Let's have a thread about competitive sets for new Pokemon. I don't have much experience in team building but i'm planning to start with SM.

Araquanid
Ability: Water Bubble
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 SpD
Brave Nature
- Entrainment
- Leech Life
- Liquidation
- Aqua Ring

Don't know what item to put and i'm going to use him with Assault Vest Golisopod in doubles. You can make fun of it if you want as long as you post your own sets or how to improve others.

>entrainment/aqua ring with assault vest

There are honestly better receptors of water bubble than golisopod as well. You don't want something super slow that shares the same weaknesses

Golisopod is the one with assault vest, not sure what to use on this fella. You are probably right about using a better pokemon. I just love that bug so much.

Mimikyu @ Life Orb
Ability: Disguise
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Play Rough
- Shadow Sneak
- Shadow Claw
- Swords Dance

I think Mimikyu's going to do very well competitively. Disguise gives it a free switch-in which is useful in a pinch.

Shit, yeah I misread.

Anyways, I'd say replace aqua ring with wide guard and anything to enhance its livability, like leftovers

Isn't there a better option then running 2 ghost type moves on him? You could use Wood Hammer or Leech Life or even replace Swords Dance with Z-Splash for that +3 Attack.

Life Orb at +2 is better than being without it at +3

Instead of going full offensive, I'd definitely say mimikyu was made for utility. You might be able to take advantage of that free switch in with a red card. Mimikyu with disguise and red card can fuck up any set up set once per battle acting as a one time get out of jail free card. Willowisp/thunder wave with disguise can also cripple a sweeper that might otherwise ruin your team.

Yeah, the 70 BP is decent STAB +2 shadow sneak should be sufficient, especially if with a life orb. Leech life is good as its physical, provides decent coverage, and could restpre a bit of HP in a pinch.

I'm curious, but what is a good nature to go for each legendaries and ultra beasts? Just starting on moon, and I'd like to know what is a good nature to reset for.

This thing is not going to be as popular as the other Tapus, but it's my favorite so I made a set for it.

Tapu Fini @ leftovers/terrain extender
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
-Nature's Madness
-Taunt
-Defog
-Moonblast/brine/hydro pump

Makes an amazing stallbreaker/defogger and misty terrain setter. I've been running moonblast in the 4th slot but I've seen people argue brine for how well it synergizes with nature's madness.

Just get whatever you find and then correct its nature in a program later. Pokemon is a game for chill, not for stress.

Nah Xurkitree

And I have no idea what the fuck Celesteelia is trying to do with that movepool but go with Brave (slow mixed), Naive (Autotomize), or Sassy (defensive) just in case.

Yeah it's the thing's second best nature, and works if you wanna slap a Scarf on it. Also works when you're running Tail Glow and you don't want to get outsped by Jolly Bisharp or Gyarados

>tfw I went with Adamant because of Heavy Slam in combination with outweighing literally every Pokemon that exists so far

It's been working pretty well, actually. This thing isn't really limited to any particular moveset, but I can see a physical attack one doing it some big favors.

I've been running:

Heavy Slam
Earthquake
Fire Blast (for coverage)
Leech Seed

You can probably swap Leech Seed for something else, but I like having it for recovery. A decent alternative is Autotomize.

yea celesteela is really versatile, running mixed is a decent option- heavy slam will likely outdamage flash cannon even on special sets
giga drain is another option if you want to run AV, which i personally think she gets more milage out of than leech seed. Even after autotomize, heavy slam will hit for full damage on most of OU- and nothing that she'd rather hit with a different move
