But since they couldn't use Stealth Rocks, does that work?
Dunno, are there any DP pokemon with both Taunt and Encore? I would be up for testing it on shoddy. If someone would meet me on SU Server

Can we say greatest support pokemon ever? With the ability mischievous heart may just make this statement true. With the ability to outspeed any pokemon using regular attacks even when status with paralysis this still holds true. Not to mention Access to claw sharpen and nasty plot it can be a monsteruos sweeper to. To bad game freak didn't love us enough to give it baton pass
Alakazam learns both Taunt and Encore. I'm up for testing, but Smogon University is down. How about the CAP Server or something?
hopes of a monsterous sweeper was dashed when she got a crappy offensive movepool (I mentioned once or twice in the OP that she doesn't even get Dark special STAB outside of Hidden Power) and dual base 88 offensives. Hate to burst your bubble, but the greast support pokemon she is not. A fun pokemon with some neat combos that shouldn't be underrated? most certainly.
alright so I'll be on Shoddy whenever you are, just send me a PM and I'll explain how I think we should test this.
Yeah, seriously. It gets NP but no Dark Pulse? GF is really good at trolling its players.
Having both supporting moves and bulky is very important unless you can totally shut things down. Like I said, it's a fun pokemon that shouldn't be taken lightly, but it shouldn't be overrated either. I has it's roles. I made set for what it might be able to do, but Nasty Leopard isn't making it's way into OU play anytime soon. Leopard Spotted Anti-Lead, should it work the way I think it does, might, and Vengeful Kitty might, if only to break from Ditto Revenge Killers.I dont know I'd have to disagree with the ability to even outsides and drop status on another pokemon with still status itself put it up toward the top to say the least the ability to taunt a dd sub kingdra with +1 speed and no sub. I think that is worth something or to drop a t-wave on a pokemon who has an agility up how does that not earn it a top support pokemon spot? Just because it is not bulky means nothing. It even makes a beautiful weather setter. Access to torment and encore it just makes it crazy good I'm just saying this kitty cat deserves respect
No it really isn't tell that to lopunny, persian, and hell butterfree runs status as well so that's not true a pokemon doesn't need bulk to be a good status pokemon
Lopunny, Persian, and Butterfree are also NU pokemon so that really isn't a testament to their support capabilities.

The fact that they are NU doesn't make a difference they are still used on high level at times. Just like a quagsire is used often in ubers so the fact that a lot of people don't use them is irrelevant because nu means they don't get used a lot not that they aren't good. Also jumpluff is a great support pokemon not to mention roserade can be. don't try and debate with me if you can't make a good point it just waste both of our time. Lol:)
After learning about Mischevious Heart and looking over Leperadusu's movepool, one set stood out in my mind. A set that would make no sense on anything else. Oh, yes, it remedies his/her lack of Dark Pulse. Of course, if Mischevious Heart doesn't work the way we think it does, then it's almost useless.
Boosted Assist
Leperadusu w/ Leftovers + Mischevious Heart
Brave/Quiet nature. 252 Atk, 252 Sp Atk, 6 HP
-Substitute
-Nasty Plot
-Claw Sharpen
-Assist
With a nature that gives a pokemon boosted priority on it's status moves, this set is actually possible. Set up a sub, then boost up with Nasty Plots and Claw Sharpens. If it works out perfectly, your opponent could have a +6 Atk, +6 Sp Atk, +6 accuracy and behind a substitute (which protects her from enemy priority moves) Leperadusu to face. Then you use Assist which, may I remind you, will always go first, selecting a move from any of your pokemon. With +6 accuracy, pulling something like DynamicPunch, Zap Cannon or Purgatory out of the hat could HURT. Obviously, it would be a good idea to keep moves such as Explosion and Healing wish off the same team as this guy. If I'm not incorrect, this set only has one solid counter- Taunt. So, all-in-all, this is a late-game sweeper with nothing but status moves. :P
I can't even see what typing this thing has. Has this been posted because I can't get onto serebii right now.
On the Nasty Plot set, I'd suggest Dark Pulse over Shadow Ball.
It hits all the Pokemon that Ghost/Fighting does, except two, and it gives him STAB.
