Status: Skeleton in progress.
[Overview]
<p>Crobat on serebii.net.</p>
[SET]
name: Nasty Bat
move 1: Nasty Plot
move 2: Heat Wave
move 3: Air Slash
move 4: Dark Pulse / HP Ground
item: Leftovers / Wise Glasses
ability: Inner Focus
nature: Timid
evs: 4HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
[SET COMMENTS]
<p>Inner Focus is chosen over infiltrator due to the usefulness of Heat Wave. Heat wave is essential for Ferrothorn, Scizor, and (without Sandstorm) Excadrill. Wise Glasses is for more damage, but Leftovers is recommended for survivability. The 252 EVs in speed allows it to outrun most of the OU and to speed tie Jolteon. It also out speeds Scarf Magnezone, as well as any scarf below 70 speed. The last spot depends on you. If you want your Psychic weakness covered choose Dark Pulse. Hidden Power Ground will take care of Ice,Rock, and Electric threats nicely. </p>
[ADDITIONAL COMMENTS]
<p>Nasty Bast is completely walled by Blissey. It takes at most 32-37% from a +6 Air Slash. Reuniclus is a good counter if Crobat hasn't set up 3 Nasty Plots yet.</p>
[SET]
name: Wall Breaker
move 1: Taunt
move 2: Super Fang
move 3: Toxic
move 4: Air Slash / Venoshock
item: Leftovers
ability: Infiltrator / Inner Focus
nature: Timid
evs: 252HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe
[SET COMMENTS]
<p>Leftovers help prevent being stalled as the wall is taken down. Infiltrator is recommended, but not necessary. This Crobat will tear down many of the uncommon walls in OU.</p>
[ADDITIONAL COMMENTS]
<p>The more common Pokemon that destroy this build include: Ferrothorn, Gliscor, Jellicent, and Forretress. Basically Pokemon that cannot be hit by Toxic/Venoshock or Super Fang. Also Pokemon that can take out Wall Breaker a lot faster than he can take them out:Politoed, Vaporeon, Lapras, and Reuniclus. </p>
[Other Options]
<p>I would really like to include a Haze move set, but I haven't done enough testing. If anyone has any constructive criticism or move sets I should try, please post them.</p>
[Checks and Counters]
<p>Just about every Electric/Psychic type in the OU OHKOes Crobat. Also, common sweepers such as Gengar and Dragonite cause an immediate switch. Priority destroys an important advantage: Speed.</p>
[Dream World]
<p>Infiltrator ignores Reflect, Light Screen, and Safeguard. Crobat's dream world ability is just about only suited as a "counter" for Pokemon that rely on dual screens or safeguard.</p>
Next planned revision is 5-21-11. (I've been really busy, Sorry.)
I'm working on a "good" haze move set currently.
Posted two move sets into the skeleton (5/9/11)
I have received permission from Bloo and Rising_Dusk to do this (4/28/11)
