Discuss?
 
I'll try to salvage this subpar discussion topic:

Standard CMer:

Lunatone @ leftovers
Timid/Modest/Bold
Calm Mind
Ice Beam
Psychic
Hypnosis

Ice Beam is for Altaria (which is basically the only Dragon/Flying you'll be seeing in UU) and other type coverage, Psychic for STAB, and Hypnosis to sleep your other counters. It's too bad this thing doesn't have any form of recovery but rest.
 
Lunatone is an excellent Baton Passer IMO. It can Baton Pass Speed (In the Way of Rock Polish), Special Attack (Calm Mind and or Charge Beam), and Defenses (Cosmic Power) so in that respect Lunatone makes a versitile Baton Passer to fit whatever your team might require. Its a pretty sturdy Special Attacker in its ownright, and is an easy switch into any choice banded or non Earthquakes (not from Mold Breaker Pinsir or Rampardos obviously) and it forces Choice Band Earthquakers to Switch and the like.
 
I wish Hypnosis/Baton Pass was viable, it would make it a bit more potent then. Still, it's a pretty good UU pokemon, Charge Beam and Grass Knot are certainly great additions to it's artillery.
 
I love Lunatone, one of the few usable 3rd gen Pokemon that doesn't evolve.

Lunatone @ Leftovers
Modest Nature
88 spd/252 sp. atk/68 Hp/100 defense

Rock Polish
Grass Knot/Ice Beam
Hypnosis
Psychic

Grass Knot in UU, Ice Beam for OU.
Defense EVs because her base def sucks.
 
Lunatone makes a really cool Trick Roomer, and really benefits from Sandstorm making him a cool choice to go on a Ttar team, and his Trick Room makes Ttar (and a probable Rhyperior since this is an SS team) all the more deadly. Not to mention in a sandstorm that base 85 Sp Def gets rocketed up to huge proportions thanks to the boost, so Lunatone could be a good choice for a trick roomer on an SS team I suppose

Lunatone can get Hypnosis/Baton Pass. Baton Pass from XD, and use a Heart Scale to get Hypnosis back. Explosion should probably be mentioned because even from a base 55 Attack, it still hurts.
