Post your unique Pokemon movesets here~ Dusclops / Eviolite EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4SpD - Curse - Will O Wisp - Sucker Punch / Shadow Sneak - Pain Split This Dusclops is pretty much designed to annoy the opponent, and it does a great job. Pros:- With eviolite, defensive bulk is one of the highest in the game. - Curse cripples the opponent, and works synergistically with Pain Split. - Will O Wisp burns the opponent, further draining their health and more importantly halving their attack. - Sucker Punch is stronger than Shadow Sneak, but Shadow Sneak is more likely to hit the target. Cons:- Taunt weak. - Magic Bounce. - Knock Off. Its evolved form is probably better in OU, but you can use the exact same set just with Leftovers instead of Eviolite!

Not sure how unique it is, but physical Nidoking instead of special.
Nidoking is said to have better special coverage, but with this set I think it covers a good number of things easily.
252 attack, 252 speed, 4 special defense Sheer Force, Choice Scarf
Earthquake, Fire Punch, Ice Punch, Poison Jab
It works well against pretty much everything he has a move for, he usually goes first and usually gets the KO. There are exceptions, but not terribly many. Some Pokemon with extremely high speed or defense can be a problem.
The biggest flaw is having to switch him out to change moves. He's an excellent revenge killer and a good way to clear out annoying Pokemon like Landorus and Gliscor, among other things.

If I were to use a physical Nidoking, I'd probably attempt to capitalise on how it learns Head Smash and Sucker Punch. This set isn't really my creation since I've seen it around before, but it has potential:
Kingdra @ Scope Lens Ability: Sniper EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Modest Nature - Focus Energy - Draco Meteor - Scald - Hidden Power [Fire]
I haven't tried this out too much, Timid might be better. And Hydro Pump could work over Scald. Basically after a Focus Energy, you get 100% crits because of Scope Lens. With Sniper, this gives you 2x damage, basically a Nasty Plot. Except... Draco Meteor can be spammed repeatedly, without the SpAtk drops affecting it!
As for other, worse sets I tried, these were all in one team: Sylveon @ Choice Band Ability: Pixilate EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpA Brave Nature - Double-Edge - Return - Hyper Voice - Baton Pass
Blissey @ Leftovers Ability: Serene Grace EVs: 252 Def / 252 SpA / 4 Spe Modest Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Counter - Hyper Voice - Focus Blast - Fire Blast
Swellow @ Choice Specs Ability: Scrappy EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Naive Nature - Boomburst - Brave Bird - Return - U-turn
Sylveon always 2HKOs Chansey which is interesting, but you'll probably KO yourself from recoil too. Blissey was just a gimmick to get some surprise kills, and Swellow's Boomburst actually does some decent damage in some occasions, though physical is easily better. I'm just using these to mess around ><.
And, a set I haven't tried this gen but that was quite fun in gen4: Scyther @ Salac Berry Ability: Swarm EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe Jolly Nature IVs: 29 HP - Substitute - Swords Dance - X-Scissor - Reversal Sub down to 1HP, getting a SD if possible, activating both Swarm and the Salac Berry, now fire off Swarm-boosted X-Scissors and 200 BP Reversals! This is destroyed by priority, Ferrothorn/Rocky Helmet and sand/hail though. Liechi Berry/Agility Scizor is also an option!

I'll mention one I use for kicks;
Aegislash ('Living on the edge') @ Leftovers Ability: Stance Change EVs: 252 HP / 200 Def / 52 Sp. Def Careful Nature - King's Shield - Rock Slide - Substitute - Reflect
Yeah, I didn't go for an offensive sword. Oh well. This beauty'll work best if opponent has been burnt first. Set up Reflect, throw in a substitute, and then bob and weave with King's Shield and Rock Slide as you go along, hoping that Knock Off isn't on the table. Enjoyyy.
