Answer 1

Gen 9 Monotype Choiced Attacker (Ghost/Fairy)

Flutter Mane @ Choice Specs / Choice Scarf
Ability: Protosynthesis
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Shadow Ball
- Moonblast
- Thunderbolt
- Mystical Fire

A Choiced Attacker set for Flutter Mane. Booster Energy is banned from Monotype, so Flutter Mane utilizes Choice items in the format. Shadow Ball is used for Ghost STAB and is useful against opposing Ghost teams due to how good the type is. Moonblast is used for Fairy STAB, which is useful alongside Shadow Ball since you threaten most Dark-types with Moonblast. Thunderbolt is useful against Water-types such as Dondozo and Iron Bundle, as well as Pokemon such as Corviknight. Mystical Fire is used for Steel-types such as Kingambit, Scizor, and Tinkaton. Choice Specs is used to give Flutter Mane extra power, while Choice Scarf is used as a tradeoff from having extra power to extra speed.

Answer 2

Gen 9 Monotype Substitute + Calm Mind (Ghost/Fairy)

Flutter Mane @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Protosynthesis
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Substitute
- Calm Mind
- Moonblast
- Shadow Ball

A Substitute + Calm Mind set for Flutter Mane in Gen 9 Monotype. Substitute allows you take advantage of passive Pokemon and helps with priority moves such as Sucker Punch, as you can create Sucker Punch mindgames with Substitute. Calm Mind boosts your Special Attack and Special Defense, which can allow you to snowball through teams late game. Moonblast and Shadow Ball are used as the attacking moves because not only are they STAB, but the combination of the two moves is really good. Heavy-Duty Boots is used as the item because hazards are everywhere, and this set appreciates not having to take chip damage from Stealth Rock and Spikes.

Answer 3

Bad hair day (Flutter Mane) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Moonblast
- Calm Mind
- Mystical Fire
- Shadow Ball

It is just a fantastic Pokémon and has great synergy with almost every Pokémon on your team.
That is all I have.

Answer 4

Gen 9 OU singles strong, bulky, yet speedy set (for both doubles and singles)
Item: Booster Energy
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Fire (chose it because Fire is good against Flutter Manes Steel weakness, and since it’s not a Ghost Type any more, it can use its STAB Shadow Ball to hit Ghost types)
EVs: 170 SpA, 169 SpD, 171 Spe
Nature: Timid (lowers Atk, boosts Spe)
- Shadow Ball
- Moonblast
- Mystical Fire
- Energy Ball

Shadow Ball and Moonblast are STAB. Mystical Fire is for its Fire Tera Type. Energy Ball is to handle its Rock, Ground and Water weaknesses once Terastalized.

Comments

Flutter Mane is banned from OU.

Answer 5

Gen 9 AG Calm Mind Sun Sweeper

Flutter Mane @ Life Orb
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Fire
EVs: 252 SpA / 132 SpD / 124 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Moonblast
- Shadow Ball
- Mystical Fire
- Calm Mind

Pretty average moveset, Moonblast and Shadow Ball for STAB, Mystical Fire for coverage, CM for boosts, Life Orb to not be Choiced. The EVs & Timid maximize SpA while guaranteeing a Speed boost under Sun with Protosynthesis, and the rest are dumped in SpD. Tera Fire Mystical Fire under Sun is also a force to be reckoned with. Koraidon is necessary to pull off, and also forms a great core with Flutter Mane.

Answer 6

Gen 9 Ubers Wallbreaker

Flutter Mane @ Life Orb
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Moonblast
- Shadow Ball
- Thunderbolt
- Calm Mind

A pretty self-explanatory set. Moonblast & Shadow Ball for STAB, Thunderbolt for coverage, Calm Mind to try and force a Koraidon Tera Fire. EVs to speed tie with opposing FM, Chien-Pao, and the twin 'Dons.

• 252 SpA Life Orb Flutter Mane Moonblast vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Miraidon: 369-437 (108.2 - 128.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO
• 252 SpA Life Orb Flutter Mane Thunderbolt vs. 252 HP / 64 SpD Toxapex: 187-221 (61.5 - 72.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
• 252 SpA Life Orb Flutter Mane Shadow Ball vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Flutter Mane: 268-320 (106.7 - 127.4%) -- guaranteed OHKO
• 252 SpA Life Orb Flutter Mane Moonblast vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Vessel of Ruin Ting-Lu: 260-307 (50.5 - 59.7%) -- 81.3% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery

Answer 7

Protosynthesis sweeper

(It's Flutter Mane, Flutter Mane guys :/)

This is my first post BTW
Edgy Misdreavus(Flutter Mane)Booster Capsule
Ability:Protosynthesis
EVs:252 SpA, 4 SpD, 252 Spe
Modest Nature
-Charge Beam
-Fake Tears
-Hex
-Mystical Fire
Booster Capsule makes it a speed demon and a special sweeper. Charge Beam and Fake tears makes it even more of a special sweeper. Hex is useful if one of your other Pokémon manages to inflicts a status condition crippling them even more.Mystical Fire is coverage against Steel types and is boosted if you go with Sunny Day Protosynthesis instead of booster capsule
