Aegislash is a big part of my themed team based on historical Kalos, but he's also OU as a motherfucker.

What kind of non-traditional non-cookie-cutter moveset could I give him so I'm not just another faggot spamming SD+Sacred Sword?

Right now I have:

252 Atk/252 Spe/ 4 Def
Automatize
Swords Dance
Shadow Claw
Sacred Sword

Mixed attacker sets are less common.

What's the rest of your team looking like? That's a pretty cool theme
I'm going for a tropical themed team myself, Tentacruel, Tropious, Scyther... I'm not sure what other mons to use

I was kind of thinking more radical than just using special attack.

Double Team is maximum faggotry, but maybe something like:

Substitue
Double Team
Fury Cutter
Automatize

>>16820760

All Pokemon are based on either species or dex entries that mention kings, royalty, manors, or (in the case of Chesnaught) just look the part.

Pyroar - King
Aegislash - Minister
Furfrou - Guardian
Florges - Matron
Chesnaught - Knight
Tyrantrum - Despot

Exeggutor looks like a palm tree, and you could throw Infernape or any other simian Pokemon in to balance all the extra grass.

Oh shit, I love both these ideas. Gonna mix and match somea these mons, I was thinking mostly water types, but Exeggutor and Infernape would be awesome.

Can someone tell me why everyone switched from minimal speed to max fast slash? I thought the whole point is was going last so you could balk hits.

I think because it became so OU, you'd see too many Aegislash vs. Aegislash. So everybody tried to boost speed to hit first.

The only way to run Aegislash and not look like a faggot is a shadow ball spamming set. With shadow sneak to clean up literally anything that survives the first shadow ball.

That actually sounds like a lot of fun, to confuse the enemy. First building up with Sword's Dance, if the enemy is confident enough and has a physical defensive Pokémon but a weak special defense, killing with Shadow Ball would catch it by surprise.
Though, I agree that this is really dumb.

I run:
252 Sp. Attack/252 Speed/4 Defense
Modest/Timid w/ Weakness Policy
-Automotize
-King's Shield
-Shadow Ball
-Flash Cannon

Come in, start setting up, you're guaranteed to get hit with something super effective and as long as you stay in defensive stance you can take a hit and by then you should have enough speed boosts to sweep. He just doesn't like priority...

How does this sound?
@Leftovers
252 Atk/252 Sp.Atk/ 4 Sp.Def
Quiet
Shadow Ball
Flash Canon
Power Trick
King's Shield

Using Power Trick after changing to Attack Stance could make this a very bulky pokemon, and you're using it's Special Attack, so it wouldn't hurt it's offense. Though you may want a pokemon on your team that will phaze the opponent.

Speaking of Aegislash, has anyone ever used an Eviolite Doublade? Is it worth using?

Well you would be baiting anyone, just simply using it as a protect, and if they hit you with a physical contact move then there's a bonus.

I used one for my playthrough just because I didnt have a dusk stone so I just tossed him the eviolite. He becomes a Defensive monster with decent spec defense (base is 49) but he gets torn up by any special fire, ghost or dark move.

wouldnt use in competitive but fun in-game
