Hi
everyone. Welcome to another Pokémon of the Week. Today we’re
reviewing Milotic, the Tender Pokémon.
It’s
been almost 2 years since we last reviewed Milotic and some
things have changed. It is still a very good competitive
Pokémon. New items and moves gave Milotic a couple extra sets
that are totally awesome. Its special stats are its forte so
this thing can actually be a decent special tank and sweeper.
Marvel
scale raises defense 50% if affected by burn, paralyze, sleep,
poison or freeze conditions, which is great if you know how and
when to use it. We’ll be talking more about that in a moment.
So, the
move combinations for today are…
Milotic.
Nature:
Calm (+ Special defense, - Attack), Bold (+ Defense, - Attack),
Modest (+Special attack, - Attack).
Equip:
Leftovers.
EV´s:
252 HP, 129 Defense, 129 Special defense.
- Surf
- Toxic
-
Recover / Haze / Ice beam
- Aqua
ring
Use
toxic, aqua ring and surf. I like using recover because it
normally gives you more time in battle, and makes your opponent
a little nervous. But Haze is also great move.

Nature:
Calm (+ Special defense, - Attack), Bold (+ Defense, - Attack),
Modest (+Special attack, - Attack).
Equip:
Leftovers.
EV´s:
252 HP, 129 Defense, 129 Special attack.
- Surf
- Ice
beam
- Rest
- Sleep
talk
This is
probably the most defensive set for Milotic. Rest and sleep talk
will slowly inflict damage while you keep restoring yours. Ice
beam and surf are your finishing moves, timing is important.

Recover / Haze

Hypnosis
This is
when we take advantage of marvel scale. Having your defense
raised means you can be a little more offensive. But if you need
more security then use hypnosis and keep sweeping.
When
should I use this Pokémon?
Milotic
is a very decent Pokémon; very hard to beat and capable of
defeating some tough Pokémon with patience. Great against
Salmence, capable of taking out Tyranitar and inflict some
important damage to Lati@s. I didn’t list it, but Mirror coat is
also a great move as well, you might want to be a little
creative with it.
What
should I use against this Pokémon?
Lanturn
and Starmie are natural counters. Jolteon and Zapdos are good as
well. I’d say electric works better than grass this time,
because of Ice beam.
Bottom
line:
Finals
are coming to an end and I’ll be able to (hopefully) finish the
new format. Thanks for reading and sending feedback. See you
next week.
Rating:
3.2/5
Hope
you enjoyed.
