Gotta Breed Them All: Seedot / Nuzleaf / Shiftry – Best Egg Moves, Ability, Nature and IV spread
Been a while, but here we go, time for Seedot / Nuzleaf /Shiftry. Shiftry has a couple decent builds and as such for the best breeding aiming for 6IV is the best (alternatively, you could aim for 5IV -Sp. Atk for a more standard build if 6IV is too much effort). We pick up ‘Defog’ (this one requires a Pokemon from a previous gen to pass it on) and ‘Nasty Plot’ for our competitive egg moves. For the remaining two egg moves I’ve chosen ‘Foul Play’ for a bit of fun using an opponent’s attack stat against them and ‘Take Down’ if you want to enter it in a Tough Contest.

Smeargle, the ultimate Pokemon catcher
You need help catching legendaries and other hard to catch Pokemon? Not a problem, Smeargle is your solution! It can take some time to set Smeargle up, but through the use of Sketch you can make it the ultimate Pokemon catcher! Below is my Smeargle set-up I use to make sure I catch Pokemon every time.
- Moves:
- False Swipe: Takes opponent down to 1 hp
- Spore: Puts opponent to sleep
- Soak: Changes opponent type to water, allowing Spore to work against grass typed opponents and False Swipe to hit Pokemon you wouldn’t normally be able to hit, such as ghost typed Pokemon. It can also be used to remove other bad typing match ups such as steel/rock.
- Taunt: Prevents Pokemon from using non-attack moves such as teleport (looking at you Abra). Alternatively, you can teach it Thief for item hunting, or you could also use mean look instead for any Pokemon that have a tendency to run away (though this would only be useful in older generations).
- Ability: Technician – increases power of weak moves (increases power of false swipe, helping you get the Pokemon to 1 hp quicker).
- Item: Metronome – increase power of a move if used consecutively each turn (increases power of false swipe)
- Nature: Adamant
- IV’s: 5IV -Sp.Atk
- EV’s: 252 Spd, 252 Atk
