Hellp /vp/ I currently run this Roserade set:

Roserade @ Black Sludge
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpAtk / 252 SpD
Calm nature
- Giga Drain
- Leech Seed
- Sludge Bomb
- ?

I currently can't decide what I should run for the final move slot. I'm considering running a Fire-type coverage move in this slot. Would Weather Ball using Mega Charizard Y's Drought be viable or would I be better off running HP Fire? What would be another viable option?

Also, moveset tweaking general.

Quoted By:

If you want Fire type coverage, run HP Fire and change the ability to Technician.

But you're running a defensive set, so having 3 attack moves won't do much.

Tspike/Spikes is okay if singles.

If VGC the set is probably bad in general but sleep powder if the best option

I probably should have specified that this was on cartridge

Toxic Spikes/Spikes does sound like a compelling idea though, I'll look into that

You could try using Synthesis, since with Mega Charizard Y's Drought it could restore even more HP.

I like to use Shadow Ball for fun and counter Psychic types.

I used to run Synthesis in the final move slot but it's given physical attackers the chance to KO afterwards, so I've been trying to figure out a handy substitute

On a side note, I love how Roserade has access to lots of HP-draining and recovery moves

I'd fill the slot with sleep powder, but toxic spikes could be useful if you're going bulky

I'd run Toxic or Synthesis. If you're running Drought anyway, probably Synthesis.
