Let's have a thread about competitive sets for new Pokemon. I don't have much experience in team building but i'm planning to start with SM.

Araquanid
Ability: Water Bubble
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 SpD
Brave Nature
- Entrainment
- Leech Life
- Liquidation
- Aqua Ring

Don't know what item to put and i'm going to use him with Assault Vest Golisopod in doubles. You can make fun of it if you want as long as you post your own sets or how to improve others.

>entrainment/aqua ring with assault vest

There are honestly better receptors of water bubble than golisopod as well. You don't want something super slow that shares the same weaknesses
>>
>>30000105
>entrainment/aqua ring with assault vest
Golisopod is the one with assault vest, not sure what to use on this fella. You are probably right about using a better pokemon. I just love that bug so much.

Mimikyu @ Life Orb
Ability: Disguise
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Play Rough
- Shadow Sneak
- Shadow Claw
- Swords Dance

I think Mimikyu's going to do very well competitively. Disguise gives it a free switch-in which is useful in a pinch.
>>
>>30000209

Shit, yeah I misread.

Anyways, I'd say replace aqua ring with wide guard and anything to enhance its livability, like leftovers
>>
>>30000263
Isn't there a better option then running 2 ghost type moves on him? You could use Wood Hammer or Leech Life or even replace Swords Dance with Z-Splash for that +3 Attack.
>>
>>30000390
Life Orb at +2 is better than being without it at +3
>>
>>30000263

Instead of going full offensive, I'd definitely say mimikyu was made for utility. You might be able to take advantage of that free switch in with a red card. Mimikyu with disguise and red card can fuck up any set up set once per battle acting as a one time get out of jail free card. Willowisp/thunder wave with disguise can also cripple a sweeper that might otherwise ruin your team.

Dhelmise @ Assult Vest / Leftovers / Life Orb
252 HP / 252 Atk
Brave Nature
-Rapid Spin / Giga Drain
-Anchor Shot
-Power Whip
-Shadow Claw / Gyro Ball(?)

>>30000263
Replace shadow claw with leech life.
>>
>>30000390
For the last time, Swords Dance + Life Orb does more damage than +3.

Fuck off with this Z-splash meme.
>>
Golisopod @ Assault Vest
Ability: Emergency Exit
EVs: 124 HP / 248 Atk / 136 Def
Adamant Nature
- Liquidation
- First Impression
- Leech Life
>>
>>30000390
>>30000676
>replace shadow claw with leech life

Noted, thanks fellas.
>>
>>30000758
didnt know what else to throw on it
>>
>>30000758
Sucker Punch, Aqua Jet

Yeah, the 70 BP is decent STAB +2 shadow sneak should be sufficient, especially if with a life orb. Leech life is good as its physical, provides decent coverage, and could restpre a bit of HP in a pinch.
>>
I'm curious, but what is a good nature to go for each legendaries and ultra beasts? Just starting on moon, and I'd like to know what is a good nature to reset for.
>>
This thing is not going to be as popular as the other Tapus, but it's my favorite so I made a set for it.

Tapu Fini @ leftovers/terrain extender
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
-Nature's Madness
-Taunt
-Defog
-Moonblast/brine/hydro pump

Makes an amazing stallbreaker/defogger and misty terrain setter. I've been running moonblast in the 4th slot but I've seen people argue brine for how well it synergizes with nature's madness.
>>
>>30000867
Just get whatever you find and then correct its nature in a program later. Pokemon is a game for chill, not for stress.
>>
>>30000867
Solgaleo: Adamant, Jolly, Naughty, Impish
Lunala: Modest, Timid, Bold
Jellyfish UB: TImid, Naive
Muscle Moisquito: Adamant
Beauty: Naive, Hasty, Jolly, Timid
Ya BOY tree: Modest

Koko: Timid, Naive
Fini: Modest, Bold, Timid
Lele: Modest, Timid
Bulu: Adamant

Missed some but that should suffice for most of em
>>
>>30001003

>Ya BOY tree

Celesteele? And thanks, that should suffice.
>>
>>30001046
Xerkitree or whatever.
>>
>>30001046
Nah Xurkitree

And I have no idea what the fuck Celesteelia is trying to do with that movepool but go with Brave (slow mixed), Naive (Autotomize), or Sassy (defensive) just in case.

Nah nah man. Xurkitree. When he got leaked with the demo the majority thought he was Guzma's UB counterpart so now he's Ya Boi Tree.
>>
>>30001003
>Ya BOY tree: Modest
The one I caught was legit timid And 31 speed and spatk Should I just keep it like that?
>>
>>30001135
Yeah it's the thing's second best nature, and works if you wanna slap a Scarf on it. Also works when you're running Tail Glow and you don't want to get outsped by Jolly Bisharp or Gyarados

>tfw I went with Adamant because of Heavy Slam in combination with outweighing literally every Pokemon that exists so far

It's been working pretty well, actually. This thing isn't really limited to any particular moveset, but I can see a physical attack one doing it some big favors.
>>
>>30001240
What moves do you have on it? Besides thicc slam obviously.
>>
>>30001240
what else though besides heavy slam?
leech seed? ingrain? fly?
>>
>>30001272
>>30001284
I've been running:

Heavy Slam
Earthquake
Fire Blast (for coverage)
Leech Seed

You can probably swap Leech Seed for something else, but I like having it for recovery. A decent alternative is Autotomize.
>>
>>30001272
>>30001444

yea celesteela is really versatile, running mixed is a decent option- heavy slam will likely outdamage flash cannon even on special sets
giga drain is another option if you want to run AV, which i personally think she gets more milage out of than leech seed. Even after autotomize, heavy slam will hit for full damage on most of OU- and nothing that she'd rather hit with a different move
>>
>>30001569
oh almost forgot, she also learns flame charge
>>
>>30001601
What's a good EV spread for it? I got an Adamant with maxed Attack.
>>
>>29999945
Anyone know if any helpful methods for getting hidden abilities exist this game?
>>
So, Decidueye or Primarina?
>>
>>30002392
Primarina is the only starter with a shot at UU or better until hidden abilities.
>>
>>30002587
>look at the new tier listing
>decidueye and primarina are in OU
>didn't bother to look up incineroar
>>
>>30002716
Everything is OU right now. The lower tiers have not been made yet.
