아라리 배틀 레시피

Moves Substitute lets Exeggcute safely abuse Harvest, giving it a nearly-unlimited supply of Oran Berries. Sleep Powder allows a free Substitute and also disables a single Pokemon for a short period of time. Predicting a switch is also a good opportunity to use Sleep Powder, set up a Substitute and attack, or set up a Leech Seed. Alternatively, Leech Seed can be used to wear down walls and provide even more recovery on top of Oran Berry and Giga Drain. Giga Drain provides a way of dealing damage while also providing some recovery, and is the primary STAB attack. Psychic is the secondary STAB move and can deal reliable damage to Fighting- and Poison-types that may want to use Knock Off, U-turn, or a Poison-type move. Hidden Power Fighting or Hidden Power Fire can be used to hit Pawniard and other Steel-types on the switch or while behind a Substitute, as otherwise these Pokemon can effortlessly switch in and OHKO Exeggcute with Knock Off. Additonally, Hidden Power Fire hits Bug- and Grass-types for super effective damage, preventing Ferroseed from walling Exeggcute. Protect is another option, but should only be used in conjunction with Leech Seed to safely restore more HP. Set Details The Speed EVs allow Exeggcute to Speed tie with Tirtouga before a Shell Smash. The 80 Special Defense EVs boost Exeggcute's poor Special Defense, giving it some much needed bulk. The rest of the EVs are dumped into Defense and Special Attack to bolster its two best stats. The combination of Harvest and Oran Berry gives Exeggcute unlimited recovery as long as it isn't hit with a move that can KO it while a Substitute isn't up. Usage Tips Exeggcute needs sun to function effectively, as sunlight gives it a 100% chance of recovering its Oran Berry with Harvest. Exeggcute also appreciates a slow pivot, which allows it to get into battle unscathed. Exeggcute likes to set up Substitutes against Pokemon that typically cannot harm it, like Chinchou, and against Pokemon that are inclined to set up, like Tirtouga and Omanyte. Leech Seed is a great recovery option that can also force switches, and such switch turns should be used to set up Substitute. Leech Seed works well in tandem with Exeggcute's other recovery options, such as Giga Drain and Oran Berry with Protect. Team Options Sun support is necessary to abuse Harvest. Vulpix can provide that support with Drought and can take Bug- and Ice-type moves well, while Exeggcute takes Water- and Ground-type moves for Vulpix in return. Pokemon that can come in on Pawniard and absorb Knock Off are also great partners. Exeggcute appreciates Stealth Rock, so a hazard setter like Onix or Dwebble is a good teammate. Additionally, Dwebble has access to Spikes which can further aid in racking up chip damage.

The trait that best warrants Exeggcute's success is its extreme diversity. It isn't diverse in the sense that it can run many sets effectively, but rather that all of its best skills are available in one set. With no form of permanent sunlight in Little Cup, Exeggcute can't sweep well enough to be usable. It is outclassed as a physical wall by almost everything out there, including Lileep and Ferroseed. This does, however, leave Exeggcute one set and a few roles it can play exceptionally well without being outclassed. This set can do quite a few things. First, if it is necessary to temporarily remove a threat from the game so one of Exeggcute's teammates can set up, Sleep Powder is close to the best thing there is. Leaf Storm is another way of doing this, as its sheer power is enough to OHKO some common offensive Pokemon such as Meowth, Chinchou, and Mienfoo. It also allows Exeggcute to counter Staryu, which is a huge threat to stall teams. Diverse Exeggcute works very well on such teams because of the combination of Sleep Powder's ability to cause switches and the egg Pokemon's ability to stall with Substitute, Oran Berry, and Harvest, which has a 50% chance of restoring a used berry. Furthermore, Exeggcute provides resistances crucial to stall teams, such as Fighting, Water, and Electric. Finally, Exeggcute uses Psychic as a STAB attack that doesn't lower its Special Attack, and to improve its coverage. It is also useful for Mienfoo that think they can come in and fire off a U-turn unharmed when Exeggcute has already used Leaf Storm. Once Exeggcute is in safely, it can do all it needs on its own, so teammates aren't as important as they are on other sets. Exeggcute works very well with entry hazards, as it causes many switches. Omanyte is a great teammate because it has nearly perfect synergy with Exeggcute and can set up all forms of entry hazards. Dual screens are useful, but Exeggcute is still successful without them. Because Exeggcute will be switching in and out a lot, removal of entry hazards will be very helpful; Pokemon that can use Rapid Spin, such as Staryu and Tentacool, which both have great synergy with Exeggcute, are good teammates. The latter can set up Toxic Spikes to aid Exeggcute's stall and check Mienfoo if Exeggcute isn't behind a Substitute, but be wary that Toxic Spikes might interfere with Sleep Powder. Pokemon that can lure in opponents checked by Exeggcute are good teammates, both offensively and defensively. Houndour is a great example, as it can lure in Croagunk, Timburr, and Staryu for Exeggcute to demolish. Likewise, it can OHKO Ferroseed and Levitate Bronzor with Fire Blast. Munchlax also lures in Croagunk and Timburr, and it can OHKO Gastly with Zen Headbutt or trap it with Pursuit. It also has Thick Fat to take the Fire- and Ice-type hits that Exeggcute are weak to.

