His Eminence Lord Poppington II
proverb:the fish who eats most dies still too
The fact that it's designed to set up on a special attacker or defensive pokemon doesn't detract from the fact that it's easily revenged by physical pokemon. I don't have a set that would do better in NU though, although...Bibarel@Something(still indecisive, just slapped random items on usually Lefties, Wise Glasses, Expert Belt, Lum Berry etc.)
Special Attacker/Defender
Modest/Calm Nature
Simple
252 Sp.Def/Sp.Atk/4 HP
-Charge Beam
-Amnesia/Super Fang
-Surf
-Ice Beam
I know this is SUPER-weird but in NU it actually works really well at killing off various threats after one or even two Charge Beams with a pseudo-Bolt Beam and Water STAB. Amnesia provides REALLY good Special Bulk and whenever Bibarel is faster than a Sp. Attacker it either causes a switch or gets to set up with CBeam. I still have no idea regarding the best item, but it's my only adventurous Pokemon, and often my cartridge opponents have no idea about what to do to Bibarel. Unfortunately, it is killed by many physical attackers, but it's designed to set-up on a Special Attacker or Defensive Pokemon.
UU Cosmic Power Clefable - @ Leftovers, Bold/Calm EVs - mixture of defenses, although I prefer Bold 252 HP / 252 Def, due to their unevenness in Clefable's defensive stats.
Cosmic Power
Charge Beam
Ice Beam
Softboiled
Basically, I have set up on Infernape's life orbed Close Combats at + 1, it's that good, although I did spend most of the time praying for no crit. Sweeps like NP.
