Hey /vp/ what is a good setup for this cuntwrecker?

Planning on mainly just using him in-game, if that effects anything. I'm talking EV's and moveset for the most part.

Furfrou has really fucking good def.

max out hp and def, and make use of that insane physical bulk

The problem is, he has no reliable recovery apart from rest, and he really cant DO anything.

The best set i could come up with is one with roar/thunder wave/u-turn, taking hits and spreading para.

He would be pretty damn good if he got slack off, but nope, cursed with a shitty movepool.

Would a similar set work, but instead running RestoChesto? Also, I presume that his attacking move would be Return, correct?

Focus EVs on defence and HP, they are what really count as you'll want to build him into a physical wall.

Cotton Guard is a must, with U-Turn, Return, Thunder Wave, Headbutt and Sucker Punch filling in the other slots. Have him hold either leftovers of a Rocky Helmet too.

I have a Impish Furfrou@Rocky Helmet with Headbutt/Thunder Wave/Cotton Guard/U-Turn.

If I can set up a Cotton Guard or two alongside Thunder Wave, then I can just use Headbutt and the chances of them either flinching or being paralysed usually rides me through the match. You'd be surprised at how viable it is.

Now was this in-game or competitive?

Both. I usually have my lead paralyse them first which will save me one more turn. Unless they have a special attacker they're going to have a tough time taking Furfrou down, even worse if he's holding leftovers.

If you prefer defensive play then I'd suggest having a special wall to switch into such as Blissey to counter special attackers.

The one I'm using ingame has:

- Headbutt
- Thunder Wave
- Bite
- Sucker Punch

Will swap sucker punch out for Return since he outspeeds most things anyway, and TWave is only for catching Pokemon. Really he wrecks shit with headbutt anyway, so if you're just using him ingame you'll just need headbutt and bite to cover ghosts, or rock smash for rock types.

Does he learn Crunch at all?

For ingame only, I'd suggest Max Attack and HP in your EVs, and Headbutt/Return, U-Turn, Sucker Punch, Thunder Wave.

Do note that if you follow this fella's advice, while it is true that it will help ingame, it will make Furfrou useless online. You need to choose whether you want to use it online at all or not.

How about:
252 HP
126 Attack
126 Defense

Return
Cotton Guard
Thunder Wave
Bite (or Crunch, if he learns it)

Would that be an at least half-decent set?

>126 Attack

No.

Anyway I'd go 252 HP 252 SpD, since the thing has more than enough Def already.

Are you sure? Technically ruling, wouldn't this thing have a theoretical defense stat of 120, since physical attacks only do half damage?

Yes. The amazing part is that his Def EVs are doubled too. So he has a max Def of 480 at level 100 with the right nature. That's about what you'd get from a max EV good natured pokemon with a base Def of 190, and with only a single weakness (which is almost uniformly physical), and decent HP, attack, special Def, and speed stats too. But that's only if you put those EVs into Def. Otherwise, you're better off just using a real physical wall like Steelix of Metagross.