While Exeggcute isn't the best wall in LC, it can accomplish a feat that no other wall in LC can; it can outspeed most Choice Scarf users and tie with Choice Scarf Magnemite. It can almost heal itself fully with Synthesis in the sun, taking away the need for Rest. Other than that, Exeggcute also gets Giga Drain to heal itself. Leech Seed is good with Giga Drain, allowing Exeggcute to regenerate its health at a crazy rate. Hidden Power Fire hits Ferroseed, which would otherwise wall Exeggcute completely. Protect stalls for Leech Seed damage, and Toxic can be used with Hidden Power Fire to have another way of taking down the opponent's health. Obviously for this set, Pokemon with Sunny Day support, such as Cherubi, are great partners to bring sun. Chesto Berry and Harvest can be used outside of sun, but that somewhat defeats the purpose of having a fast wall. Houndour is another great partner for Exeggcute, as it is immune to Fire-type attacks, and Exeggcute can take most Water-type attacks that aren't from Clamperl. Munchlax is a great partner, especially if it has Sunny Day, as it can take Ice- and Fire-type attacks coming at Exeggcute, while Exeggcute can sponge the Fighting-type attacks that trouble Munchlax. The EV spread gives Exeggcute maximum physical bulk while allowing it to outspeed common Choice Scarf users, such as Magnemite. However, Choice Scarf Misdreavus is the best counter to this set, as it will outspeed Exeggcute and KO it with Shadow Ball.

This set may seem outclassed by Oddish and Petilil offensively, but Exeggcute has much better defenses and STAB Psychic-type attacks to boast. Giga Drain is the preferred option because with Solar Beam, a weather changer such as Snover can switch in without difficulty, resulting in the move becoming highly ineffective. Psychic gives Exeggcute another strong STAB option to smack Pokemon that resist Grass-type attacks hard, while Hidden Power Fire hits the Steel-types that resist Exeggcute's other attacks. On the other hand, Hidden Power Fighting can be used to hit Houndour, which can otherwise destroy Exeggcute. Sleep Powder makes sure Exeggcute is not setup bait, while Synthesis gives Exeggcute more staying power. Again, Sunny Day support helps Exeggcute immensely for the aforementioned reasons. Energy Ball can be used sometimes, but compared to the instant health regeneration from Giga Drain, it's outclassed on the whole. Hidden Power Ground hits both Steel-types and Houndour, but Bronzor then has an easy time walling Exeggcute. Life Orb gives Exeggcute a lot of power, but Eviolite makes it very bulky with Synthesis. Heat Rock can be used to have an elongated sweep with Sunny Day, but that can be provided by team members. The EV spread makes sure that Exeggcute outspeeds +1 Magnemite, and the rest is put into HP.

With decent defenses, Exeggcute can run a good dual screen support set. Reflect and Light Screen are obvious choices for the first two slots. Light Clay will extend the duration of both of these moves by three turns. Sleep Powder is a great support move that can put a Pokemon that would normally counter Exeggcute, like Stunky, to sleep. If Exeggcute uses Explosion, it will allow a teammate to get 6 turns of one screen, and 5 of the other. However, Psychic is a decent option on this set if Substitute Gastly is troublesome. The EVs and nature emphasize Exeggcute's Special Defense, since its Defense is naturally higher. An extra point is given to Attack for Explosion, but it should be transferred to Special Attack if Psychic is being used instead. Setup sweepers work great with this set. Gligar is a great partner, since it has both Swords Dance and Rock Polish. Chinchou has Agility, and resists both Fire- and Flying-type attacks - two moves that easily wreck Exeggcute. Aron is another exemplary teammate, since it resists Bug, Dark, Ghost, Flying, and Ice - nearly all of Exeggcute's weaknesses - and can set up Rock Polish in order to threaten a sweep. Lum Berry Munchlax is another good partner, since it will not take much damage under dual screens and can beat Substitute Gastly - a Pokemon that would normally be a surefire stop to Exeggcute.

