Almost Any Ability

This is the lead set I'm using right now: Deoxys-Speed @ Choice Scarf Ability: No Guard Timid Nature - Sing - Fissure - Moonblast - Trick This is intended to be an anti-wonder guard set. I notice that Deoxys-S tends to lure out wonder guard, and that few w/ wonder guard enjoy choice scarf (does...

Interestingly enough, using parting shot on magic bounce forces the magic bouncer out even if they have ingrain, so if people know or try that, you'd lose your boosts. Also, I am curious to know why you use Meloetta as a mold breaker. Normal doesn't do much for it that (ghost immunity?) that...
