    I would like your opinion on my Yanmega please:

    Yanmega@Expert Belt
    Modest
    Speed Boost
    IV's - 31 Speed, 31 Sp. Atk, 30 HP, 26 Atk, 26 Def, 23 Sp. Def
    252 Sp. Atk, 252 Speed, 6 HP
    Hypnosis/Air Slash (?)
    Protect
    Bug Buzz
    HP Ice (70)

    The one thing I am wondering on is whether I should switch Hypnosis with Baton Pass, to pass on the Speed boost I get. I will almost always use protect first turn, to get the speed boost. Hypnosis can become a great weapon once it is fast enough, and Bug Buzz and HP Ice (70) can handle many who try to counter yanmega.

    Also on the agenda though, is the thought of exchanging Hypnosis with Air Slash, for more attacking options, although this would defeat the speed bosst - sleep set I was explaining earlier. Many battles are played with the Sleep Clause, so perhaps it would be better with Air Slash over Hypnosis. What do you think?

    Regards,

    ~M51

    You posted the exact same thing really...6 in HP, not dwefenses IMO...I like air slash, but hypnosis is a nice option. Just depends on your team I guess.
