What is a good (OU) Special Attacker?

I thinking of using Gardevoir but I don’t think it will work.

Quiver Danceis perfect for a Special Sweeper, increased Speed, Special Attack and Special Defense means you can sweep for faster, longer and more powerful. With a couple of Quiver Dance all you need to do is spamBug BuzzorFiery Dance. If you do become low on health you canRoostto gain back health in large chunks.

Latios @ Choice Specs/ Life OrbAbility: LevitateEVs: 252 Sp. Atk, 252 Speed, 4 HPNature: Timid- Psyshock- HP Fire- Dragon Pulse/ Draco Meteor- Surf/ Roost

Roost for Life Orb, Surf for Specs. HP Fire is there to deal with Scizor and Ferrothorn, Psyshock to deal with Blissey.

Keldeo @ Choice SpecsAbility: JustifiedEVs: 252 Sp. Atk, 252 SpeedNature: Timid- Surf- Secret Sword- HP Ghost- Icy Wind

Spec’d Keldeo is really great. It can OHKO Gliscor, Landorus-T and Salamence with one Icy Wind. Not so lucky with Dragonite though. Surf and Secret Sword for STAB, HP Ghost for Jellicent and Celebi. Surf > Hydro Pump simply for accuracy.

Wielding the power of lost wandering souls, it is only normal that Gengar is a feared presence in OU. Once it’s decides to reveal itself, things get broken and not only materialistic objects.Focus Blastis that specific move that cuts the lifespan of many Pokemon in the OU tier very short. Especially if you can’t resist it . There is nothing such as a living Tyranitar after one Focus Blast. A little STAB there and a little there…that is why we haveShadow Ball. Anything that doesn’t resist or is faster then Gengar will see the eternal light once struck by Shadow Ball. If you didn’t die the first time…you will the second.Thunderboltis just for a little coverage that will be knocking a lot of Pokemon out of the sky and perhaps evaporate all aquatic beings. Everything that doesn’t resist or is immune to electric type attacks will be taking some noticeable damage. That said, not many Pokemon can switch into a rampaging Gengar. Dragons are fun to use but a pain to face, so is Landorus.Hidden Power Icethose sorrymonz. Coupled with Gengar’s beautiful special attack and that nice base power after a Choice Specs boost, Gengar is already playing the role of the yet to come fairies in making life sore for Dragon types.

It’s looks is not the only scary thing about Hydreigon but that special attack is a monstrosity. With a decent speed stat and a choice scarf slapped on to it, Hydreigon can be an incredibly dangerous Pokemon to face. With a STABDraco Meteormany Pokemon will fall. KOing every dragon in OU, it is only normal that Hydreigon is a top OU threat. A Dragon that enjoys sun like no other…and for a good reason.Fire Blastwill obliterate every unresisting Pokemon as well as cut Scizor’s lifespan really short. Most Steel, bug and grass types will soon be silenced when every head starts to fire of some powerful fiery blasts.Surfis just for some coverage and will enable it to become a threat in Rain as well as a Rain boosted surf will hurt…..a lot as well as make quick work of Landorus-T.Focus Blastis just a move you must have when you have access to it. That incredible power and it’s ability to cover so many threatening types will bring you far, especially when a Pokemon such as Hydreigon is firing it of

Reuniclus is one extremely powerful special attacker. Though it is a rare sight in OU nowadays, once it appears, you know how it got into the OU tier for it’s offensive and defensive presence are stunning.Trick Roomis just to switch the luck over to your side as it will now be fast enough to outspeed almost everything in the OU tier and hit with incredibly powerful moves.Psychicis not often seen again in OU since Psyshock came. Though don’t let psyshock push Psychic aside as it will enable you to hit physical walls interestingly hard. Gliscor will not be able to stall Reuniclus out of the Twisted Dimensions as easy as it could. You had to see this coming ,Focus Blastis that specific move that will grant you some coverage against the dangerous Dark Types and specifically the omnipresent Tyranitar that is an incredible threat to Reuniclus.Hidden Power Fireis just for that extra bit of coverage and also to end Scizor and Ferrothorn’s reign. And as much as I hate to say, Jirachi without a Calm Mind boost will eventually fall to Hidden Power Fire

This guy..

One weakness, very good bulk and extremely hard hitting with specs. Who could ask for more? it’s speed is a little middling, but it still gets a lot of serious KO’s where it counts. And Volt switch is one of the most powerful scouts going coming off this guys STAB. Water and Electric STAB together are extremely effective, using HP Ice to take out grass and dragon types. It fears very little Bar ceblibe, and with Thunderbolt as an epic secondary STAB nothing else likes to switch in for fear of ground teams being OHKO’d by pump or anything else KO’d by Hp Ice or Thunderbolt. Quiet the little so-and-so this one..

Alakazaam@Focus SashTimid NatureAbility: Magic GuardEVs: 4 hp 252 sp atk 252 spd- Psychic/Psyshock- Signal Beam/Shadow Ball- Focus Blast- Hidden Power Fire/Hidden Power Ice

Psyshock is useful for bypassing blissey and other special walls, with psychic being more powerful. Focus Blast covers dark and steel, with shadow ball and signal beam providing nice psychic coverage. HP Fire is nice for fighting neutral steel types, while HP Ice hits quite a few Pokemon for se damage.

Jolteon@Life Orb/Choice SpecsTimid NatureAbility: Volt AbsorbEVs: 4 hp 252 sp atk 252 spd- Thunderbolt/Thunder- HIdden Power Grass/Hidden Power Ice- Shadow Ball/Signal Beam- Volt Switch

Use thunder if on a rain team, but otherwise use thunderbolt. HP Grass and Ice provide ground coverage, though unless one fears gastrodon HP Ice is preferred. Shadow Ball and signal beam provide additional coverage, with signal beam being notable for its uses against celebi, and volt switch facilitates switching.

Fast Special Alakazam

Item: AlakaziteTimid NatureAbility: Magic Guard (Trace after mega evolving)EV’s: 252 SpA / 252 Spe / 4 SpDMoveset~ Psychic (STAB)~ Shadow Ball~ Focus Blast~ Energy Ball

The thing that makes Alakazam so good, both mega and regular, is an outstanding speed and special attack stat. (Mega alakazam is actually the fastest base speed stat in OU) But perhaps the fun part is the abilities.In reality, You only really need to mega evolve when it’s absolutely needed to go first, grab an ability or make a move very powerful to remove something immediately. Magic guard protects from damaging entry hazards, damaging status and leech seed. (But it’s very fun to take abilities like beast boost, wonder guard etc…)
