Serperior (QC 3/3)

n_n, this is what I get for taking a test and C&Cing at the same time.
Change the SubCM set to CM and slash Taunt with Substitute.
Mention in the CM set that Substitute is useful for "scouting" and lowering Serperior's HP to Overgrow level.
Mention that Taunt helps prevent Pokemon from using Roar to phaze Serperior away, using Toxic, recovering, setting up, yada yada.
I'd switch around the slash of Life Orb and Leftovers. Life Orb really helps with the final damage output and Serperior can always Giga Drain HP back. It's also the superior item if you're using Taunt > Substitute.
Also put Taunt in dual screens somewhere.
After those changes, QC Approve 1/3

On the Glare set, is Timid with 112 speed EVs really the best spread? That puts you at 319 Speed, which he can reach with a Modest nature or a Bold nature or whatever. I don't know much about EVing but it seems counterproductive to use a Speed-boosting nature and invest so little in Speed.
ALRIGHT ALRIGHT DON'T GET YOUR PANTIES IN A BUNCH DJANGO.
Edit: Also, fizz. The EV's are like that because the set needs to outspeed haunter and with a neutral nature in speed the investment is so high that the defense investment and nature is actually lower than the set I have listed. it's lower by 6 points actually.
