    Double battle Tangrowth. Is this EV spread any good?

    Tangrowth@Heat Rock
    Trait: Chlorophyll
    Nature: Timid/Modest
    EVs: 252 SP. ATK/ 252 SP. DEF/ 4 SPEED

    Sunny Day
    Solarbeam
    Toxic/Ancientpower/Sludgebomb
    Focus Blast

    Its paired up with a fire type, RMT(Rate My Tangrowth:))?
     
    Tangrowth @ Leftovers
    Trait: Chlorophyll
    Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
    EVs: 240 HP / 132 Def / 136 SAtk
    -Energy Ball / Giga Drain
    -Leech Seed
    -Reflect / Sleep Powder / Toxic
    -Focus Blast

    Hope that helps. Bold for physical wall mainly. Too high of a Defense to be put to waste...

    If you want a REAL Tangrowth set, try these:

    Tangrowth @Leftovers
    EVs: 252 HP / 6 Atk / 252 Def
    Impish Nature
    -Power Whip
    -Leech Seed
    -Sleep Powder
    -Knock Off

    One of the most recommended Tangrowth sets. This guy can survive so many physical hits, even supereffective ones. Plus, it's got an array of annoying support moves to help you out. Leech Seed and Sleep Powder are very annoying together and with Knock Off, you can ruin so many Pokemon that rely on their item.

    Tangrowth @Leftovers
    EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 6 Spd
    Adamant Nature
    -Power Whip
    -Earthquake
    -Rock Slide
    -Swords Dance

    Tangrowth has a nice physical movepool and can be a formidable sweeper. Power Whip is your key attack of course. Earthquake and Rock Slide provide coverage against Pokemon that are resistant to Grass - Flying, Fire, and Steel types.

    Tangrowth @Heat Rock/Lum Berry
    EVs: 6 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
    Modest Nature
    Ability: Chlorophyll
    -Solarbeam
    -Hidden Power [Fire]
    -Sunny Day
    -Sleep Powder

    This revolves around Tangrowth's Chlorophyll ability. It just like any other Sunny Day sets you may have seen. HP Fire gets a boost in the Sun and helps against Steel and enemy Grass types. Sleep Powder knocks out anything else that tries to counter you.

    Togekiss @Leftovers
    EVs: 252 HP / 172 SAtk / 84 SDef
    Modest Nature
    Ability: Serene Grace
    -Air Slash
    -Thunder Wave
    -Aura Sphere
    -Wish/Roost

    Paraflinch Togekiss is very annoying. It can drive you mad by paralyzing your Pokemon, flinching them 60% of the time with a Serene Grace boosted Air Slash, and simply recovering off any damage when it gets hit.

    Togekiss @Leftovers
    EVs: 252 HP / 228 Def / 28 SDef
    Calm Nature
    Ability: Serene Grace
    -Air Slash
    -Wish/Roost
    -Nasty Plot
    -Baton Pass

    Togekiss is one of those few Pokemon that learns both Nasty Plot and Baton Pass. The special sweepers on your team will love you when you pass them a doubled Sp. Attack boost.

    Togekiss @Choice Specs/Choice Scarf
    EVs: 6 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
    Modest Nature
    Ability: Serene Grace
    -Tri-Attack
    -Air Slash
    -Aura Sphere
    -Grass Knot

    Like any Pokemon with good Sp. Attack and a diverse special movepool, Togekiss works great as a Choice sweeper. This gives Togekiss an oppurtunity to use Tri-Attack and Grass Knot helps against hefty opponents that can be harder to take down, like Rhyperior or Milotic.

    Courtesy of aragornbird. Im using the first moveset he wrote, its very useful as I have a weakness to outraging garchomps..
     
    Yeah, those are some good sets. Use one of those.
     
    I think that was the first set on tha long list. That one is really good.
     
    The first one is a single battle one.

    I wanted mine to be a Special Attacker. I guess I put sunnybeamer for speed and to help the fire type.

    OK, I'm debating, Stun Spore, Sleep Powder, or Toxic?

    Stun Spore - May have a chance of attacking, but the effect lasts forever.

    Sleep Powder - Foe is unable to attack momentarily

    Toxic - Foe is able to attack, poison damage gradually worsens.

    Hmmm... Any suggestions? Oh yes, and Leech Seed is down right switching out.
     
    Yeah, yours is single battle too, I really dislike Knock Off, you can only use it one time :(.

    Any suggestions for the Powders(and Toxic)?
     
    Well if there is a sleep clause I suggest toxic but if not then definatly sleep powder so that you don't have to worry about two pokemon attacking you, only one.
     
    Forgot about sleep clause. Toxic is a good alternative. Or a stat move or something.
     
    I guess if you wanted you could go with careful and max special defense but it probably still won't be able to take an ice beam or flamethrower.
     
    OK I'd rather stick with DEF. I already maxed out SP .ATK, this is what I'm planning for:

    252 SP. ATK/ 100 DEF/156 HP

    this OK?
     
    It can take hits and it's definatly now tank material so go for it but you'd better have chlorophyll if you are using it as a tank.
     
    OK here's what I got

    Tangrowth@Heat Rock
    Trait: Chlorophyll
    Nature: Modest/Calm/Bold
    EVs: 252 SP. ATK/ 100 DEF/ 156 HP

    Sunnyday
    Solarbeam
    Sleep Powder/Toxic
    Focus Blast

    I think we should have another attacking move because Chlorophyll heightens speed, and it is good to use an attack type move with high speed.
     
    Synthesis heals to full health in the sun. I recommend that.
