That's pretty much older than time, not any less effective though. I favour a focus sash myself - it's got raw power, but it excels in just ruining other people's days by hitting through...

The whole point is you're calling it from another pokemon. Obviously this means you become reliant on luck somewhat, but it's there as an option alongside Close Combat that allows you to deal another...

It really depends on what you're trying to accomplish. Unless you're making use of screens, Forry's going to want all the hazards on hand because it has no other real purpose besides maybe spinning,...

I've used Copycat leads nicely before, expressly to exploit leads that lay down hazards. Their full moveset of hazards can be then copied with just your one move, making it quite an interesting...

HP Fire is a great choice. You don't have to rely on Focus Miss to take care of the large majority of things that will try their luck with Alakazam. Subs may curb the accuracy problem somewhat, but...

Substitute Dragonite is extremely irritating I have found, so any set utilising a Subs ability to add survivability to Dragonite is pretty decent. I might try that set out myself at some point.

Oh man, legality? Very Nice.

Time to bust out the old WoW - Foul Play - Swagger again set and create some rage.

Most people highlight Life Orb for Zam, but leave out Focus Sash. With a Sash, Alakazam can only be OHKOd by multihit moves and so its frailness is lessened somewhat.

Of course at that point the...

Do people invest in Speed much? I usually don't bother, but put enough in so as long as I have two Quiver Dances I can outspeed most of the metagame. What I save on speed I stick in bulk.

Night Daze = Absolutely Completely Zoroark
