-Howl
-Crunch
-Protect
-Fire Fang
Mightyena was obviously designed for Ubers. After Intimidate, your moves do about one third of my health at max. It only takes one Howl for me to consistantly do over 50% to you. Protect is when I need HP.

@Pneuma's Kangaskhan (which isn't really a Spiritomb counter because it gets hit hard by HP Fighting):
Skarmory@Leftovers
Impish 252 HP / 96 Atk / 156 Def / 8 Spd
~Brave Bird
~Spikes
~Whirlwind
~Roost
Skarmory doesn't take very much from any of Kangaskhan's attacks due to resistance to Return and Sucker Punch and high Defense. It proceeds to gradually bludgeon Kanga to death with Brave Bird.
