Spiritomb is very good at countering psychics and ghosts. I would go with careful for this purpose, especially since you have Will-O-Wisp for punishing physical sweepers who come in and try to set up on you. Remember not to burn Heracross, guts Machamp, or guts Hariyama though. Using Hypnosis as your initial status move would be a good idea if you suspect one of these is waiting to switch in on Spiritomb.

Where is the latest point I can soft reset to get a different Cresslia? Right before I tap A infront of it on New moon island?
Correct. After it runs away, you have to chase it down, checks its IVs, then reset.
first of all, i answered this for you already, but i'll do it again;
Modest
252 HP / 172 SpAtk / 84 SpDef
although smogon'ers prefer a Calm nature, most likely because with the flinching set, u can afford 2 or even 3HKO's what with para-flinch
the 84 SpDef EV's hit 287 SpDef, and the 172 SpAtk EV's hit 350 SpAtk, but i dont know what relevance they are
Brave Bird is the better option because its superior base power allows it to kill Gyarados and such more easily.
The pAC checks legendaries and any other caught pokemon; I've used it many times.
I just hatched a Misdreavus:
Timid
Levitate
HP: 4
Atk: Who cares
Defense: 31
Special Attack: 31
Special Defense: 31
Speed: 31
Should I go ahead and use it, or keep trying for one with a better HP IV? It's got 31 in each important stat besides HP... it will be a calm minder with Shadow Ball/Thunderbolt/4th move I haven't decided yet...

HOLY CRAP.
You could replace the current parent with that, and breed with something that has 31 HP< or you could keep it. Lucky hatch, man!
i know that, I wasnt asking that at all. I mean, how do i get 404 HP from Base 100 HP stat, assuming 31 IV and 252 EVs
Level it to lv100? A base 100HP pokemon will have 404 HP if it has 31 IV and 252 HP.
You pretty much answered your own question. You need 31 IV and 252 EVs in hp
beat to it :(
In that case
(((((base stat * 2 ) + 10 ) + IV ) + EVs/4 ) + level )
This only works for HP, the other stats have another formuala.
The base stat would be 100, IV is 31, and the EVs/4 63. I think this was from the Damage Formula thread, but I forget.
SR or not?
Cresselia Relaxed
31/16-17/30-31/2-3/24-25/4-5
Cresselia Relaxed

name: Choice Band
move 1: Switcheroo
move 2: Return
move 3: Ice Punch
move 4: Focus Punch / Sky Uppercut
item: Choice Band
ability: Cute Charm
nature: Jolly
evs: 26HP / 252ATK / 232 SPD
IS this set usable in Standard? I really like the concept of an offensive lopunny and it has the speed to pull this set off. Would it work though?
