Simisear (F) @ Salac Berry

Trait: Gluttony

EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd

Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)

Physical Sweeper:

Simisear (M) @ Choice BandTrait: BlazeEVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 SpdJolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)- Fire Punch- Brick Break- Crunch- Acrobatics

Pretty much the same situation as Simisage, Needs Choice Band to be affective with damage, and Jolly gives him good speed.

OR

Special Sweeper:Simisear (M) @ Focus SashTrait: BlazeEVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 SpdTimid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)- Flamethrower- Nasty Plot- Hidden Power [Grass]- Focus Blast

Basically, I agree with Dt, but I wanted to put in my item nature, Ev’s Etc.

Simisear (M) @ Life OrbTrait: BlazeEVs: 252 Atk / 4 SAtk / 252 SpdNaive Nature (+Spd, -SDef)- Brick Break- Shadow Claw- Fire Punch- Overheat

Simisear (M) @ Fire GemTrait: GluttonyEVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 SpdLonely Nature (+Atk, -Def)- Overheat- Acrobatics- Rock Slide- Crunch

Fire gem and Overheat mesh well together. Giving a super high powered fire attack to launch off the battle can be of great use.

Acrobatics is substantially more powerful now that you’ve let go of your items.

Rock slide just promotes overall coverage. Crunch does the same.

This is one of my preferable short battle strategies.

Simisear @ Heat Rock / Scope LensAbility: BlazeEVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 SpeModest Nature- Sunny Day / Hone Claws (Increases power of Fire moves and lets you get Solar Beam off in one turn / Increase accuracy)- Fire Blast (Most powerful STAB Simisear has. BOOYAH!! (Sorry I had to (: ) Appreciates accuracy boost from Home Claws.)- Focus Blast (High powered coverage, also good with accuracy boost)- Solar Beam (Nice coverage move for Water / Ground, and great power)

Thanks for reading :)

Gen 7 ZUSimisear @ Salac BerryAbility: GluttonyEVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 SpeJolly Nature- Flare Blitz / Fire Punch- Knock Off- Rock Slide- Hone Claws

Flare Blitz is STAB. Fire Punch is an alternative if you want a fire STAB that doesn’t make you take recoil damage, but has less power. Knock Off removes items of opposing Pokemon. Rock Slide is for coverage. Hone Claws is to boost your attack.
