<p>Scarf Mismagius plays an extraordinary niche in the Underused metagame. Once again, its Spikes immunity really helps, as it will be switching in often to deliver surgical strikes onto the opponent. With a nice 105 Base Speed, it ties with Scarfed Pokemon such as Mienshao and Zoroark, and can possibly get a surprise KO on both of them with the fitting move. It is important to note that Choice Scarf Mismagius isn't a sweeper, but instead a utility Choice Scarf user, because of its relatively lower damage output. Shadow Ball is obviously going to be it's main move for attacking the opponent. Trick will be its main weapon, as it can cripple big walls like Suicune, Umbreon and Snorlax, all of which are likely counters to Mismagius—especially the SubCM set. By Tricking a Choice Scarf onto a support Pokemon, they will be locked into one move for the remainder of the match, making them predictable and forcing them to switch out continuously to use the other moves in their arsenal. Hidden Power Fighting is great for hitting the Dark types that would normally trap it, such as Krookodile and Weavile. It is also able to revenge kill the likes of Zoroark and Krookodile. Destiny Bond is a great move that can kill an opponent if that opponent KOs Mismagius on the same turn. Coupled with Mismagius' awesome Speed, this allows her to quickly take down an unsuspecting opponent free-of-charge, and even encourages the tactical sacking of Mismagius. This can be useful to take down pesky opponents that Mismagius cannot defeat in one shot, for example Umbreon, Snorlax, Zapdos, and more.</p>

<p>The spread is straight forward; to invest as much speed and power as possible. Timid is a great nature for speed tieing with Positive natured Base 105 Choice Scarfers, and can function just as well without the Scarf. However, a Modest nature can grant an important power boost, especially the valuable 2HKO on Blastoise with Thunderbolt, the guaranteed OHKO on Chandelure with Shadow Ball, and the chance to OHKO Cofagrigus after Stealth Rocks. Destiny Bond and Hidden Power Fighting will be your best choice for this set, as it gives you the fabulous Ghost+Fighting offensive synergy and an almost guaranteed kill on at least one Pokemon. Destiny Bond will also be your best friend when facing Choice Band Snorlax and other Pursuit trappers. Thunderbolt is an option if you need to remove to bulky Water-types or Flying-types, such as Suicune or Crobat, but it will not be a guaranteed OHKO.</p>
<p>Pokemon like Cobalion and Snorlax are very good defensive partners for ScarfMagius, as both of them appreciate a Ghost-type that is immune to Fighting moves, while they can help to defeat the Special Walls that Mismagius hates. Mienshao is a great offensive partner for Mismagius, as Mismagius can Trick a Choice Scarf to Pokemons like Registeel and Umbreon to cripple them and prevent them from using Protect on a High Jump Kick. Meanwhile, Mienshao can easily defeat Mismagius' checks such as Darmanitan, Zoroark and Snorlax. Other powerful special attackers, such as Chandelure and Victini, make for great partners with Mismagius as well, as they can take advantage of the special walls that Mismagius cripples.</p>
Note: If this gets on-site, please remove "Scarf Mismagius" from OO on the main set. Thanks!
