Lemme make this clear from the start, this is not a RMT if you couldn't tell.
Okay so like, in this thread, people post their original movesets or take a moveset and change it a bit from the standard and people rate it. I heard this idea failed in the past, but now that HG/SS is out, there are alot of new moves, so lets try this again?
Format:
Picture (Optional)
Role
Pokemon@ Item
Nature (+Stat / -Stat)
Ability
EV Spread
- Move 1
- Move 2
- Move 3
- Move 4
Short description of the set.
Lets get started, shall we?
__________________________
Lead
Mismagius@ Choices Specs
Timid (+Speed / -Attack)
Levitate
6 HP / 252 SpAtk / 252 Speed
- Shadow Ball
- HP Fighting / Thunder Bolt
- Trick
- Nasty Plot
I know what you're thinking, Choice Specs with Nasty Plot, you're a noob. But no, this set works out great. Since the current metagame is all SRSRSR lead, use Trick to outspeed them and they use SR, they get stuck on SR, Nasty Plot on the switch.

Physical Sweeper
Kingler@ Life Orb
Adamant (+Atk / -SpAtk)
Hyper Cutter
152 HP / 252 Atk / 100 Speed
- Agility
- Crab Hammer
- Rock Slide
- X-Scissors
This set is great for a late game sweeper. It resists Bullet Punch which is so common in this metagame and can Agility up on the switch. After Agility, it reaches 450 Speed which outspeeds alot of stuff. Kingler has massive Attack and Def, making it perfect for coming in on a Physical Attacker and using Agility then trying to get a sweep with it. Superpower is also an option on here for Blissey and Snorlax.

Special Wall / Physical Crippler
Rotom-H@ Leftovers
Calm (+SpDef / -Attack)
Levitate
252 HP / 252 SpDef / 6 SpAtk (Or 6 Def)
- Thunder Bolt / Discharge
- Shadow Ball
- Will-O-Wisp
- Pain Split
This set is just like a more SpDef Bulky-oriented Noir, that's about it. Discharge is there for the parahax. Not much else to talk about here.

Physical Sweeper
Feraligatr@ Life Orb / Leftovers
Adamant (+Attack / -SpAtk)
Torrent
158 HP / 252 Atk / 100 Speed
- Swords Dance
- Aqua Jet
- Earthquake
- Ice Punch
A set like this will become very OU soon since boosting up + priority is the best thing to use if you wanna win with a clean sweep at the end.
Physical Sweeper
Feraligatr@ Life Orb / Leftovers
Adamant (+Attack / -SpAtk)
Torrent
6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Speed
- Swords Dance
- Aqua Jet
- Waterfall
- Return
Another great set using SD AJ on Gatr. This set is just like the previous set, is just focuses more on power then it does on coverage. The only thing that this is walled by is Shedinja (which isn't a probably since 99% of teams have SR and an anti-spinner), Empoleon and I think 1 more thing that I can't remember at this moment. So yeah, like I said, this set is more power then coverage. Nuff said.

Physical Sweeper / Scout
Gallade@ Leftovers
Adamant (+Attack / -SpAtk) / Brave (+Attack / -Speed)
Steadfast
Adamant 200 HP / 252 Atk / 58 Speed
Brave 200 HP / 252 Atk / 58 SpDef
- Substitute
- Encore
- Focus Punch
- Night Slash / Psycho Cut
Sub+Encore is a great combo. Sub on their predicted switch, then Encore whatever they do on that turn. Brave is also a good nature for this spread since you would want to go last if you're using Encore just to scout that they are doing. Then if they set up, you can just attack since they usually will switch. Focus Punch is a great move, obviously, and with STAB, it just owns anything. Night Slash I would use over Psycho Cut, true, Psycho Cut does get STAB, but Night Slash gets more coverage, and that's more important at times.

Cleric
Umbreon@ Leftovers
Sassy (+SpDef / -Speed)
Synchronize
252 HP / 6 Def / 252 SpDef
- Heal Bell
- Wish
- Toxic
- Protect / Baton Pass
This set is another Special Wall and uses Heal Bell from the HG/SS tutors for a Cleric set. Heal Bell is obviously the main move of this set, giving it the name of the Cleric set, it heals status on your party. Wish is also a nice move for a Cleric set, being it able to heal other Pokes with a combo with Protect or Baton Pass. Protect is a nice option for the Leftovers gain and Toxic damage if you got Toxic off on them already. Baton Pass is also a nice option with Wish, you can make sure the Pokemon you want to heal won't die on the switch in, seeing how your opponent will probably attack you first, you Baton Pass to a Pokemon that is really weak, and Wish heals it. If you switched in your Pokemon, then your switch in would take that attack and it might have died. Also, Dry Baton Passing is so cash.
