Luvdisc Movesets & Competitive Sets

Moves Attract a potential mate and entrance him, her, or it in your Charm. Then, set up a Rain Dance for a romantic Sweet Kiss in the rain. If you get rejected, this is also a very annoying moveset to face. If you can't win them over, you'd better make sure they suffer for it. Set Details As a classic saying goes, only true love can thaw a frozen heart. Hydration on Luvdisc ensures that it will thaw every time, the epitome of true love. Luvdisc is also very versatile in its nature. Are you bold in love and do you take your chances as you see them? Or are you the bashful kind that waits patiently for the perfect Prince Charming or Damsel In Distress? Luvdisc has boundless options for you! Usage Tips Wage an intense battle with your opponent to build up feelings of excitement between both parties. After Luvdisc's five other teammates have fainted, send it in with a proclamation of your love in the chat. Your proclamation of love should ideally be your original creation, but if you aren't the creative type, you could simply reference romantic works of literature that appeal to your opponent. Romeo and Juliet is a classic to quote from, but considering the average age group of Pokemon players, you're probably better off quoting from Despicable Me 2. After you have successfully seduced your opponent, coax him, her, or it to forfeit as a display of his, her, or its loyalty to you. Not only will you win battles, you will also win hearts. Love wins. Team Options Apart from Luvdisc itself, flowers are also supposedly very romantic gifts to present to your partner. Thus, Roselia, Floette, and Sunflora make for good teammates; these Pokemon can also tank hits for Luvdisc in battle, as they are much bulkier. Your other teammates could depend on the kind of partners whose affection you're trying to win. Diamonds are a girl's best friend, and Carbink is therefore a good teammate to show your affection for a lady. It also hits harder than Luvdisc in battle, helping it to break down bulky foes such as Persian. As for their male counterparts, I've heard that dogs are a man's best friend, so you might want to pack a Stoutland or Growlithe on your team as well.

Get in, set up Rain Dance, and hit stuff until Luvdisc keels over. Luvdisc does even better if you can get Rain Dance set up with a different Pokemon before bringing it in. The Speed EVs allow Luvdisc to outspeed Choice Scarf Electabuzz and everything slower in the rain.

Watch Luvdisc stall out his opponents with his amazing total of defenses not even topping 170. Confusion and attraction together equals a 75% chance your opponent has to wait one more turn before Luvdisc is turned into a pile of heart juice, Protect is another turn, which means that Toxic might inflict a little damage in the meantime. If you're lucky. Aqua Ring can be used on this set. Just kidding, of course.

Get to 1 HP somehow and start Flailing. Your third move is here to add more Speed should you run into one of the three or so Pokemon Luvdisc should ever face that actually outspeed him. Safeguard prevents you from being statused (because such a tank as Luvdisc is obviously going to get Toxiced and all...), or you could use the Water moves and hope to make a use out of Rain Dance and actually hurt Rock-types like Sudowoodo. If by hurt you mean tickle.

Such a load of potential here. First off, use Rain Dance to double the only stat that Luvdisc doesn't need a boost in. 95 Base Power with the boost from STAB and Rain Dance sounds very powerful, and it would be on any other Pokemon. Ice Beam is for all these Grass-types that have way too much Special Defense to hurt anyway, but I suppose I just like the words "It's super effective" on your screen. Toxic shows off Luvdisc's amazing stalling power with 43 HP, 55 Defense and 65 Special Defense, but Hidden Power Electric is there if you're afraid of Pelipper or (God forbid) a hostile Luvdisc!

With Blizzard, Luvdisc OHKOes Salamence; Ice Beam does 99% max... Rain Dance up against something like Rhydon that won't survive a Surf and hit everything "hard" with Surf and Blizzard. If you come across a Water-type, hit it with Hidden Power Grass. Lum Berry is more useful than Leftovers because, if Luvdisc get statused, it basically loses instantly and everything will either OHKO it or do 90% or so anyway so Leftovers aren't really that important. Even Suicune 2HKOes with Surf in the rain.
