Hi QC, I've been playing around with Alakazam in OU lately and this set has been working quite well. I don't know if anyone has reserved this, but I haven't found anything to suggest that it has. I've only used this set at the moment, and haven't tested anything else yet, but I might test out Specs or Lead Kazam later.

[Overview]
[SET]
name: Substitute + 3 Attacks
move 1: Substitute
move 2: Psychic
move 3: Focus Blast
move 4: Hidden Power Fire / Signal Beam
item: Life Orb / Leftovers
ability: Inner Focus
nature: Timid
evs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Why this set deserves to be on-site:
- Outspeeds the common Choice Scarf Tyranitar and OHKOs with Focus Blast (If it hits)
- Substitute allows it to dodge Bullet Punch, Psychic is there for STAB (Hits non-resisters very hard), Focus Blast and 4th move is for coverage. HP Fire is preferred, but Signal Beam can be used to hit Starmie, I guess.
- Can force out quite a few of Pokemon (Like Infernape, Gengar, Machamp) and set up a Substitute.
- Has a reasonable chance to 2HKO 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe Bold Blissey with Focus Blast after SR and a layer of Spikes.
Additional Comments:
- Entry hazards are very helpful for Alakazam to get his 2HKOs and OHKOs
- Life Orb is preferred, even with Sandstorm, since Alakazam is so powerful and frail it doesn't matter anyway
Teammates and Counters:
- Magnezone to remove Scizor, probably the biggest threat. Magnezone can also remove stuff like Scarf Jirachi.
- Gyarados and Suicune can also set up on Bullet Punches
- Skarm and Forretress can setup Spikes on Choiced Bullet Punches
- Lucario and Infernape scare away Blissey
- Scizor is the biggest threat, can catch Alakazam without a Sub and Bullet Punch/Pursuit mindgames with Alakazam. Calm Blissey walls this set. Weavile (Although uncommon) is a death sentence for non-Subbed Alakazams.