With a bulky spread, Exeggcute can become a reliable user of Sunny Day. Solar Beam is its strongest STAB next to Leaf Storm and, unlike Leaf Storm, will not lower Exeggcute's Special Attack by two stages. Psychic is a good secondary STAB move, but Hidden Power Ground hits Fire-types, namely Houndour, while Hidden Power Ice hits Gligar and bulky Grass-types for super effective damage, though Psychic will still do a good amount of damage to all of the above. Sleep Powder can put a threat or check to sleep. However, Explosion can clear the way for a sweeper and give it a free switch in. Since this set is for support and not sweeping, a bulky EV spread with a Calm nature is used. Even with the lowering of Attack, Explosion will still OHKO Munchlax. Despite the lack of any Speed investment, Chlorophyll will allow Exeggcute to get the jump on many slower threats and put them to sleep via Sleep Powder or KO them with one of its attacks. Heat Rock is the primary option to extend Sunny Day, but an Oran Berry can be used over it for extra longevity. However, three immediate extra turns of Sunny Day would be more appreciated by the rest of the team. Chlorophyll sweepers are happier with Heat Rock, so Pokemon like Swords Dance Bellsprout will have more sweeping time and will have double Speed for three extra turns. Choice Scarf Fire-type sweepers, such as Houndour and Ponyta, can make good use of the 1.5x bonus that Sunny Day will provide for their Fire-type STAB moves. They will also be able to beat Snover, a big threat to Sunny Day teams, one-on-one. Munchlax, which is another great Sunny Day supporter to consider, can also trap and KO Snover with Pursuit.

Due to Exeggcute's relatively low Speed, it can run a decent Trick Room support set. Trick Room allows it to go first in most cases, since it will have a minimal amount of Speed and can "outspeed" numerous threats in Trick Room. Sleep Powder is a great support move that allows slow setup sweepers to pull off a boosting move before the opponent wakes up. Psychic gets good neutral coverage and prevents Exeggcute from being helpless against Substitute Gastly and Drifloon. However, Leaf Storm is Exeggcute's strongest STAB attack and, even without any investment, can still do a good amount of damage, even with neutral damage. Explosion is a good pivot move, as it can remove an opposing threat most of the time, and can give a Trick Room sweeper a clean switch in. The EVs maximize Exeggcute's Defense, with the remainder going into Attack and Special Defense. A 0 IV in Speed is important so Exeggcute can outspeed more Pokemon under Trick Room. Trick Room sweepers are great partners for this Exeggcute. Thanks to its low Speed and access to powerful moves such as Dynamic Punch and Stone Edge, Machop can become a successful Trick Room partner. It is also great since it can KO Munchlax, a common switch-in to Exeggcute. Trapinch is in the same boat as Machop, but it shares an Ice-type weakness with Exeggcute. Still, Exeggcute can dispatch Munchlax with Explosion, but given Exeggcute's bulk, it can take up to three Fire Punches (factoring in Oran Berry). Also, Exeggcute should only use Explosion if it's low on health or if a naturally slower Pokemon like Paras switches in. In addition, it can take out a Taunt user with Explosion if it's being used in the lead slot. Finally, other Trick Room supporters, such as Slowpoke, Bronzor, and Duskull, also work well if Exeggcute goes down early in the match.

With 28 Speed under Sunny Day courtesy of Chlorophyll, passable Special Attack, and access to Explosion, Exeggcute is one of the most dangerous Sunny Day sweepers in Little Cup. Solar Beam is a powerful STAB attack, though it is the second strongest behind the counterintuitive Leaf Storm. Psychic is also very strong, and is capable of hitting many Pokemon that don't resist it for big damage. In the third slot, Sleep Powder is the primary option, allowing Exeggcute to essentially remove pesky Sucker Punch users from play - namely, Croagunk, Houndour, and Stunky; all three resist Solar Beam, with the latter two sporting an immunity to Psychic to boot. However, Hidden Power Ground would smack all three of these Pokemon for super effective damage on the switch in (though Croagunk is OHKOed by Psychic anyways), while Hidden Power Ice allows Exeggcute to get a super effective attack on non-Poison Grass-types (since Poison is weak to Psychic-type attacks). Even if Exeggcute lacks Sleep Powder, not even Munchlax is a great check to this set, as Exeggcute can easily remove Munchlax from the battle via Explosion. Explosion will also allow Exeggcute to literally go out with a bang when Sunny Day nears its end. Exeggcute's EVs boost its Special Attack and Speed, with an extra 2 points going to HP. There is no investment in Attack because Exeggcute will still easily OHKO Munchlax with Explosion. The best partners for this set are obviously Sunny Day supporters, since Exeggcute loses a lot of strength and viability if it cannot outspeed most of the metagame. Munchlax, Koffing, and Ponyta all work well with Exeggcute, since they cover most of each other's weaknesses, in one way or another. Though Exeggcute has access to Sunny Day, it's best to have other Pokemon set it up, since it would rather have an extra attack or Sleep Powder for support tactics. Choice Scarf Fire-types, like Houndour, that can also take advantage of Sunny Day are good, since they can clean up Exeggcute's messes.
