Adamant Nature
- Double-Edge
- Knock Off
- Drain Punch / Focus Punch / Surf
- Healing Wish
This set is actually godly trust me. The main idea around this was to have an offensive Healing Wish user and replicate the old wallbreaker Clefable from BW RU that could hit hard thanks to high powered stab and great coverage and Audino is not different. Knock Off is broken as hell and with that Audino is able to beat a multitude of Pokémon with LO Double Edge (which is as strong as AV Bouffalant Return) such as Clefairy, SpDef Vullaby, Duosion, and much more which are lured and effortlessly killed. Stuff like Floatzel/Zebstrika/Raichu/Mr. Mime also die and nothing offensive can really switch into it and live to tell the tale. The coverage move is used to beat specific targets for Audino. Drain Punch beats Probopass and Pawniard which is AMAZING to say the least especially if you need to lure them, Focus Punch is a manlier version of Drain Punch and Surf is for Golem only pretty much (use Naughty). Healing Wish is godly for momentum on offense and is good in an endless number of situations although running Thunder Wave or Encore (or additional coverage) also works there.
In the end hitting hard as fuck surprisingly, having perfect coverage, regenerator, and healing wish make up for a perfectly good Pokemon and vote for it
Assault Vest 4 Atks Audino a.k.a. AV attacking Blob
Audino @ Assault Vest
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 248 HP / 8 SpA / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Dazzling Gleam
- Grass Knot
- Fire Blast
This set is focused on the utility granted by the ability Regenerator + the item Assault Vest with full EVs investment on the special side to emulate Blissey's capabilities as much as possible. I was torn if choosing Audinite or Assault Vest but I decided to run the latter because with the Mega evolution it loses Regenerator which is very bad considering it gains no ability in single battles.
Not only that, but you run even 4 attacks to defeat monsters which are weak to them thanks to Electric, Fairy, Grass and Fire coverage.

Audino @ Assault Vest
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Power-Up Punch
- Drain Punch
- Return
- Knock Off
This is the definition of a tank. When your opponent will see Audino, he'll be like "yay, free setup!" and will send out his Raichu or Pawniard or some setup mon. However, you'll do PuP on the switch and thanks to Audino's high bulk, you can easily set up twice or three times, even if they doesn't switch out. Then you can attack with Return and heal with Drain Punch. Knock Off is for Ghosts and is evil.
248 HP EVs maximises Audino's overall bulk and are here to take less damage on Spikes. 252 Defense Evs could be used, however you'll take more on the special side, even with AV. 8 Spe EVs are here to outspeed opposing Audinos.

Pretty sure Audino gets Grass Knot, which not only removes the need to run Naughty but even does more to Relicanth than Drain Punch does.
