So i recently bred a Modest nature 4iv pic related. Only issue? It's ability is Torrent and not Protean. Should I train it up anyway as some insane, water type glass cannon, or keep breeding another 5 boxes worth of Froakies to get the better ability?

Tl;dr: is Torrent Greninja worth the type of day?

Is timid the better nature? I figured boosting his already retardedly high SpAtk was a good move, since it's fast as fuck already. Is timid that much better?

I have a 5IV Protean Timid, and it's worth it.

Timid allows you to outspeed shit that would otherwise ruin your day, and protean would make up for not having modest.

When in doubt, +speed nature is always the way to go.

Yes. It really needs the speed. Life Orb + Protean STAB already makes his attacks hit like a truck.

Also, I recently caught a zoroark. Any ways you guys know to really fuck people over with him? His ability seems like it could be potentially funny.

Team Preview ruins most of his fun now. But you can always try to find a pokemon it shares moves with, especially one with a typing that Zoroark's typing would resist SE attacks.

It's more fun in theory, but Greninja has such a mediocre attack stat. I'm thinking of running it mixed, with the focus being on special attack.

It really fucking needs the Speed, otherwise shit that you would have outspeed and OHKO will in turn outspeed you and OHKO you.

Also, Naive is better if you are running any physical move on it (Shadow Sneak or U-Turn)
