>>14879945Togekiss is overall better than both thanks to key resistances and a infinitely greater flexibility than both.
>>14882364>130 Base power STAB PsychicsDude Psychic is not that powerful and doesn't cover a lot of threats well, thankfully Fighting is prominent (and contrary to common belief, beating Fighting is what makes Fairy so good, Dragon is a bonus).
>Focus Blast or Dazzling Gleam for Dark typesDark is not that common and Espeon does not learn Focus Blast. Tyranitar will shrug off Moonblast and kill Espeon effortlessly. Shadow Ball also isn't that great a coverage move but Gengar just dies to Psychic anyway. Jellicent and Aegislash are helpful kills but Aegislash will also kill Espeon effortlessly.
>Calm Mind or WishEspeon is a shit Wish passer due to its awful HP stat. If you want a Calm Mind set you have vastly superior options offensively unless you want to just Baton Pass it. Espeon is ass and And Moonblast really doesn't do anything to save it since the main counters to Espeon just don't care. Espeon IS used solely because of its ability and popularity because the Pokemon IS mediocre as hell.
