Greedent @ any berryAbility: Cheek PouchEVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpDAdamant Nature- Stuff Cheeks- Facade- Body Press- Crunch
With Stuff Cheeks, Greedent will eat its berry, restore some HP from Cheek Pouch, and gain a +2 defense boost. It then just hits hard with Facade, Body Press, and Crunch.
Honestly it’s kinda obvious what you should use for Greedent. (With Trick Room) Just run this:
Greedent @ Sitrus BerryAbility: Cheek PouchEVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpDBrave Nature- Belly Drum- Crunch- Body Slam/Facade- Fire Fang
Go for the Belly Drum right when Greedent comes out. It’ll eat it’s sitrus berry and then be healed to full with cheek pouch. Then just use your other moves depicting the situation. Try putting this on a trick room team. For a trick roomer, I’d recommend Runerigus.
Good luck using this!
Well, this greedent is very op, and here’s my strategy for this little chickAbility: Cheek PouchItems: Sitrus BerryEVs: 252 HP / 96Def / 160Sp.DefNature: Sassy (+Spd / -Speed)-Stockpile (increase to a super tank)-Gyro ball (With sassy nature, this would be so Op)-Super Fang-Counter:( Obviously you gonna get attack by a physical fighting attacker , plus you are slower , this gonna do a double damage, so wildddd)TIPs: You should use stockpile first , then if you can tank some of the hit use another stockpile, after that base on the opp , wether the opp is , use the move that will super effect against it.
I’m going to do a different set so
Greedent @ Liechi BerryAbility: Cheer PouchEVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SpDCareful Nature- Stuff Cheeks- Body Slam / Facade- Earthquake- Crunch / Ice Fang / Fire Fang / Thunder Fang / Body Press
This is a Stall Pokémon which can hit hard, too.Stuff Cheeks is quite strong, so practically at low speed use this move turn one, but if you’re using Trick Room then use it in the second turn. Body Slam and Facade are STAB moves, choose the latter if you fear status conditions. Earthquake is a good coverage move and boasts a good Base Power, and the last move can be Crunch, the elemental fangs or Body Press. If you’re running Body Press, you may consider changing the 252 SpD EVs to 252 Def EVs, to make it a physical wall. You can also run 252 Atk EVs than 252 HP.
Greedent @ Apicot Berry / Sitrus BerryAbility: Cheek PouchEVs: 252 HP/ 44 Atk / 124 Def/ 84 SpDRelaxed Nature- Stuff Cheeks / Stockpile- Crunch / Payback / Thief- Body Press- Super Fang
Stuff Cheeks is to be used with Apicot Berry, and Stockpile with Sitrus Berry.Use Stuff Cheeks or Stockpile to get tanky, then use Body Press as your main attack with a Dark-type move as coverage and Super Fang to break down defensive tanks and walls.
Chungus (Greedent) @ Ganlon Berry / Figi BerryAbility: Cheek PouchEVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 DefRelaxed NatureIVs: 0 Spe- Body Press- Stuff Cheeks- Gyro Ball- Psychic Fangs
Psychic Fangs is to get rid of screens and take out some fighting types. Use Stuff Cheeks immediately to skyrocket your defence. Ganlon Berry turns the 2x boost to a 2.5x boost, however the Figi Berry increases the healing you would get from Cheek Pouch. Either way, this will do massive damage and is incredibly hard to kill. Gyro Ball is there to take advantage of your abysmal speed, and turn it into a lethal weapon. This hasn’t failed me yet, but I’ve only been testing it for a few hours (nickname is optional, but recommended for a performance boost lol).
Greedent @ Figy BerryAbility: GluttonyEVs: 252 HP / 252 ATK / 4 DEFBrave Nature-Belly Drum-Gyro Ball-Facade-Crunch
Haven’t done the calculation so hopefully HP will drop to half after using Belly Drum which will activate Gluttony and regain health with Figy Berry. May need to tinker with HP to make it work. Works best with trick room support.
Greedent @ Sitrus BerryAbility: Cheek PouchEVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpDAdamant Nature- Belly Drum- Body Slam- Psychic Fangs- Crunch
Role: Physical TankBelly Drummaximizes Greedent’s Attack, but cuts its HP to 50%. Then, the Sitrus Berry will activate, restoring 25% of Greedent’s HP, and Cheek Pouch will activate, restoring the rest of Greedent’s HP.Body Slamis STAB, and has a good chance to paralyze the opponent.Psychic Fangsis to cover Fighting types, and it breaks Reflect and Light Screen.Crunchis for Ghost types that won’t take much damage from Psychic Fangs.
Greedent @ Aguav BerryAbility: Cheek PouchEVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 DefBrave NatureIVs: 0 Spe- Belly Drum- Substitute- Super Fang- Gyro Ball
Okay, okay, so hear me out. 0 speed Iv because of gyro ball, because Greedent won’t be outspeeding anything anyway, so 0 speed IVs increases gyro ball’s strength.
Belly drum and substitute are obvious, sub is for protection while you belly drum, because Greedent is so tanky that the substitute might actually take 2 hits to break.
Alternatively, you good use the substitute just as an extra layer of defense.
After you’ve belly drummed and subbed, Greedent will eat it’s aguav berry, restoring 33% of it’s hp, cheek pouch stacks with this, which gives you a whopping 66% regen.
Super fang is so you can lower you’re target’s hp if you think that gyro ball won’t OHKO, although you could swap it out for any other decent move.
And that is my set, because Greedent is funny.
Nature: ImpishAbility: Cheek PouchItem: Sitrus Berry (Fills hp to regen sub hp loss use stuff cheeks to get the most from it.)Ev’s Def (25 Iron)Sp. def (25 zink) optional fill ev’s with attack (protein) or spd (Carbon)Moveset:StockpileStuff CheeksBody PressSubstitute
Notes: Stock pile to 3 and Body press will do its work (Higher def stronger Body Press) and make a brick wall if done right!
Please Comment ways to improve this setup :D !
