...Spinda? I have got one that I'm going to replace with something, but I'd like to finish it first.

...Meganium? It's good defences should make it a nice tank, but I dunno...

...Ampharos? It could do as a Psuedopasser, but again, I don't know.

...Skarmory? There are lots of movesets for these out there, but while I'm making this thread why not ask this too...

...Nosepass? It seems as if no one is using it, so I might put one on my team.

Sorry if I asked too much, and thanks for all help!

Ermm Why Spinda? Just curious as it's weak in all respects...

Spinda is one of my favorites. It looks drunk. And it learns Teeter Dance, one of my favorite moves. But as I said, I'm going to replace it because of that, it just feels bad to leave it unfinished.

First time I saw Spinda I was like "ahhhhh" lol. Movesets I'm not sure for Spinda, the others though are a little easier...

...Meganium? It's good defences should make it a nice tank, but I dunno...

I just trained one, and it has:

Counter (Breed with Breloom)
Leech Seed (Same here)
Razor Leaf
Body Slam

The Razor Leaf and Body Slam are just fillers. It was made to counter my Feraligatr, who's an Aerial Ace whore. Toxic and/or Light Screen could go over either move.

Thanks a lot for the movesets! So Nosepass is useless, alright... How about a Murkrow? Only thing I know about it is that it has waaaay low defence.

Things like Nosepass and Murkrow are UU Pokemon and even with good Movesets they're still bad so you see why they're UU Pokemon.

Murkrow can be annoying as hell nowadays:

Feather Dance/Thunder Wave
Confuse Ray
Drill Peck/Aerial Ace/Night Shade
filler

You can get all of these moves by breeding Feather Dance to Natu and letting it learn Confuse Ray.

Okay, but how do I get Feather Dance? Is it available on Colosseum (which I have), or will I have to wait until Fr/Lg comes out?

The Pidgey family learns it, so you'll have to wait or import. Thunderwave's out until then, too.

Feather Dance?!?! What does that even do? Some sort of stat affecting move?

It's weak, but I LOVE Nosepass!!!

NOSEPASS@Brightpowder
(Careful)
EVs: 255 def, 255 sp def
~both abilities suck for him!~
-Toxic/Thunderwave
-Sandstorm
-Double Team
-Explosion

Wow, his defense is great! 405 max! Hell, his sp defense is max 306. Staying power, but no HP and no attack stats. He makes an OK annoyer, but...
