Role: Annoying HaxerDunsparce (M) @ LeftoversAbility: Serene GraceEVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 SpDJolly Nature- Body Slam- Coil- Rock Slide- Zen Headbutt
This guy is rather beastly.
Body slam = 60% Chance of Paralyzed opponentCoil = More Accuracy for Rock Slide and Zen Headbutt, with More Attack and defense.Zen Headbutt = Now that they’re Paralyzed, Flinch!Rock Slide = Continuing with the Flinch Hax
DUNSPARCE IS A GOD
Dunsparce @ Choice ScarfAbility: Serene GraceEVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 SpeTimid NatureIVs: 0 Atk- Flamethrower- Ice Beam- Thunderbolt- Shadow Ball
This Dunsparce is afast special sweeper. Itswide variety of movesallow it to use theChoice Scarfto itsfullest potential. Flamethrowercan cripple any physical sweeper, aka a Fighting-Type, that comes in thanks to its possible burn effect.Ice Beamcan freeze the opponent’s Pokémon, forcing them to either switch or wait for it to thaw out. This gives Dunsparce an opportunity to sweep if they stay in.Thunderbolt is forslowing down faster threats like Crobat, Weavile, Froslass, and Starmie. Since Dunsparce has max EVs in Speed as well as a Choice Scarf, it is very likely to outspeed if it gets a paralyze.Finally, Shadow Ball is for all the Ghost-Types that thought they were safe fromthe godly wrath of Dunsparce.It also canlower the opponent’s Sp. Def stat, making it deal even more damage. Plus,Serene Grace boosts the chance of the burn, freeze, paralyze, or Sp. Def drop happening.Since Dunsparce has a Choice Scarf, you need to choose one of these moves to sweep with.
Or you can just switch out and reset the Choice Scarf.
Remember all m ev set?Here’s one again XD
Dunsparce @ LeftoversAbility:Serene GraceEVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 20 Def / 20 SpD / 212 Spe or 248 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SpeedCareful / Jolly / Impish Nature-Glare- Headbutt- Roost / Zen Headbutt- Rock SlideSo…it how’s its gonna works: 1.Use Glare 2.You won the game seems the Flinch chance paired with Sernence and with Paralzed and the chance to hit was only…10%LOL for the opponent and you are gonna SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPHope everyone likes it!
Dunsparce @ LeftoversAbility: RattledEVs: 252 HP / 252 SpDBold Nature- Roost- Toxic- Hex- Protect
Not much to say about this Pokemon. Its great variety of moves does make it quite strong if it had what it could take to be a staller. However it just doesn’t have the bulk for it so a set like this would have to be lower tiers. It would be amazing if any strong Pokemon could have a set like this. Just imagine if one of the great walls like lugia had a set like this.
The Serene Crippler
Dunsparce @ Sitrus Berry / Wise GlassesAbility: Serene GraceEVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 SpeCalm Nature- Shadow Ball- Water Pulse- Flamethrower- Thunderbolt
Now then. All of these moves are boosted by Serene Grace. Thunderbolt has an increased Paralyze ratio, Water Pulse has a higher confusion ratio and so on. This moveset has expansive coverage, allowing it to land a super-effective hit on eleven different types: Fire, Rock, Ground, Bug, Grass, Steel, Ice, Water, Flying, Psychic and Ghost.
Gen VII set!Role: rain sweeper/para-flincher
Dunsparce @ Damp Rock / Silk Scarf / LeftoversAbility: Serene GraceEVs: 168 HP / 92 SpA / 252 SpeModest / Timid Nature- Rain Dance- Water Pulse- Thunder- Headbutt / Air Slash / Ancient Power / Charge Beam / Dragon Rush
How it works:So you set up with Rain Dance (or Drizzle, alternatively) and use Thunder until the target is paralyzed. It might take a turn or two to paralyze, but you have a 60% chance, while dealing a massive 110 BP that is 100% accurate. After they’re paralyzed, you can either confuse the target with Water Pulse, make it flinch with any of its flinching moves, raise SpA with Charge Beam, or raise all your stats with Ancient Power.
Hope this set helps!
Let’s try something different that requires gen 2 VC transfer.
Dunsparce @ LeftoversAbility: RattledEVs: 252 HP / 128 Def / 128 SpDHardy / Docile / Bashful / Quirky / Serious Nature- Yawn- Pursuit- Dream Eater- Nightmare
Fun fact, Umbreon can use this set also, probably better, but Dunsparce kinda sucks so this gives him an interesting gimmicky moveset.
STALLERDunsparce@ LeftoversAbility: RattledEVs: 4 HP / 252 Def / 252 SpDImpish Nature- Glare- Endeavor / Flail- Protect- Toxic
Glare to paralyze opponent. Endeavor when Dunsparce is low, or Flail alternatively. Protect to stall. Toxic to badly poison the opponent.
SWEEPERDunsparce@ Muscle BandAbility: RattledEVs: 252 HP / 252 AtkAdamant Nature- Double-Edge- Earthquake- Dragon Rush- Poison Jab
Double-Edge as STAB. Earthquake, Dragon Rush and Poison Jab are STAB. Alternatively, you could swap Muscle Band for Assault Vest.
Dunsparce @ EvioliteAbility: Serene GraceEVs: 252 Hp / 252 SpA / 4 Spe (Or 4 Def)Modest NatureTera: Ghost- Calm Mind- Stored Power- Glare- Roost / Thunderbolt / Earth PowerEviolite because Dunsparce can now evolve! Serene Grace because it is probably the most useful out of the 3. Modest +SpA -Atk. Tera Ghost to be immune to its Fighting weakness. Calm Mind for setup, and for Stored Power. Stored Power is super good. Glare so you can be Faster than your target (most likely at least). Roost is to regain HP but once you turn into Ghost type people might use Dark, which makes stored power useless, so you can do Thunderbolt or Earth Power to still hit Dark types.
