#632 - Durant
« on: August 07, 2011, 01:35:24 AM »
Name: Durant
Number: 632
Type: Bug/Steel

Abilities: Swarm, Hustle, Truant

Base Stats:
65 / 109 / 112 / 48 / 53 / 109

Level Up Move Edits:
None

Example Set
HoneHustle @ Life Orb
252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HP
Hustle, Jolly
- Hone Claws
- X-Scissor
- Iron Head
- Thunder Fang / Rock Slide

Explanation of Set
Hustle decreases your accuracy, and Hone Claws tops it up again - while giving you 2.25x Damage on each of your attacks. STABs are for STAB sake - Thunder Fang hits Gyarados and Jellicent for a lot of damage (Jellicent particularly resists both STABs, Gyarados is just a jerk). Rock Slide however hits fires that may try to switch in.

Example Set
Band @ Choice Band
252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 HP
Hustle, Jolly
- X-Scissor
- Rock Slide
- Iron Head
- Thunder Fang

Explanation of Set
This is a high risk, ridiculous rewards set - if you hit with this set, the opponent's probably going down. 2.25x Damage without set up is ridiculous, and coming off Durant's high base attack, it's a sure dent on every poke - sure KOs on others.
Just watch out though, if you miss, you will probably lose your Durant.
