Hey. I'm about to raise a Marowak and am having a dilemma as to what it's final move should be.
Marowak:
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Double Edge
???
@ Thick Club
ability: Rock Head
EVS: 106 HP, 252 atk, 152 sp def
nature: adamant
I'm not trying to break the rules and ask for a moveset without posting a team... I do not have a team to post yet as I have not finalized all of my decisions. I'd just like to open this up for discussion as to what each of you think is best for the filler move. I really don't feel like breeding for Hidden Power... seems way too random and time consuming. Personally, I think Swagger is a good one. Swords Dance is nice but I don't think he can survive the setup with his speed. After SDing, he could probably get 1 attack off before he's out. I've seen Focus Punch used, but I imagine that he would just get attacked ASAP, making it ineffective. I've also seen Aerial Ace, but do the math... a super-effective Aerial Ace is the same base power as a Double Edge. What are all of your opinions? Thanks a lot.
