Gunk Shot or ice beam for Ash Greninja?

So I am struggled with let Ash Greninja learn Gunk Shot or Ice beam.Nature: Hasty

Pleaselog inorregisterto add a comment.

I would use Gunk Shot for these reasons;

Ash-Greninja is better at physical moves.Gunk Shot has a 30% chance to poison the target.Although Ice Beam can freeze the target and has 100 accuracy, Gunk Shot had 120 power and can deal high damage against those Fairy types and Grass types you’re weak to.Here is a moveset I would suggest for this;

Greninja @ Poisonium Z(To make Gunk Shot evenmorepowerful).Ability: Battle Bond.Nature: Hasty.Water Shuriken(Signature Move).Gunk Shot(The Move You Suggested + Coverage).Waterfall(High STAB + works with stats).Rain Dance(Makes Water Shuriken and Waterfall more powerful).

Hope I helped :)

EDIT: I read his stats wrong; Ash-Greninja is actually better at Special Attack, but it’s attack it very good too. Either way, I’d still keep Gunk Shot for the coverage.

If you’re running a Hasty Nature, I’d recommend a mixed set with Gunk Shot, Ice Beam, Hydro Pump, and Dark Pulse with 252 Spe/252 SpA/4 Atk for the EVs, and a Life Orb. However, a much more viable set would be 252 Spe/252 SpA/4 SpD with a Timid Nature and a Choice Specs with the moves Ice Beam, Water Shuriken, Hydro Pump, and Dark Pulse. In short,for the set you are running I’d recommend both. A better set would be the smogon suggested set, not the one you’re using.
