Lonely Nature

Manaphy @ Wacan Berry
Ability: Hydration
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Surf
- Ice Beam
- Tail Glow
- Energy ball
Reasons I use salamence: I run a mixed mence set to throw off steel type switch in's like ferrothorn, metagross, lucario, and skarmory
I just put the remaining 4 Ev's in special since I'm only using it for super effective hits.
Stone edge is to hit gyrados and togekiss
reasons I use manaphy: After one tail glow surf hits pretty much everything pretty hard except for a couple of assault vest Pokemon like goodra which is why I run ice beam with it the only problem is It doesn't hit some water types very hard like vaporeon and tentacruel so I run energy ball
But I also have raikou for bulky water types too
reasons I use Sableye: Sableye also throws people off since I can just not mega evolve it and set up with prankster calm mind and then mega evolve and dark pulse everything. If you can predict it sometimes you can get free rocks up too people also sometimes people just status you without thinking. I run will-o-wisp for physical threats. I use dark pulse instead of shadow ball since It doesn't effect normal types at all
reasons I use gengar: Gengar's moves are all just coverage shadow ball is the main move, sludge wave for fairys, dazziling gleam for dragons, and focus blast for dark and normal types
reasons I use raikou: Raikou's moves are also for coverage thunder bolt to hit anything that doesn't resist it, volt switch for a pivot, hp ice for ground types, and shadow ball to revenge kill scarfed Gengar or anything that resists electric
reasons I use scizor: a late game sweeper or when something is weak enough to be killed by bullet punch
bug bite for bulky grass types and superpower for chansey
Should I run choice specs on raikou? The only thing I'm scared of if I do is scarfed keldeo and scarfed gengar.
My play style is pretty offensively based but I'm willing to play defensively when need be.
