Weavile is a pokemon that deserves more respect than it has now. It can be more useful than anyone has thought before. Since this generation is the generation of weather and dragon domination, Weavile could be useful in many situations.
Overview
-Weavile has been completely forgotten in this 5 Generation. Mainly because of mamoswine and partialy because of its poor moovepool compared to some other pokemon.
-Weavile still can be very useful when it comes to pure damage or when facing a dragon that wants to set up.(The dragon could be scarfed as well)
-With great speed and solid attack it can break through teams easily. You just need to watch out for counters.
-Choice Band ice shard completely destroys salamence,dragonite and basically every non-scarf dragon.
Set
name:Weavile
move 1:Ice shard
move 2:Ice punch
move 3:Night slash / Pursuit
move 4:Brick break
Item: Choice Band
nature: Jolly
EV's: 252 att / 252 Spe / 6 Def
Why this deserves to be on Site
-Stops dragons from setting up.
-Stops many other Pokemon from setting up because their +1 speed is not enough to outspeed Weavile so he finishes them off with the appropriate move
-Deals a ton of damage with ice punch and night slash.
-Can be used in OU without a problem(with appropriate teammates,will be mention later)
-Can be used as a revenge killer
-Only 1 OU (Jolteon) and 1 UU (Crobat) outspeed it without a scarf
-Good type coverage, since it has a choice band this is a very important factor
-Because of its very good type coverage, it is capable of finishing off any weakened pokemon.
-He is also great against Tyranitars
-Simply destroys any Pokemon that has a type disatvantage against him.
Additional comments
-Weavile OHKOs Salamance with an ice shard easily.
-2 OHKO's Dragonite without SR. 1 OHKO's with SR.(for ice shard)
-Ice punch OHKO's in any case.
-OHKO's any type of Latios or Latias.
-Deals with brelooms and Gliscors with ease.
-OHKO's Haxorus with Ice punch.
-2OHKO's blissey
-2-3 OHKO Ferrothorn.
-2 OHKO's Rotom-W
-The EV spread is very simple. All out offensive.
-You could change ice shard or ice punch for pursuit to trap Psychic Pokemon, but it is not recommended. Only if you are sure that dragons can't set up on you.
-Try to save Weavile until you really need him. He is most successsful in mid-game and late-game periods.
Counters
-His worst nightmares are Fighting typed Pokemon with priorites like Conkeldurr. They both take his attacks well and destroy him with the priority move.
-Scizor, Skarmory, Forretress, and other steal type pokemon that are neutral to Brick break are huge problem because they can take Weavile's attacks all day, all night.
-Some fire typed Pokemon (Infernape) could be considered as minor counters but they are not usually a big problem
Teammates
- Usually a Dragon type should be together with Weavile, because Weavile makes the air free for the Dragon.
- A Heatran ,Rotom-W or Gliscor are good options as well because they cover his weaknesses.
- Even a Reuniclus can be fit inside a team with Weavile.
- Also a nice Special attacker that has the Offensive combo with Weavile would fit excellent, like an Alakazam.
- Weavile could also use a spinner because of its weakness to SR
