Hi i was just wondering if someone could teach me how to create a good moveset. ive tried and they always suck
 
For what pokemon in particular?
 
any i need tips on making a good moveset for any pokemon but right now im looking at weavile and lucario if u need specifics
 
1. Make sure to use the pokemons' type to your advantage. (To get STAB, same type attack bonus)
2. Pick either Sp. Attack or Attack, to maximize power and to narrow your chioce selection. (If you EV train)
3. Pick strong moves, but with plenty of accuracy. Earthquake is always a good choice for ground types (100 acc,100 power).
4. Pick moves that heal, if you're using a tank.
5. Remember the combos. http://www.serebii.net/games/combo.shtml
6. Practice with others to make sure it is a good set, and change if necessary.
 
thanks for your tips i tried making a moveset for a snorlax can someone rate it
Snorlax- thickfat-chesto berry
belly drum
rest
substitute
focus punch
 
It has too much risk.
The substitute and the belly drum cause for an unsafe drop in HP, even with rest and chesto berry, there is a lot of risk.
Try moves that are less risky and include STAB
 
so wat if i took out substitute and focus punch and added body slam and earthquake this way i only need to use rest after bellydrum and i added a stab move in this time
 
Sounds good. Just make sure that you are careful. You don't want 'lax fainting right after you use belly drum.
 
well for lucario a set that can work is
Lucario @life orb
calm mind
aura sphere
flash cannon
dragon pulse

all of them give nice type coverage and highlight on his slightly higher sp att stat, but you could also go with the mixed sweeper, but they are harder to balance out ya know

and for weavile
weavile @leichi berry
swords dance
night slash
shadow claw
avalanche

avalanche works well with leichi berry and the other two attacks have a high critical hit ratio and type coverage + one gets stab
 
thanks for the help ill try getting up a full team for rating soon
 
No, don't use luster/flash cannon. It's a steel type move, and steel is the second worst attacking type in the game (besides poison).

WHY ARE YOU USING AVALANCHE ON WEAVILE?!?!?!?!?!? WHY OH WHY?!?!?!
Yeah... I just had to throw that in. Avalanche has a priority modifier, making it automatically go last. Weavile can't be taking any hits. Replace it with ice punch. Also, never put ghost and dark attacking moves on the same set. Replace shadow claw with brick break.
