Weezing Moveset

[Rabid_Cow]

I like that Weezing has decent ATK & Special ATK, and I think that Levitate ability would be useful! The only problem is that I can't think of a good moveset that could be used in a serious battle.

Any help would be appreciated!

will-o-wisp
haze
explosion
sludge bomb/fire blast/thunderbolt/shadow ball (occasional, usually only a secondary on non hazing weezings)

[Rabid_Cow]

i like the moveset except i can't decide on da last move!

any more opinions?

If in doubt, go with STAB.

Sludge Bomb.

Only real downside is that it won't affect Steel types, but all of them are vulnerable to Will-o-Wisp, and no set is perfect.

You will also need to use the TM version to combine it with Will-o-Wisp; if this is not an option go with Shadow Ball instead.

Thunderbolt is nice for taunt-gyarados and skarm.

Weezing@Leftovers (HP, Def & Sp Def EV's)

Fire Blast/Flamethrower/Thunder/Thunderbolt (For Steels/Gyrados)
Explosion/Destiny Bond/Memento
Haze/Toxic/Will-o-Wisp
Sludge Bomb

Memento isn't that bad of a move to use, it screws over physical sweepers big time, but I'd still choose D-Bond over it.

[Rabid_Cow]

should i go with will o wisp or toxic?

will o wisp lowers attack, but toxic lowers health, and faster than burn.

any opinions?

thanks for the replies so far!

IMHO Will-o-Wisp. Steel types and pokémon with Immunity are not affected by Toxic. There is a good reason that not that many types can learn Will-o-wisp.

This is what i went with:

Weezing

-Will-o-Wisp
-Haze
-Destiny Bond
-Thunderbolt

I think this guy will be a nice addition, expecially with the haze.

Thanks for all of your opinions, they're all greatly appreciated!

before you decide, remember that weezing's speed is very low, so destiny bond might not be right for you. explosion has a better chance because even if they don't knock you you out, you'll be HIGHLY guarenteed to knock them out. explosion is also useful in 2 vs. 2 battles, destiny bond isn't. but the set you chose is fine, just re-think destiny bond, it's more suited on gengar and gardevoir.

[Rabid_Cow]

yeah I agree, his speed does kinda stink....

I think I will go with Explosion over Destiny Bond! Thanks for the help.

Pokegod and give some shinies to Victreebong too....
