Good moveset for Luxray


Cool Girl

Ah, you have a rather... subpar nature.

 

With Meowstic, since a lot of its moveset is Special, aim for Modest or Timid. Brave cuts one of its best stats while boosting its worst.

 

Since it's male Meowstic, a lot of its moveset is support moves. These all best synergize with its Hidden Ability, Prankster, which you regrettably lack. Female Meowstic has a more offensive moveset and can better utilize the Infiltrator ability.

 

Long story short, do what you want with it, since the outcome is not optimized. If you want to try your best despite its unfortunate stats, I'd recommend Psyshock and Shadow Ball as attacking moves, and Reflect and Light Screen, backed up with Soft Clay to make it an okay dual screener.

Meowstic's physical stats are not that great; as Gadjiltron mentioned, you'd be better off with Timid nature and its HA if available.

If you cannot get an HA, then just aim for the ideal nature.

 

Do you have a Pokemon with the Synchronize ability and the ideal nature?

That should help you a bit, or just breed one.

Slightly better, now that its Speed is unhindered. It loses some physical defense, but that shouldn't really be much of a problem.

 

Own Tempo is Espurr's Hidden Ability. Evolving will change it to Prankster and offer massive support synergy.

 

Aside from the dual screen set (since Reflect or Light Screen will, most of the time, go up before the attack connects), Prankster is fine for boosting with Calm Mind to turn Meowstic M into a sort-of Special Wall. Thunder Wave with Prankster is also great for crippling anything that isn't Elec or Ground type before they can even move, which can randomly buy a turn when the clutch "unable to move" happens and give you a turn's reprieve, or at least allow the Pokemon taking Meowstic's place to clean up what's been afflicted.

 

Swagger has interesting applications when combined with Thunder Wave. Just don't use it too much in PvP or your opponents will rage incredibly hard... or send in a Whimsicott to Prank-Taunt you.

Since it's for game-clearing, don't sweat too much - there isn't a lot in-game that can't be solved with some good old-fashioned level-grinding.

 

Since you're going against CPU opponents, you are free to use Swagger-Thunder Wave to force them to RNG their way out of it.

Leftovers

Lonely

Swagger

Thunder Wave

Substitute

Psychic/Psyshock

 

 

The alternative is a dual screener:

Soft Clay

Lonely

Reflect

Light Screen

Psychic/Psyshock

Shadow Ball

 

 

I can't remember at what points the appropriate TMs emerge, so you might have to settle for something less adequate if you're missing the moves.

There's always Bulbapedia and Serebii to check, but I am assuming this Meowstic is for that online Pokemon game (in which case, I have no clue about where things are).

 

Another thing though, keep your moveset questions in one thread.

It'll make it easier for us to look at your requests, and get them all in one shot.
