Uxie or Cresselia

[Benefit]

The only good thing i see on Cresselia that Uxie dosent have is Ice Beam, and if it realy misses it that much theres always Hidden Power Ice.

Actually i hate cresselia more than anything but i must say its got the defenses, more than hippowdon and skarmory (?), good speed, nice offenses,high sp.def... while uxie only has some more speed and 10 more defense, and cressy has more"reliable" recovery

They are both great in different ways, but I gotta show love to Uxie.

10 speed points are a lot of points, and do a lot of difference. Espicially when it comes to attacking, something that uxie does better than cress just because of its speed. Imagine if Garchomp had 92 speed, there is no way that he'd be the same threat he is right now. I'd rather use hippowdon/skarm as my df wall over cresselia anyday. 5pp, and just about every team has hippowdon/t-tar/ aboma which makes it's reliable recovery not so reliable. Reliable means that it can count on it at any time. Even if it wasn't effected by sandstorm it'd still be un-reliable just because of the 5-8 max pp.

The reason Uxie is better is because Cresselia doesn't _do_ anything. All Cress does is force Garchomp and Gyarados to switch, and maybe Thunder Wave. Uxie actually gets support moves worth using, like U-Turn or Stealth Rock, and is actually kind of fast to boot!
