Slash/Pursuit
Ariel Ace
Swords Dance/Pursuit

Thats what ive used in the past. Pursuit is good for hitting pokes that may switch out, but night slash is more reliable. Swords Dance is an option, using it on the switch can give you some serious sweeping power.
 
Choice Band revenge killer is better IMO, by using weavile on shoddy and wifi, it never really gets a chance to swords dance, and when it does stuff like forry comes in.


Aerial Ace is sucky aswell, what pokemon are you gonna need it for, heracross and Breloom ? Breloom gets wasted by Ice SHard and you have no buisiness staying in on Hera due to the possibility of it being scarfed, heck its that sucky it doesnt even guarantee a ohko on Infernape.

Weavile@Choice Band
252 ATT / 216 SPEED / 40 HP
Jolly Nature
- Ice Shard
- Pursuit
- Night Slash
- Brick Break

252 on speed is overkill, give it 216 to outspeed Dugtrio, Sceptile and Alakazam.

give it 40 HP evs, this allows it to, at worst switch in on an Unboosted Azelfs flamethrower and live.

Ice Shard beats Scarfchomp, and DDers, trust me, youll need it.

Pursuit OHKOs Gengar, Alakazam and Azelf weather they switch or not, the latter must run 32 hp evs or more and not switch to survive a pursuit, its also great for stuff you know wont like taking a Night slash and will switch, for example Starmie, Creselia etc.

Night Slash is there for sturdy stuff that may not switch, Cressy, Dusknoir,Uxie Celebi, <insert sturdy pokemon here>

Brick Break stops you getting walled by heatran, Magnezone and other steels.

*cough* Sandstorm is a Rock-type move FYI.

Hah! Look at me!

Regardless, it effect Rock, Ground, and for some reason, Steel, with it's benifits.
 
Really! Meh, live & learn.

Thanks, this really helped me. I used this on Shoddy and i sweeped this guy's team with it. OWNAGE!
 
Anyone have a UU Hitmonchan moveset? I'm considering using him on my UU BP team, so he'll likely be getting an Agility and defense boosts (no attack boosts). Here's my current idea:

Hitmonchan @ ??? (need help!)
Iron Fist
(252 Atk/252 Spd/6 HP)
Thunderpunch
Ice Punch
Drain Punch/Focus Punch/Sky Uppercut
Earthquake

Physical BoltBeam seems a good way to go. I'm leaning towards Drain Punch despite it's low power because I should get a boost from Iron Fist and I'd like some recovery considering the defense + spec. def. boosts I should be getting. EQ covers nicely, hitting Fires, Poisons, and Electrics.
 
Yes, something like:

Hitmonchan@Life Orb
Adamant
252 Atk, ??? Spd, ? **
Iron Fist

Fire Punch
Ice Punch
Mach Punch/Close Combat
Ice Punch

Problem is, CC lowers your Defense, and from what I understand, you are baton passing to it. You are going to want to be able to pull it off, or this set won't be as effective.

Can I please get a moveset for a rapid spinning Forretress and an Impish Gliscor?
 
Gliscor @ Leftovers
Trait: Sand Veil
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Aerial Ace / Ice Fang
- Roost
- Knock Off / Stealth Rock
 
I really suck at making movesets, especially for pokemon like Blaziken, who I am trying to make a moveset for. The problem is that he has a mainly offensive moveset. Here are a few movesets that I have thought about.

Moveset 1: (Blaziken-Adamant Nature-255 Atk, 255 Spd) or (255 Atk, 100 Def, 155 Spd)
1. Brave Bird
2. Flare Blitz
3. Stone Edge
4. Sky Uppercut

This is a risky moveset due to all the recoil damage that Blaziken will take. The stragety with Blaziken is to make him fast and powerful enough to take out at least one or two of his opponents. Is there any other moveset I can use for a good Blaziken that takes advantage of his power, and maybe his speed? Also which set of EVs should I give Blaziken? Which item should I use? I don't want to use the life orb, due to the recoil he would take. I was thinking more about the power belt or whatever its called (powers up super-effective moves.)

***Feel free to critique and say whatever on this. And if you know any Blaziken strageties, please say.

T-Punch works on first last slot as does focus punch.

Blaziken@Choice Scarf
Adamant Nature
252 ATT / 252 SPEED / 6 HP
~ Sky Uppercut
~ Flare Blitz
~ Stone Edge
~ ThunderPunch / Focus Punch / Brave Bird

You can go Choice Band same moveset, but go Jolly Nature.


Also a bit of advice on the evs, 252 does the same as 255.
