Magnezone @ Leftovers/Chesto Berry

Calm Nature (+SpD, -Atk)

- Charge beam/Thunderbolt/Flash Cannon
The purpose of this set is simple. Use calm mind jirachi as setup fodder. With magnet pull, jirachi can do nothing but watch you set up in his face. Now, you might ask why this set uses psych up. The reason is simple. Magnezone can easily beat jirachi one on one. However, after jirachi dies he could be quite vulnerable to attacks. Using psych up alongside jirachi gives you a little extra bulk against whatever comes in next (which may very well be a special attacker). Magnezone resists all the moves jirachi commonly carries in the Sub-CM and wish CM set (except water pulse). I admit this is a gimmick set, as there are very few pokemon magnezone can freely set up on. But, if you know your opponent is using jirachi or a bulky pokemon with calm mind, this set can work quite well for you. Substitute makes you even harder to take down, and it's a fine choice since magnezone has few offensive moves anyways. Rest can be used with a chesto berry to get you back to full health after you're finished boosting, but you lose HP fire and continuous recovery. For the final move, it's really your personal preference. Charge beam is used if jirachi prefers to die instead of giving you free boosts. Be careful when you use psych up, because once your opponent knows you have it jirachi will most likely stop using calm mind. Thunderbolt is an option if you'd like more power. Finally, flash cannon is an option if tyranitar is an issue.
