I can see this guy doing fairly well in the lower tiers.
@ Assault Vest
Ability: Sticky Hold
252 HP / 252 Atk / 4SDef
Adamant Nature
- Gunk Shot
- Fire Punch / Brick Break
- Ice Punch / Brick Break
- Shadow Sneak
Good typing, base 105 Atk and HP coupled with 100 SDef makes Muk a decent user of Assault Vest. Sticky Hold is always welcomed to fight the most recent Knock Off fetish.
The moves are easy to explain: Gunk Shot is an extremely powerful STAB (and more accurate than never!), the elementar punches are for obvious coverage issues while Shadow Sneak gives it priority to finish off weakened opponents.
252 SpA Life Orb Thundurus-T Thunderbolt vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Assault Vest Muk: 138-164 (33.3 - 39.6%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
252+ Atk Muk Gunk Shot vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Thundurus-T: 249-294 (83 - 98%) -- guaranteed 2HKO (ko's next turn with Shadow Sneak)
252 SpA Mega Gardevoir Psychic vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Assault Vest Muk: 236-278 (57 - 67.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
