<p>With its above average defenses and high Attack stat, Larvesta is a great bulky attacker. With its unique typing, it can easily wall most variants of Snover, as well as check dangerous Fighting-types such as Mienfoo and Scraggy. Morning Sun provides a semi-reliable form of recovery and mitigates the damage from Stealth Rock, should it be in play. Will-O-Wisp is a great move to cripple physical attackers, while causing residual damage from the burn. U-turn and Flare Blitz are great attacking options; the former is used for scouting switches, while the latter hits hard off of 18 attack.</p>

[ADDITIONAL COMMENTS]

<p>Rapid Spin support is needed to give Larvesta an easier time switching in. Users such as Staryu or Sandshrew have great synergy with Larvesta, whether it be typing, or support in the form of Stealth Rock. Toxic may be used over Flare Blitz or Will-O-Wisp, along with more defensive EVs. This is a more defensive approach, and allows Larvesta to beat bulkier Pokemon such as Slowpoke more easily; however, it fades away from the offensive prowess this set has.</p>
 
ok i have kind of a fetish for somewhat bulky pokemon with recovery of some sort, and i know this is a pretty good set from playing against it so

stamp (1/2)

i guess if other people reject it i'll have to actually test it out though...
 
Fighting resist, recovery, an actual Attack stat, Flame Body, and Will-O-Wisp? Yes please.

<p>With its above average defenses and a high Attack attack stat, Larvesta is a great bulky attacker. With its unique typing, it can easily wall / check most variants of Snover, (add comma) as well as dangerous Fighting-types such as Mienfoo and or Scraggy. Morning Sun provides a semi-reliable form of recovery, and while also letting Larvesta soften mitigates the damage from blow of Stealth Rock, should it they be in play up. Will-O-Wisp is a great move to cripple physical attackers, (add comma) while causing adding residual damage from the burn to both special attackers and walls. U-turn and Flare Blitz are great attacking options, (add comma) as the former is used for scouting switches and recoiless damage, while the latter hits hard off of 18 attack is very dangerous. </p>

<p>Rapid Spin support is needed to give Larvesta an easier time switching in. Users such as like Staryu or Sandshrew also have great synergy with Larvesta, (add comma) whether it be typing, (add comma) or support in the form of Stealth Rock. Toxic may be used over Flare Blitz or Will-O-Wisp, along with more defensive EVs. This is will have a more defensive approach, (add comma) and allows Larvesta to beat bulkier pokemon such as Slowpoke easier, although; however, (remove comma, add semicolon) it fades away from the offensive prowess this set has.</p>
 
Don't even need to look, I already know that's a good check

GP Approved (1/2)

What exactly does "however, it fades away from the offensive prowess this set has" mean?
