Cress is pretty good, but Nocty is unique and almost never used. c;

It's not used that much because blissey and cress are being used lol

It still works though. ;3

Kind of xP

I'm going to get a Blissey and name her Bch. x3

good for you

this is a set i have never seen

mixed attacker
nasty plot
ice beam
hp fire/ghost
brick break
focus sash/life orb
252 spe, 32 attack, 220 sp attack
naive/rash
mostly just a novelty set but it might actually work because everyone asumes itll be physical
--the idea here is get in a nasty plot or 2 then attack with with stab ice beam, hp fire is for steels, ghost is just for the hit everything neutrally with the ghost and fighting combo, brick break is mostly to keep bliss from walling and to take out things like ttar and other weavile
IF you do use hp fire tentacruel walls this set completely

The idea is kinda cool...the only thing better about this set than the other sets though is surprise. Which is always nice to have though ;P
Nasty Plot once, they switch cause they're like wtf and you nasty plot again xD lol

I have also never seen this, but it will be a little hard maybe to pull off, Blissy still walls you pretty well.

Well no crap you've never seen this o.o

A moveset which, with a little research, I've discovered it's only a slight variation of another one out there, but oh well.

Cacturne@Focus Sash
Jolly
252atk/ 252spd/ 6hp
-Seed Bomb
-Sucker Punch
-Swords Dance
-Thunder Punch

This set is AWESOME with good prediction. The first thing to do is to Swords Dance. Even with only 1 SD, I've been able to take out Gengars in one shot with Seed Bomb. On enemies you know are going to set up, use Seed Bomb(Assuming you have SD already. If not, use that.) and on enemies you know will attack you, you Sucker Punch them in the face! Thunder Punch is there because Gyrados just love to set up DD on you, so you can just Thunder Punch'em and they'll most likely be OHKO'D. With Stone Edge and Ice Fang being pretty much their only method of bringing you down, Cacturne makes a great Gyrados counter. Also, it makes and awesome Celebi counter if you have anything that can beat it down(besides Sucker Punch, but I've found Celebi rarely use their attacking move).

How come T-punch is in there? Return or Payback would be good too.

Any set can be amazing if you predict right. :D
Taking out gengars with physical moves is hard. o.o'
And also, anything faster than it pwns it. They attack, you swords dance, they attack again and you die xD

This set really isn't thought out that much, nor does it seem like it'll do much of anything to anything lol
What happens when celebi uses HP Fire/Ice against you? You can't budge that thing very much, especially if it sets up. Does recover ring a bell? xD

But I guess this could be decent if you can get around the horrible speed o.o

Why Thunder Punch? Well, that's explained in the description. I HAVE, from experience, been able to take out Gengar, so that's not an issue. As for the set, it may not have been thought out much, but it has proven to be very useful in OU and UU. I also don't see much Celebi's with Hidden Power of any type.

I know, but payback would cover you more than thunderpunch, in all tiers. (;
It's not that cacturne is bad, it's just that there are others that are better xD
I respect your guts to use this pokemon with such confidence though :O

Better pokemon? Adam would beg to differ. XD And true, there ARE better pokemon, but anyone can use Salamence. I prefer a surprise attack. ;D

Smeargle Sweep O'DOOM. >=D

252 attack 252 speed 4 in HP Adamant nature

Life orb/lum berry will probably work. ;D

Moves are

belly drum
spore
bullet punch/explosion (If using explosion use jolly nature)
extremespeed


Yeah, get the free switch in on something slower, or have lum berry and predict a status move from a wall like blissy. Spore, and then belly drum maximizing your attack. Bullet punch for gengar/frosslass etc. A plus 6 STAB extreme speed plus life or will toast any sweeper that doesn't resist or is not sashed. And can also OHKO most non-physical walls. And if you choose explosion, well, whatever they switch or whatever takes the explosion after a belly drum, will be dead unless sashed. Period. I mean a max HP max defense skarmory is OHKO'd. ;D

brick break 1-2 hit kos



It must have max attack then. =/
And the blissy must not have max HP max defense like mine does.

stab exetreme speed hits blissy harder

What if a faster pokemon using a priority move?
Or what if a poke has a lum berry?
And what if something /does/ have a sash? xD



Whole point is late game sweeper. I mean, if the setw as mega uber, it would be OU, and some Japanese kid would pwn us all using it. =/
I mean, it's not exactly full proof, but funny to pull it off. ;D

Or uses a priority move and happens to be faster than you?

Anything can be a late game sweep, really xP

Okay, so this is a little combo I thought of, and yes, I did think of this myself and it actually does work because it's been tested (to an extent). So if you feel like being creative or wanna try something new against your friend, here is a little two-poke combo you can fit into your team. Only minimal predicting is needed, really.

Electivire - life orb / motor drive / lonely
Evs: 252 Atk / 80 SpA / 176 Spe
- Cross Chop
- Earthquake
- Thunderbolt
- Flamethrower

Mantine - leftovers / water absorb / calm
Evs: 252 HP / 252 SpD / 6 Spe
- Toxic
- Protect
- Surf
- Ice beam

Right off the bat, you should notice that attacking moves here provide epic coverage. Hits everything super-effectively. Except fighting. But that's a cheap shot. ):

Notice anything else?
What is Mantine x4 weak to?
And what does Electivire's ability do?
Switch, then earthquake those electrics! ):

Then do whatever.

And after you've had your fun and a ground type comes in, switch the flying-type Mantine back in. Surf 'em. Ice beam gives more coverage.

Toxic and protect if necessary.

Bulk up Electivire, give it expert belt, or add defense EV's for Mantine, if you need to.

Anyone can use this combo, and I don't care if you steal it. Seriously. xD
I find this combo really fun to use, and it fits well into almost all teams, not to mention no one will expect it.
There's no stopping someone from using an electric attack against Mantine...it's so inviting! D;

So tell me what you think. If you decide to use this, you can comment about it for others if you want.

OKAY SO MAYBE THIS IS A LOT LIKE THE GYARA/EVIRE COMBO, if there is one. Honest to god, I was not aware of this 0_O

Anything can be a late game sweep, really xP




Well, take YOUR team for example shall we? After spiritomb, heatran, and gliscor are gone or at like half HP that is game. ;D

Yeah after the three pokemon that counter it, you can sweep
Sounds good to me

fire punch and thunder punch hit harder with evire

Not when he's burned or a poke with high defense comes out.
