I'm getting a Celebi from this guy in the Wifi forum. It has Bold nature, and good IVs, most importantly 31 HP. It also has Hidden Power fighting.
Celebi has so many outrageous moves I don't know what to give it. I have a choice of three grass moves or Psychic. I need to choose between Rest and Recover. I also need to decide if I want U-turn, or Baton Pass, or SD/CM/Sub or a status. Theres also Heal Bell and perish Song.
I kind of liked the idea of using Heal Bell because I don't have much for clerics (I have chimecho in UU) but Perish Song stops BP teams dead, and would also stop people's last pokemon no matter what. The 31 HP allows 101 HP subs, and interesting bonus. Then theres the problem with pursuit... I'll need to use a slot on BP or U-turn. Of course, I'll also need an attack so taunt doesn't ruin me.
Which moveset do you think is the best?
Celebi @ Leftovers/Big Root
252 HP // 252 DEF // 6 Sp. DEF
Substitute
Leech Seed
Baton Pass
Grass Knot/Energy Ball/Calm Mind
Taunt is blocked by Sub, correct? If not, forget the Calm Minds...
Celebi @ Leftovers
236 HP // 252 DEF // 22 Sp. DEF
Heal Bell
Perish Song
Recover
Grass Knot/Energy Ball
Team support Celebi... not much in the way of offense, but breaks up stall teams/baton passers...
Celebi @ Leftovers
236 HP // 252 DEF // 22 Sp. DEF
Heal Bell
Rest
Grass Knot/U-Turn
Leech Seed/Thunderwave
I dunno what this thingy does, but since it switches all the time to Heal Bell my team, I thought Rest, Leech Seed and stuff were OK.
Any other sets that come to mind? I could also pull of a CM pass in a set as well... but yeah. I've never used Celebi so I need advice.
