Set Name: Wannabe Lileep
Numel@Oran berry/Passho Berry/Chesto berry
Simple, Bold/Calm
A few different spreads could be used, not sure which would be the best. Maybe 196 HP/196 Def/76 SDef?
Amnesia/Stockpile/Sleep talk
Stockpile/Howl
Rest
Lava Plume/Toxic/Rock slide
This set functions similarly to Lileep's stockpile set, except that Numel has simple, but no recovery move besides rest. The idea is simple (pun intended). Switch in on something that can't harm Numel very much, boost special defence greatly with Amnesia, or both defences with stockpile, depending on what attacks your opponent's pokemon uses. When the blows start to take their toll, rest off the damage and keep boosting. Numel is unique in being the only pokemon that can get both defences to +6 with stockpile because of simple. After boosting your defences to +6, either boost your attack with howl and plough through your opponent's team with rock slide, or toxic your opponents pokemon and watch them die slowly. Lava plume, with it's burn rate, can be used so you're not taunt fodder. Defense curl is not used on this set because stockpile is better in every way on numel. If you go the howl route, use stockpile/rest/rockslide alongside it. If you go with lava plume or toxic, use stockpile and amnesia/sleep talk alongside.
Edit: Ninja'd.
The differences between this set and the one above are that his set is more of a late game sweeper, meant for finishing off the opponents team after it's counters have been removed.
