    What a long title XD But I really am fussing about it, I've made a few threads and such about it now ^^;

    It ish...

    An untouched Jirachi [well I raised it a level and took its Ganlon Berry XD], Level 6, Hasty nature~ ^^ Any advice on a good moveset for it?
     
    dp u had another thread on this...
    go for the hax jirachi!!

    Jirachi @ Leftovers
    Trait: Serene Grace
    EVs: 252 Def / 6 Spd / 252 SAtk
    Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
    - Thunder
    - Psychic
    - Fire Punch
    - Ice Punch

    actually i dont know lol...never used jirachi before..
     
    Yeah Dark Pika, stop making cloned threads or youll just have them all locked by a mod.
    Hax Jirachi is good if you want another opinion though.
     
    Yeah, lay the SMACK down on Kylie Jaws.

    Lay it DOWN.

    As I said in the last one I saw, CALM MIND/PSYCHIC/THUNDERBOLT/WISH is where it's at.

    It owns, well, at least for me it does, can stall with the best of em.
     
    Like I said in the other topic I like thunder over thunderbolt for paralyzation but, its ur choice
     
    I like Bolt, it can still paralyze, has higher accuracy, and higher PP.
     
    But, I can't let go of that 60% (I think) chance of paralyzation
     
    Lol.

    Yeah, it is 60%, how much is Thunderbolt's?
     
    1/5 chance isn't to bad.

    I still prefer Bolt > Thunder.

    Never know when Thunder will MISS.
     
    Since Raikou is my favorite special sweeper, I'll recommend a Raikou-like set. The advantage of using Jirachi in this case is to continue sweeping even if Blissey or Snorlax appears.

    Jirachi@Leftovers
    -Calm Mind
    -Substitute
    -Thunderbolt
    -Psychic

    I don't have time for the EV spread, but basically you'll sub, calm mind a few times so special attacks can't break the sub, sub again once broken, sweep physical sweepers that can wreck you, continue to use calm mind, and sweep away. It's fairly simple once you gain the hang of it. I prefer Raikou, but if you need the Snorlax/Blissey coverage, go with Jirachi. Take care.

    P.S. Be sure to give it max HP, so a seismic toss won't break the sub.
     
    BTW a Jirachi with 6 CM's OHKO's Blissey with Thunder since psychic has 135 base power after STAB we can see it OHKOing Blissey also.


    So...

    If you plan on getting 6 CMs go with Thunderbolt


    lol
     
    Wish is better for Jirachi.

    It needs to be able to heal.
     
    The only time a sweeper needs to heal is when it is really low on health. Since Wish doens't provide instant healing, there is no point in putting it on the sweeper Jirachi. (If you need instant healing, use Chesto Rest, lol) Wish works on the hax set, since that set is more of a sponge than a sweeper. For my set, Substitute is absolutely crucial. If you use Raikou, you'll know what I mean. Take care.
     
    I know why Raikou has it, and he doesn't have Wish or Recover, and he is also prone to Toxic without it.

    Jirachi uses Wish better than Sub in my opinion.
     
    go for physical jirachi

    max atk max def
    nature adamant

    hp steel
    aerial ace
    sth
    thunder wave

    i think
     
    That will have big trouble with Steel type pokemon, and Steelix in particular since you can't Thunder Wave it.

    Wishrachi is better :P
