Has this been mentioned yet?

Exeggutor @ Chesto Berry
Bold w/Harvest
252 HP/252 Def/4 SpA
Rest
Light Screen
Energy Ball
Psyshock

It's a personal set I use, and it managed to sweep an entire team, and all but 1 had Ice Beam, one was LO boosted. The reason I chose Chesto Berry over Lum was because if Exeggutor gets paralyzed that turn, Lum activates, and rests, the Harvest probably won't work, and I'll be paralyzed for the next turn, when I can ignore the paralysis and just sleep it off.
I'm assuming you're using this with Sun support?
 
@AuraSphere

ehh that set is good but i dont see it sweeping whole teams. you might be able to get away with it once or twice but after that im sure a smart person would catch on.
 
did any of you guys like my Audino set on the previous page? i just came up with it yesterday.

Don't Hurt Yourself!

Ability: Regenerator/Healer Item: Leftovers/Iron Ball

Simple Beam
Substitute
Swagger
Wish/Fling/Protect/Rest

EV's HP/252 Def/130 SpD/ 126 Sp/0

This set is actually a ton of fun to use and works really well if executed correctly. Its slim to none that someone would be expecting this setup on Audino. Its obviously supposed to be running on a Trickroom team but it works outside of it as well. The last move slot is up to personal preference because he might not stay around long enough to benefit from it. Audino can take down some of the best bulky pokemon with this setup...you just have to time it right.

The EV spread is self-explanatory.
 
It was confirmed that you need sun for harvest to be 100%, otherwise it's a 1/3 chance of harvest working.

Wasn't it 2/3rds?

I remember it was so pretty damn high that it took researchers a while to realize that it didn't restore it 100% in normal conditions.

It worked 2/3rd of the time for me. But oh well, I don't carry weather-inducing Pokemon on my team, it'd make my Cloud Nine Lickilicky mad :o
 
As already stated, Harvest only works 100% under Sun, so that's why I asked.

Read what I just posted, Lickilicky helps me get around weather, wether or not it is beneficial to my team also. Even with Sun, Lickilicky would cancel Harvest's effect of 100% working in Sun.

@The Analyst: Coincidence?
 
It's not like you NEED 100% if you're using Lum/Chesto-Rest. Unless you're using Rest every turn (in which case you're screwed anyway), you've got 2-3 turns at least for the berry to come back with the decent 66% chance, which is pretty reliable, IMO.

It showed up after I posted, and Cloude Nine doesn't get rid of weather effects, it just stops them while the Cloud Nine user is out, so unless you're playing in Doubles or Triples I don't see why you wouldn't use sun support...
 
apparently. i see why you like Lickilicky but Kangaskhan is far superior in my opinion.

Lickilicky helps stop weather teams I see a little too often with DW Ninetales and DW Politoed.

@Sajak I also don't have any intentions of merging part of a Sunny Day team with my regular team. I also have a Water-type on it also. I also don't feel like giving up a slot just to make one Pokemon work, even though its Harvest odds are good enough without Sun support.

Well all I had to work with was the set, and I thought it might benefit from sun support. Knowing more about your team though lets me understand why you don't so now I understand where you're coming from.

Just saying though, you could forgo Light Screen for Sunny Day and use Solarbeam. :P

I see, but that would slow his Special Defense, which I have not invested in. That is the move that let me survive a Politoed's Ice Beam with 1 HP, and a Kingdra's LO Ice Beam, when Exeggutor had half health left. I'll stick with Light Screen.

I was suggesting that as a joke, hence the ":P".

Don't you have to pray that, well, they don't hit you? Otherwise, they kinda sweep your whole team. And if they have a lum berry, then it's gg right there.

Not to mention they could switch out as well.

Also, shouldn't Def/Spdef EVs be divisible by 4...?

Yeah, it is a bit of a gamble but well worth it when its pulled off. I've had incredible success with this set so far and recommend it. Not many pokemon ignore swagger confusion well and thats why i have protect as an extra precaution. I think most people would rather stick it out than switch during this strategy in fear that it would give their overall team strategy away. You should try it sometime...i think youll be surprised how deadly it can be.

oh and they are divisible by 4....

130 divided by 4 gives you 2 left over

126 divided by 4 gives you 2 left over also
