Floatzel is a classic case where a bad movepool ruins it's potential. Well, at least it is not Delibird.


Jetzel

Aqua Jet
Ice Punch
Brick Break
Pursuit

Nature: Brave

Item: Life Orb

EV's 252 HP 252 Attack 4 Spd

A Floatzel who can priority spam, but have a bit of coverage.

Aqua Jet for spamming

Ice Punch for flyers....not that theyre common anyway....

Brick Break for Tyranitar

Pursuit for switchers.........Even though Floatzel will never force a switch.

Counters:
Basically anything that can out-priority it, basically, since that is what makes it decent.

Don't use dig. Your opponent may switch in for a free attack with a flying type. Dive is in the same boat.
