Prinplup @ Eviolite
Ability: Torrent
EVs: 248 HP / 252 SpA / 8 SpD or 252 Spe / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Modest Nature
- Hydro Pump
- Defog
- Ice Beam
- Stealth Rock / Agility
This set is fabulous. It can sweep in late game with Agility, or simply put Stealth Rock. Defog is the essential move. Hydro Pump and Ice Beam are some nice moves to clean all...
Prinplup @ Eviolite
Ability: Defiant
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Hone Claws
- Waterfall
- Return
- Drill Peck
This set is pretty horrible, but Prinplup's movepool is pretty horrible, so yeah this is the best I could come up with (Other than like Salac Berry Flail lol) So while Defiant + SD isn't legal, Defiant + Hone Claws is, so physical Prinplup is sort of cool. Return gives good neutral coverage overall, and Waterfall is the main STAB move. Drill Peck hits Grass-types harder than Return, and is Prinplup's only other notable physical attacking option. Overall, a pretty bad set, but it's the best I could scrape up with Prinplup's movepool.

Return gives good neutral coverage overall, and Waterfall is the main STAB move. Aqua Jet provides priority, but if you want a move that can hit Grass-types harder, Drill Peck is an option. Overall, a pretty bottom-of-the-barrel set, but eh, it sort of works as a bulky sweeper.
not like that set would be any good if it did :x

HELLO I CALL BULLSHIT SINCE HERE I HAVE THE SET.
Rock TOMB lets you, the Prinplup user, crush the opponent's dreams by dropping the speed of their Grass type or setup sweeper or whatever while you do your business greatly reducing the stress of having to fish for a Scald Burn and while allowing you to revenge kill a Gorebyss more easily for example. This set is SO good that Magnemite stopped me by starting the vote because he didn't want this to spread.
He didn't want me to win.
So yeah i hope you can all reconsider your vote since this deserves to win.
And yes this is better than Icy Wind since it hits ARTICUNO and Floatzel harder
