Which moveset for my clefable?
I spent a long time to breed a cleffa with 0 IVs in attack and perfect IVs in the others. I accidentally gave it a modest nature instead of the bold nature I was going for. While modest isn’t necessarily bad, I wanted:
Clefable@Kee berryAbility: Magic guard252 HP, 252 Def, 4 Sp.defBold natureIVs: 0 Atk- Minimise- Calm Mind- Moonlight- Moonblast
This one was actually a setup sweeper.
But that I’ve got modest, is this set now not good? Should I try something else such as Cosmic Power, Minimise, Moonlight, Stored Power? Please tell me if the first set is still usable, or should I opt for the second. If the second is better, please give a good moveset.Thanks in advance.

Since this is BSS, here goes:Softboiled is illegal with Unaware but it can be used with Magic Guard. It’s generally better due to more PP and consistent healing, compared to Moonlight’s 8 PP and reduced healing in sand, rain, or hail.
Here’s a moveset I would recommend:
This set maximises Clefable’s bulk against numerous threats in the tier while retaining its nature. It has enough defense to take strong hits. For example:
This set mostly loses to specially bulky Pokemon, Pokemon with access to moves that ignore Minimize boosts, Poison types, Fire types, and especially Heatran, who laughs off Moonblast and packs an immunity to Flamethrower, though it hates Thunder Wave. If you’re running Thunder Wave, Steel types can beat Clefable easily.
I hope I’ve helped!
