    I've never tried this, but I find it interesting, XD.

    "image removed"
    Bold@Leftovers
    EV's: 252 Def, 252 SDef, 6 HP
    ~Shadow Tag
    -Mirror Coat
    -Counter
    -Encore
    -Splash

    Now, I think by now most people would know what the first three are for, XD. It's the Splash that makes this weird, heh. You see, the move's one advantage, believe it or not, is it's 40 PP. This can allow you to use it for stalling purposes, for one. Also, in case Encore backfires and your opponent ends up repeating a non-attacking move, you could use it(while benefiting from the Leftovers in the meantime). In both of these cases, the point would be to save the PP loss that would happen from using sure-to-fail Counter/Mirror Coats. Furthermore, it'll probably be sweet to watch your opponent's reaction when Wobbuffet decides to Splash around. :D

    I don't think I'll use it myself, as it looks too much like a novelty set. I believe I'd get better use out of Destiny Bond, for sure. ^_^

    Ehh, that's just silly to be honest. If you've got turns to spare then Wobbuffet should be setting up with Safeguard to prevent status attacks from screwing it over. Splashing away a valuable encore is a horrible waste of time. :\

    Incidentally, Encore hitting a non-attacking move is not a backfire; you should use the situation to switch in a counter (preferably one with Pursuit) or a pokémon who can use your opponent's incapacitation period to set up with stat boosts. That's the function that really turned Wobbuffet into a demi-god in advance; no matter what you did against it it had something to throw back in your face.
     
    This would work better with Calm nature, just be sure to have something to deal with physical attackers, and have this only work on special sweepers. Encore is likely to fudge most things up, but it only have 8 PP at most, so I can see it running out well before Splash does.
     
    You know, when one send a Wobbuffet out, their usual Non-Attacking move is basically going to be Dragon Dance, Swords Dance, or Nasty Plot.

    Also, Splash on Wobbuffet is retarded since the attack DOESN'T DO ANYTHING.
     
    Yes I hate stalling It makes me so mad!That set looks like a set that would make me want to kill whoever was using it and like Iceman said If you used Encore on a non-attacking move its going to be DD,SD,or NP so once Encore is over you got a sweeper with maxed out stats waiting for you!
     
    I saw somewhere that it get's Tickle, which would be better, but I'm not sure if it get's it. Also Charm works.
     
    I'm glad this thing doesn't have a recovery move, that would outclass it in the Uber environment as well...

    Mirror Coat/Counter/Taunt(just making up moves here, but that would help Wobby)/Recover

    Worst Pokemon to face ever
     
    Wobbuffet can only get seven moves, and Taunt isn't among them.
