In Milotic's case, you shouldn't be using Rest because it gets Recover.
But I really don't like Sleep Talk at all. It's RNG-dependant on winning you the game, it takes up 2 move slots, and there are typically better ways to use the bulky Pokemon that you would see use a Rest Talk set. And then there's gambling on when you will wake up and need to stop clicking Sleep Talk.
Also, absolutely do not use it in doubles. Wall-y Pokemon aren't as good there as they are in singles due to double-targeting and the quick nature of the format. If you absolutely have to use Sleep Talk...save it for Singles.
