What's with pokebase and lc movesets in the past 3 days

Answer 1

Tyrogue @ Eviolite
Ability: Steadfast
EVs: 232 Attack / 232 HP / 44 Spe
Adamant Nature
-Bullet Punch
-Rock Slide
-Thief
-Brick Break / High Jump Kick if you want to risk it

The top three are for coverage, as well as Rock Slide using potential Steadfast if they flinch from it, as well as Brick Break being great STAB for it. I did Bulldoze as it's pretty strong, and can hit multiple targets if it's a double battle in LC.

You can't get Bullet Punch since it's an Egg Move
The only Pokémon on the Tyrogue evolutionary line is Hitmonchan, since you can't get an egg by breeding two male Pokémon it's impossible to get Bullet Punch on Tyrogue.

I thought steadfast activates when you flinch. Am I wrong?

---

"Steadfast increases the user's Speed stat by one stage when flinched."

---

Oh, woops, I did it again, sorry, also, I didn't know that bit about the Egg Moves, I'll change bullet punch to something else.

---

Fixed it, sorry, I'm still really new to the whole moveset questions thing.

Why Brick Break when High Jump Kick is better?

---

Actually it is possible to get Bullet Punch on Tyrogue.
You can breed Hitmonchan with Bullet Punch and Ditto, the result will be a Tyrogue with Bullet Punch.

---

To answer PK, if I miss HJK, I'll die, so Brick Break is better, as for Emerald Sceptile, I assumed you couldn't count ditto breeding, but if you do count Ditto breeding, then I'll change it back to Bullet Punch.

Oh, so your one of those I don't want no risk people. Ok, I get it.
