SD ROSELIA
Roselia @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant / Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance

Watch as you dominate the PU ladder with this convenient ruthless win condition! Have no fear my friend no need to worry about this being another frail sweeper like some of them can. This little guy can easily get up SD's on walls and break them easily with the ability to replenish its health! Oh you wanted something to revenge kill a weakened Poliwrath? Special Roselia is the best man for the job!

Bow to me and my roselia. free mach punch rose

Roselia @ Choice Specs
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Leaf Storm
- Giga Drain
- Sludge Bomb
- Hidden Power [Fighting]

So the premises behind this set is since Roselia already has great bulk (special) and a strong base 100 SpA stat, you could catch a lot of thing off guard with a strong hit from Specs Roselia. Roselia's dual STAB make a good combination and along with HP Fighting to hit common Steel-types, this thing has almost perfect neutral coverage.

Calcs

252+ SpA Choice Specs Roselia Leaf Storm vs. 248 HP / 252+ SpD Avalugg: 327-385 (83.2 - 97.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
252+ SpA Choice Specs Roselia Hidden Power Fighting vs. 172 HP / 0 SpD Probopass: 252-300 (82.8 - 98.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
252+ SpA Choice Specs Roselia Hidden Power Fighting vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Eviolite Pawniard: 488-576 (211.2 - 249.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO
252+ SpA Choice Specs Roselia Sludge Bomb vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Ninetales: 202-238 (70.3 - 82.9%) -- 62.5% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock

Might want to replace the Lickilicky calc with something relevant because it's a 2hko without the special attack drop

thanks, thought the calc included the drop

Roselia @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 248 HP / 8 SpA / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Worry Seed
- Sludge Bomb
- Giga Drain
- Synthesis

What this set is attempting to do is neutralizing some dangerous threats' abilities such as Mightyena's Moxie, Ursaring's Guts or Quick Feet, as well as neutralizing special Rain and some Sun Sweepers. While this set does lose out on setting up Spikes or spreading Status, it can still be a huge help late game as well as preventing some dangerous threats from living up to their full potential.

 

[WakafLUKEaflame]

Roselia @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 160 HP / 252 SpA / 96 Spe
Modest Nature
- Spikes / Toxic Spikes
- Giga Drain
- Sludge Bomb
- Shadow Ball

Basically what this set strives to do is setup spikes for offensive teams, but ghost types tend to be a roadblock for Roselia. This set aims to change that by being able to nail Haunter and Misdreavus with Shadow Ball, ohko'ing Haunter easily while having a high chance of 2hko'ing offensive Missy. You also 2hko Gourgeist-Super, Beheeyem and Duosion with Shadow Ball which is nice. Basically you are giving up hitting Pawniard and Probopass with HP Fighting for taking on pesky ghosts that like to switch into Roselia. Not much else to say here but show some calcs.

Shadow Ball Calcs

252+ SpA Roselia Shadow Ball vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Haunter: 260-308 (112.5 - 133.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO

252+ SpA Roselia Shadow Ball vs. 120 HP / 0 SpD Eviolite Misdreavus: 124-146 (42.6 - 50.1%) -- 90.2% chance to 2HKO after Stealth Rock (Unfortunately, Roselia doesn't quite break through defensive Missy)

252+ SpA Roselia Shadow Ball vs. 248 HP / 8 SpD Gourgeist-Super: 202-238 (54.1 - 63.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery

252+ SpA Roselia Shadow Ball vs. 212 HP / 0 SpD Beheeyem: 168-198 (48.8 - 57.5%) -- 96.1% chance to 2HKO

252+ SpA Roselia Shadow Ball vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Eviolite Duosion: 160-190 (47.9 - 56.8%) -- 89.1% chance to 2HKO

Edit: With the departure of Haunter, this set may not be that good. RIP

[Kingler]

ngl a lot of these sets are flat-out gimmicky :(
shadow ball does seem cool tho :O, here's my own

Roselia @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 148 HP / 252 SpA / 108 Spe
Modest Nature
- Giga Drain
- Sludge Bomb
- Leech Seed
- Spikes

force switches w/ being able to check/counter simi/poli and have a semi reliable method of recovery, this also helps when paoired w/ poli or defensive costa as repeatedly switching into pawniard becomes less of a bitch. discourages setup in general and is a gud semi reliable recovery move :O

 

[Grim]

Roselia @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 160 HP / 252 SpA / 96 Spe
Modest Nature
- Giga Drain
- Sludge Bomb
- Spikes (Toxic Spikes don't work well with Paralysis)
- Stun Spore

This isn't exactly 'new' as I've seen multiple people use this already, but it's far from standard (I bet SD Roselia is more common). Not much to say here. Stun Spore cripples a lot of common switch ins to Roselia, such as Ninetales, Pawniard, and stallbreaker Haunter, and just forces Roselia to give up recovery or Sleep Powder, both which are not that important on offensive Roselia anyway. Just a nice utility move to cripple switch ins.

 

[2xTheTap]

Heidenröslein (Roselia) @ Eviolite
Ability: Poison Point
EVs: 248 HP / 100 Def / 160 SpD
Calm Nature
- Toxic Spikes
- Venoshock
- Giga Drain
- Synthesis

This set is just for fun, and uses Roselia's other ability, Poison Point. With a high possibility of your opponent being Poisoned due to either Toxic Spikes or Poison Point, Venoshock doubles its base power and hits with 130 BP. Without any SpA, Venoshock can OHKO a poisoned Jumpluff.

252 Atk Jumpluff Acrobatics (110 BP) vs. 248 HP / 100 Def Eviolite Roselia: 218-260 (71.9 - 85.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

0 SpA Roselia Sludge Bomb (Venoshock) vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Jumpluff: 290-344 (99.6 - 118.2%) -- 93.8% chance to OHKO

^(Sludge Bomb's Power is 130 here, because Venoshock doesn't exist in the calculator)


The 100 EVs in Defense let it survive a +2 LO Knock Off from Leafeon, and in return, Venoshock (if Leafeon is poisoned) also OHKOs.

+2 252 Atk Life Orb Leafeon Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 248 HP / 100 Def Eviolite Roselia: 256-302 (84.4 - 99.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

0 SpA Roselia Sludge Bomb (Venoshock) vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Leafeon: 398-470 (146.8 - 173.4%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Alternatively, you could run a 144 HP / 252 SpA / 112 Spe spread with Modest to capitalize on Venoshock's damage against Poisoned targets. If playing this Roselia seriously, I would combine this Roselia with other Pokemon who can learn Toxic, that way Flyers who normally dodge Toxic Spikes could be Poisoned as well. Similarly, I'd add Pokemon with strong Ground / Psychic attacks to remove grounded Poison types that would otherwise soak up Roselia's Toxic Spikes.
