Can I get two more moves for this Zebstrika? (at the E4 first round)

Zebstrika
Adamant/Any
-Wild Charge
-Flame Charge

[Aurath8]

Zebstrika
Lonely
-Wild Charge
-Flame Charge
-Return
-Overheat

Return gets good neutral coverage.
Overheat is there as an all-out attack(you dont really have a choice).

I'm replacing crustle with gigalith in my team but I have no idea what moves to give it. I was thinking Earthquake and rock slide for sure, but idk what else. ._. Help?

I would tack on Iron Defense. I can't tell you how many times it turned the tide in a battle in my favor. I also kept Headbutt, due to it having a decent base 70 attack power, added that it's a physical attack, something Gigalith is made for, with a chance to make the target flinch, and it also allowed Gigalith to have a move that hit things hard when it didn't have a super effective move to use against them. That's just me, though.

 

[metagrossman4]

im not sure if this is the right thread but whats better dark type

scrafty/zoroark

 

[Monochromatic]

scrafty/zoroark

They both have potential.

If you want a strong, bulky physical attacker, take Scrafty.
If you want a fast, powerful special attacker, take Zoroark.

I prefer Scrafty because he makes the Elite Four a joke, but that's just me.

 

[metagrossman4]

thanks i was leaning towards scrafty, ut that gives the confidence that i needed for him.

Return is significantly stronger than Headbutt.

Gigalith @ Leftovers
Impish / Sturdy
- Rock Slide
- Earthquake
- Toxic
- Protect

Nice movepool there, Rocky.

[Jessie_James]

And thank ya again Shine

 

[Kerech]

@Dark Latios: if you don't mind breeding;

Gigalith @ Leftovers
Nature: Adamant / Impish
Ability: Sturdy
- Rock Slide
- Earthquake
- Return
- Rock Polish / Autotomize / Curse

If you're going Adamant and don't want to breed, use Rock Polish. If you want Adamant and don't mind breeding, use Autotomize. If you want to go Impish and don't mind breeding, use Curse.

 

[Poke-Ed]

Meganium @ Leftovers
Nature: Bold/Calm
Ability: Overgrow
EV: 252hp/128def/128Sdef/4Satk
Ingrain
Leech Seed
Toxic/Protect
Giga Drain

This is a set I like, can be countered fairly well by magic guard ability or liquid ooze, and due to ingrain you can't switch out. Also, when hp gets low Giga Drain gets a nice boost that heals you for that much more. Could also go with Big Root over leftovers, but I find leftovers to be more reliable. Set also works surprisingly well in double battles if you can seed both opponents.
