Milotic / Leftovers / Calm / Marvel Scale EV: 252HP / 252DEF / 6SPATK IV: 31HP / 31DEF / 31SPATK / 31SPDEF / 31SPD Rest Sleeptalk Surf Icebeam This is just personal preference but I think bold Milo is absolutely the way to go. Your EV spread is fine but imo she is a physical wall and not a special one - since so many of the best special attackers in the tier (Jolt, Ala, Venusaur) have the ability to set up (calm mind, growth) and also recover any damage Milo can do, even with mirror coat which is pretty ez to spot beforehand. If you can get HP elec then even better, because then she shuts down Gyra so hard. Bold Milo also counters other physical threats like banded Aero, Flygon and Blaiz. She's just much better at walling those mons and killing back with surf. Don't keep her in vs Hera, you will get smacked. Calm nature means that switching into a banded rock slide from aero or eq flygon etc will hurt a lot more. Also I think a lot of the time here once you rest, good players will see sleepytalk coming and switch out to something which can really hurt Milo, rather than wasting their time battering at marvel scale - which again leads to the aforementioned set up and die scenario. As for moveset, recover is the way to go. Not just useful for general purposes but you can also use it to scout sets. For example, letting her take a hit from Slaking or Medicham and insta recover to see if scarf/band etc. It's pretty much impossible to OHKO Milo psychically without prior setup so no risk really. TLDR: Milo has limited special wall capacity. Make the most of her best factors, and go bold nature, or run haze. Edited July 17, 2017 by Jordzi Link to comment
