Mewtwo help

[Akayfortyseven]

Hi all, I am training a double battle tournament team (like JAA, but for link battles etc), and I want a mewtwo that can boom as well as get rid of kyogre, groudon and rayquaza. I caught a rash one last night that has flawless speed, 28 special attack, 29 attack and hp, and the rest are nothing below 18. I decided to keep it, but i am a bit stuck on evs and such. I was thinking max or near max speed, with the rest in attack and special attack with more special attack. I was thinking of this moveset;

@Leftovers
Self-Destruct
Ice Beam
ThunderBolt
Protect/Flamethrower/Psychic

Can anyone help me with evs? Im a bit unsure of them atm, what do i need to outspeed and such?

 

[dude]

i just have advice on his moves he needs to know psychic

 

[Akayfortyseven]

Yeah but BoltBeam covers more types then psychic, and i need protect to stop other boomers etc.

 

[dude]

i honestly think that protect is a waste of a move u just have to be faster then they are

 

[Akayfortyseven]

I suppose... but I will wait for other opinions first. Any ev suggestions?

Test certain things on Netbattle first; perhaps Max. Speed and Sp. Atk. You're still going to have a hard time OHKOing Kyogre, though.

Ive decided to use this ev spread:

228 special attack / 30 attack / 252 Spd

That should give me enough speed to be faster then alot of stuff, and also gives me enough in the attacks to give boom enough of a kick.

no matter how fast you are, you will have to eat a selfdestruct from snorlax

 

[Akayfortyseven]

Couldnt a boom from mewtwo KO an already damaged snorlax?

I always found recover, psichic, flamethrower, and icebeam to be great on Mewtwo. thats what I always put on him.

I use an all-out special sweeper moveset on my Mewtwo which is Flamethrower,Thunderbolt,Ice Beam, and Psychic. I maxed out speed and put the rest of the evs's in sp. atk.

 

[aipomkong]

full out sweeper mewtwo just doesn't cut it in competitive play

 

[Akayfortyseven]

Yeah im going for boom, as it is partnered with a booming gar, and if it is faster then it, then he can boom and then so can gar, obviously I will be waiting for either a turn after theyve already protected, or use taunt to shut it down completely. Any suggestions?

 

[Freakshow]

tbh your Mewtwo set is completely fine, but Thunder can go over Thunderbolt to hit Kyogre harder. Last slot should be protect

 

[Akayfortyseven]

So the EVs I suggested earlier are fine? I am going for;

Mewtwo@Lefties/Scope Lens
Rash, 252 spd/228 sp.atk/30 atk
Ice Beam
Thunder/Bolt
Protect
Self Destruct

Bear in mind its for 2v2.
