도토링 배틀 레시피

The main objective of this set is to find a way to pull off one Growth, then proceed to quite possibly sweep, or just explode when low on health. Even though Seedot has a Life Orb, don't go trying to pounce on anything without setting up with Growth first, as Seedot would likely fail to do significant damage and get smashed in the face. However, after a Growth, its STAB Solar Beam OHKOes or 2HKOes anything that doesn't resist the attack or has huge special bulk. Hidden Power Fire is used to take out the Grass- and Steel-types who resist Solar Beam. Finally, Explosion not only sets Seedot apart from most other Chlorophyll sweepers, but also allows it to deal massive damage when it has no other options. Explosion also allows Seedot to take out a troublesome Pokemon and give a teammate a free switch in. Keep in mind, however, that Explosion should only be used when Seedot is low on health and has acquired a Growth boost, since it no longer halves the opponent's defenses. The EV spread maximizes Seedot's Special Attack and Speed while adding one more point to its Attack and decent Defense. With a Naive nature and the given EV spread, Seedot hits 26 Speed in the sun, allowing it to outspeed Choice Scarf users with 17 Speed, such as Chinchou. With Life Orb draining its HP so quickly and no Eviolite to soften blows, it should be noted that Seedot usually faints in a few turns after being brought out. Nature Power (which turns into Earthquake in Wi-Fi battles) or Hidden Power Rock can also be used over Explosion to take down Fire- or Flying-type Pokemon more reliably, but Seedot will then lose one of its main niches: the use of Explosion. Alternatively, you could juice up Explosion by transferring a stat point from Special Attack or Speed to Attack to increase the power of Explosion, allowing Seedot to OHKO most Lickitung. However, doing so reduces the number of Pokemon which Seedot can outspeed or OHKO with Solar Beam. Obviously, Seedot also requires team support to have any chance of pulling off a sweep. Entry hazards will aid Seedot a lot, as they will weaken its counters and turn some crucial 2HKOs into OHKOs. Ferroseed comes to mind immediately, as it can set up Spikes with ease. It does compound Seedot's Fire-type weakness, however. Tentacool also pairs up well with Seedot, as it can sponge the Fire- and Ice-type attacks that blow Seedot away while setting up Toxic Spikes. Strong Fighting-types such as Timburr can destroy Lickitung, who can check Seedot to an extent, making them great teammates as well. Seedot also greatly appreciates partners who can set up Sunny Day for it, preferably while holding Heat Rock.

Though Seedot doesn't have the greatest Speed in the world, Nasty Plot is the only thing that sets it apart from Exeggcute. After a single Nasty Plot boost, Seedot hits a Special Attack stat of 26, easily tearing apart most of the metagame. Solar Beam is Seedot's strongest STAB attack and, after a Nasty Plot boost, has a high chance of OHKOing any Pokemon that doesn't resist it (excluding Munchlax, who is 2HKOed through Oran Berry). With Sunny Day in play, Hidden Power Fire gets a 1.5x increase, and pairs very well alongside Solar Beam. However, Hidden Power Ground can be used instead to hit Fire-types harder, though not very many can survive a +2 Solar Beam. Finally, Shadow Ball smacks Ghost-types for super effective damage, most notably Gastly, who can stave off a Solar Beam and can OHKO back with Sludge Bomb. The EVs maximize Special Attack and Speed, with an extra point going to Defense and Special Defense. If using Hidden Power Ground, add another 4 EVs to Special Defense to make up for the lost IVs. Sunny Day support is absolutely necessary for this set; Exeggcute, Diglett, and Koffing are all decent Pokemon that can set up Sunny Day. In addition, this set will lose to many (if not all) Choice Scarf sweepers with 27 Speed or more, namely Gligar, Gastly, and Staryu, all of which can OHKO with a super effective attack. Gastly and Staryu are easy targets for Munchlax, who can stop both of them with little trouble. Wynaut is also a good teammate, as it can Encore an opposing Pokemon into a support move or a weak attack that Seedot resists (like Aqua Jet). With the Encored Pokemon locked in completely, Seedot should be able to switch in and set up Nasty Plot fairly easily.

This is probably the best set that Seedot is capable of running. Obviously, Sunny Day support is necessary in order for Seedot to attempt a sweep. Solar Beam is a very powerful STAB attack, and will not have to charge up under the sun. Hidden Power Fire gets good coverage alongside Solar Beam, and the coverage of the two is resisted only by Fire-types (which aren't very bulky to begin with), and pure Dragon-types (in Dratini and the uncommon Bagon). However, Hidden Power Ground can be used to hit said Fire-types, but loses overall coverage. Shadow Ball is a good coverage move, hitting Ghost-types that may try to come in on a predicted Explosion for super effective damage. Explosion should be used as a last resort, and it allows Seedot to easily OHKO Munchlax before going down, potentially clearing the way for another sweeper on your team. Life Orb boosts the power of all of Seedot's moves, and the EVs further boost them. Speed is also maximized, because Seedot will want and need to outspeed everything it can. The 3 HP IVs drop Seedot's Hit Points to 19, a Life Orb number. Sunny Day support is absolutely necessary for Seedot to work at all. Koffing, Ponyta, and Diglett are all decent supporters that can provide said weather support whilst having decent synergy with Seedot. Hidden Power Ice is an interesting option to use over the ones mentioned and gets a guaranteed OHKO on Gligar, but it isn't useful outside of that purpose. Other Sunny Day sweepers are also helpful in pulling off a sweep. Thanks to Explosion, Seedot can eliminate a problematic Pokemon, such as Munchlax, to open a sweep for a partner, such as Oddish. If the goal is to open a sweep for Oddish, Pokemon that can remove faster threats are highly recommended. Munchlax can remove Choice Scarf Gastly, while Koffing can beat Choice Scarf Gligar.
