^ Registeel or Latias would be your best bet.

Registeel @ Leftovers
252 HP / 176 Def / 80 SpD
Careful
- Rest
- Iron Head
- Curse
- Earthquake / Amnesia

Latias @ Wise Glasses
252 SpA / 252 Spe
- Recover
- Dragon Pulse
- Calm Mind
- Surf

I have recently obtained a shiny sneasel, so I was wondering what is a good in-game moveset moveset for weavile that does not use egg moves, or HGSS exclusive moves.

IVs are average, nature is Rash which shouldn't effect much.

I'm going to assume it will run a 4 HP ,252 Attack, 252 Speed EV layout.

Weavile @ Choice Band / Life Orb
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
~ Aerial Ace / Ice Shard
~ Brick Break
~ Night Slash
~ Ice Punch

Ice Punch is an Egg move but it is also a Platinum Move Tutor move. Oh, and Rash isn't a great Nature for Weavile either.

If it's for the Battle Tower you can use a CounterSash Weavile.

Weavile@Focus Sash
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
- Counter
- Ice Punch
- Night Slash
- Brick Break

Counter when you find a physical Pokemon for the KO, and then proceed to sweep.

I can't change what nature's my shinies have, it's either that or a neutral natured one with pathetic IVs. Neither Sp A, nor SP D are going to be used, so it may as well be neutral anyway. Thanks for the moveset though.

If it's for the Battle Tower you can use a CounterSash Weavile.

can anybody give me any ideas on a moveset for my Shiny Metagross?
it's nature is Brave, i want him to be a physical wall/sweeper. thanks :D

Brave isn't the best Nature but it isn't the worst either since it is still useable. I would probably go with a mixed attacker since it has a decent Special Attack too.

Metagross @ Life Orb
Brave Nature
EVs: 252 Atk / 160 SpA / 96 Spe
~ Meteor Mash
~ Earthquake
~ Shadow Ball
~ Grass Knot

Not really standard but it beats Metagross' usual counters. Namely Swampert.

but it has already EV: 252 ATK / 252 DEF
what should i do?

Use Qualot Berries to remove the Defense EVs. You may have to plant some to get a sufficient amount of them though. If Metagross isn't Level 100 you can just EV Train Metagross in Special Attack and Speed as you would normally EV Train a Pokemon. The Speed EVs are there for outspeeding max Speed Adamant Rhyperior so you can put them into Special Attack or HP if you feel you don't need the Speed EVs.

^ Dragon Pulse over Iron Tail, and shift some of those EVs into SpA.

^ I think you mean Iron Head, and Iron Head is generally better ingame, as you don't have the abundance of dragons that you do in competitive.

Im a pro
Should I keep this Hidden Power?
I have recently bred a Modest, Magnet Pull Magnemite with very good ivs and found its Hidden Power to be DRAGON is it good enough and if not what is a good moveset to have without Hidden Power because Im not wasting a good Magnemite like this.
This is what I was thinking for a moveset without Hidden Power

Magnezone@Leftovers
Modest 252 Sp.Att/126 HP/64 Def/64 Sp.Def/4 Speed
-Thunderbolt
-Substitute/Flash Cannon
-Magnet Rise/Mirror Coat
-Tri Attack

Is this a good moveset?
Thunderbolt and Flash Cannon for STAB, Substitute to block Status, Mirror Coat against special attackers and Tri Attack for neutral coverage.
