Which move for BP? And I don't like Bold because of a 110 base Sp. Att. and the damage Surf can do with Modest. Quick Attack is for the Enflailers and EnRevers.

Why is everyone double posting?

Vaporeon isn't meant to be a sweeper, its a bulky water meaning its supposed to take hits and counter physical pokemon like metagross. If you want a sweeper, use starmie or even lapras.

Quick Attack coming off an already weak attack stat with a modest nature will be extremely weak and won't hurt an abra. Use Wish over it please. Baton Pass, haze, and charm and even protect are all viable options over acid armor as it doesn't need to baton pass it in the BF.

You'll need to rebredd for bold nautre and while you are doing it you can give it a better effort value spread. 188 HP will give it 448 hp, max leftover recovery but you can max it if you want. Max defesne and rest in special defense. Remember, starmie and/or lapras and sharpedo are better water special sweepers. Also, Omastar and Gorregyss are good water special sweepers that use rain dance.

Yeah Vap is best used as a bulky water or a baton passer, you can try passing curses if you want, and give it shadow ball or return as an attacking move, along with surf and baton pass, and if you give a white herb to the recipitant, it will negate the speed drop. You can pass wishes as well if your slow enough to take damage meaning the recipitant gets a free heal. I personally prefer passing wishes as it supports the enitire team if used correctly.

Fun:

A pseudo Blastoise/Omastar set:

Vaporeon@Leftovers
Bold, Modest, Timid
HP Electric
Bite
Ice Beam
Surf/Waterfall

Vaporeon is limited, as most of the eeveelutions are when it comesa to offensive moves (Umbreon can't use any offensive move right, though). In GSC, Vaporeon never got the luxury of learning Zap Cannon like the other four did (Bad move, yes, but at least it's an Electric Attack.), SO it was always stuck with HP Electic as an alternative.

But l;iek everyone else said, Vaporeon exists to be a bulky water type, not a sweeper.

Guys, I knew that it is supposed to be a Bulky Water, but I'm throwing this set out there as an alternative to originality. Anyways, it's been working incredibly in the BF. Because of it, I've gotten closer to getting gold symbols than I ever have before.
