whats up /vp/
just breeding some Miniors with 5 IVs here and I was wondering, whats the best IV / EV spread for this little cutey?
i was thinking of using a set like
power gem
shell smash
acrobatics
stealth rock
but im not sure. any suggestions would be nice
anyone with suggestions can have one (orange core)
also post cute pictures of Minior
plz respond
Love this guy. I didn't know his gimmick when I first fought one.
Shell Smash
Acrobatics
stone edge
explosion
>Power gem
thats a special attack, minior is a phyiscal attacker, dont waste a slot with a gimped move.
>steal rock
Not bad, entry hazards can be set by better pokemon. Minior is a little too frail to waste a turn setting up a hazard
Is there such thing as a defensive Minior? Shell Smash sucks
>>30388113
thanks do you want one?
also what do you think about IVs and EVs?
Adamant or Lonely nature?
>>30388166
It loses all of its defense once its health gets down.
It's ability is already shell smash incarnate forme.

Minior @ White Herb
252 HP / 252 Attack / 4 Def
Adamant
Stone Edge
Acrobatics
Explosion
Shell Smash
You don't need any speed EVs because at +2 after shell smash, you outspeed jolly pheromosa.
It OHKOs all Tapus after Shell Smash.
GL it is a difficult pokemon to use and requires prediction. If you are playing doubles you may want to replace explosion with Protect.
Please give me 1

I'd appreciate one as well.If you are willing, I'm breeding 4-5 timid iv vulpix if you want one
>>30389267
i sent you the one with perfect IVs thanks!
>>30389368
TY bro

I'm running mine as a sort of trolly scout set. U-Turn, Shell Smash, Stealth Rock and Explosion. Rockium Z held for now because I just finished the game, but probably Focus Sash held for online play.
Why do they explode, I just wanted to get a cool blue/indigo one in a beast ball.
>>30390208
Mine's in a Quick Ball for exactly this reason.
>>30387567
I'm going for a mixed set:
Minior @ White Herb
252 Atk / 108 Spe / rest in SpA
Naive
Stone Edge/Power Gem
Acrobatics
Dazzling Gleam/Psychic/Earthquake
Shell Smash
108 Speed EVs means that after a shell smash you'll outspeed most anything even in shield form. IIRC only a scarfed Weaville outspeeds you.
>>30388113
Its sp.attack is the same as its regular attack dumbass.
>>30388804
This set is good or if you want to use power gem which is weaker but more accurate the stone edge then you can run a somewhat mixed set, maybe like 148 in sp. atk rezt in atk.
Also purple a best.
>>30390830
Purple would be a best if my in-game bro hadn't been green.
>>30390830
Wait fuck explosion, run earthquake instead. Unless your galvanite golem you shouldn't use explosion.
>>30390830
>Its sp.attack is the same as its regular attack dumbass.
Do you understand how stat investment works you fucking retard
>>30390859
Base stats you fucking idiot.
Also I said if you used power gem run it mixed for acrobatics and earthquake. After shell smash the difference barely matters.
>>30390983
He said Minior is a physical attacker and he's right. Its base special being the same is irrelevant to that fact.
>>30391070
>has same attack and sp. attack
>not a sp. attacker
You're a fucking idiot. Yeah it has a better physical set but it can still be run as mixed if you want power gem.
>>30390983
It's probably better to focus on one or the other though due to EV investments etc
>>30391179
You can't argue with retards who insist on playing by their own made up definitions, Anon.
>>30391179
It doesn't have any fucking moves to be a special attacker you complete asshat. All you can do is shoehorn Power Gem into a mixed set, but you absolutely must invest in attack to be effective because of its overwhelmingly physical movepool.
So no, it is not a special attacker by any means.
>>30390983
Don't try to argue with retards. Let them run Miss Edge instead and get walled by Skarmory. I also think a mix set is cooler.
I'm going for a special attacker.
Shell smash
Psychic
Power gem
Dazzling gleam
If you have any leftover can I trade you for one? Please xD
>>30392151
Maybe run earthquake instead of psychic.
>>30392151

I used a purple in-game, but i think i'll be trying to breed for a useable shinyso i can name him 「Blackstar」
