[VGC] Politoed Moveset - Support / Special Attacker (2 Options)
#2
Really nice write up! One less popular set from Joaquin Page's report on Nugget Bridge is a choice specs Politoed. It has some pretty nice offensive calcs:


204+ SpA Choice Specs Politoed Ice Beam vs. 236 HP / 128+ SpD Thundurus: 120-142 (65.2 - 77.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Sitrus Berry recovery

204+ SpA Choice Specs Politoed Hydro Pump vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Mega Kangaskhan in Rain: 172-204 (95 - 112.7%) -- 75% chance to OHKO

204+ SpA Choice Specs Politoed Ice Beam vs. 252 HP / 164 SpD Amoonguss: 124-148 (56.1 - 66.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

204+ SpA Choice Specs Politoed Hydro Pump vs. 92 HP / 0 SpD Sylveon in Rain: 138-163 (75.8 - 89.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

204+ SpA Choice Specs Politoed Scald vs. 92 HP / 0 SpD Sylveon in Rain: 102-121 (56 - 66.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

204+ SpA Choice Specs Politoed Scald vs. 252 HP / 76 SpD Aegislash-Shield in Rain: 84-100 (50.2 - 59.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

204+ SpA Choice Specs Politoed Hydro Pump vs. 252 HP / 76 SpD Aegislash-Shield in Rain: 115-136 (68.8 - 81.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

204+ SpA Choice Specs Politoed Hydro Pump vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Mega Gardevoir in Rain: 135-159 (93.7 - 110.4%) -- 62.5% chance to OHKO

204+ SpA Choice Specs Politoed Scald vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Mega Gardevoir in Rain: 99-117 (68.7 - 81.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

204+ SpA Choice Specs Politoed Scald vs. 252 HP / 20 SpD Mega Charizard Y in Rain: 218-260 (117.8 - 140.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO

204+ SpA Choice Specs Politoed Ice Beam vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Hydreigon: 138-164 (82.1 - 97.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

204+ SpA Choice Specs Politoed Focus Blast vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Hydreigon: 184-218 (109.5 - 129.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO

As you can see, it hits like a truck. The main reason it is so effective is because of the fact that people expect it to be a supportive set. The original set had Surf on it, but I'm not a huge fan of being locked in to a move which damages my allies, so I opted for Hydro Pump.
