    Now I know I asked for help before on Noctowl, but now I'm a bit confused. I spread some EV's in Sp.Def & Speed, and I have her moveset just about figured out, except for his last move. Take a look:

    Noctowl: Light Clay
    Modest (don't feel like re-breeding for Calm)
    Hypnosis
    Reflect
    Whirlwind
    Extrasensory/Psychic/Air Slash


    I can't decide on a last move. Should I keep Air Slash for a STAB, Psychic for the power, or Extrasensory cause it has the most PP? I checked Psypokes.com damage calculator, but they kept telling me that Air Slash is physical, when it is really special. So the information they gave me wa inaccurate.


    She's my teams Reflector, and along with a previously set-up Stealth Rock, her Whirlwind could cause some damage. First I put the opponet to sleep with Hypnosis, then switch em' out with Whirlwind, while damaging them with Stealth Rock. Reflect is to help the team, and with Light Clay, Reflect would last even when Noctowl's not around.
     
    i personally would give it night shade... though you'd have to breed for it. and rather modest, i'd have it bold, especially if you're going to use it for setting up reflect and using whirlwind/hypnosis. night shade hits everything except for normal types, those whom you can just put to sleep anyway. that way, you can just focus on noctowl's hp and defenses rather putting some evs anywhere else.

    other than that, i really don't think you should use noctowl for this. if you like it, go for it, but it is considerably weak.

    Ima have to comment on your Noctowl myself. His attack is REALLY poor, even at its max. Steel Wing is bad on Noctowl. I always feel that it needs Whirlwind in order to be useful.

    And Sampson, thanks for the advice. I will still use Noctowl, it ia a personal fav of mine.
     
    I'm breeding for better ones with Skarmory and Fearow. Got 2 eggs now I have to hatch them.

    I use that noctowl as a Special Sweeper. Steel wing it just used for the rock types.
