First time in the CAP project :D

Name: What's a moveset?

General Description: A Pokemon with great stats, but very limited movepool to work with. Perhaps it could have one or two niche moves that make it worth using.

Justification: Pokemon such as Breloom give us an interesting metagame. One niche is sometimes all it takes to become a supreior choice in OU. If one move was given that stands out above the rest, perhaps it could take care of a "mediocre" movepool.

Questions To Be Answered:

- Can one Niche move make up for a terrible moveset?
- What kind of niche can be filled in the current metagame?

Explanation: Spore for Breloom, Iron Head for Jirachi, these types of niches give some Pokemon good viability in the metagame. I think that a Pokemon excelling at one particular niche but with a limited moveset outside of that could become a very powerful asset for any team.
