i got a lvl 22 milotic, so its not verygood
-ice beam
-blizzard
-water pulse
-??? (i forgot this move, might add toxic for replacement)

Answer 1

Mine is similar to trachy's:
- Surf
- Ice Beam
- Toxic
- Recover

Pretty standard moveset, really - Water and Ice type moves cover all bases with at least regular effectiveness (except for Water itself). Dragon Pulse is powerful but adds no advantage if you already have Ice Beam.

Comments

Good point. I like this moveset better.

Did You Know
 the champion of pokemon emerald,Wallace has a milotic with the SAME moveset

Answer 2

Is everybody now asking these questions? :)

Surf: Great power and accuracy, STAB
Ice Beam: Great power and accuracy, used to deal with Grass types
Dragon Pulse: Good power, great accuracy
Attract or Toxic: Either one inflicts a powerful status condition.

Answer 3

Staller Milotic

Milotic - Bold Nature (^Def -Atk) #Leftovers
+ 252 HP EVs / 200 Def EVs / 58 Sp Atk EVs

• Toxic

• Scald

• Recover

• Protect/Ice Beam (Depending on whether you want an extra attack or an extra turn of stall for Leftovers and Toxic)

Comments

Since you have Toxic, replace Scald with Surf.

---

Why not give her a Flame Orb to activate her ability?? You dont have any physical attacks, so you wont suffer from the attack drop.

---

Surf is better than Scald here because you already have Toxic, and as of Gen V you can't have more than one major status ailment (poison, paralysis, sleep, burn, frozen) on a pokemon. Plus Surf has better power; 95 as opposed to Scald's 80. Other than that this is pretty good. My random shiny Milotic has this moveset, only I have Surf instead of Scald, of course. I picked Ice Beam over Protect because it gets rid of Milotic's Grass weakness.

Answer 4

Milotic

This is a pretty annoying set I see a lot in UU.

Suggested Nature:Calm

Suggested item: leftovers

Suggested ability: marvel scale

• Rest: Gets rid of damage and status.
• Sleep Talk:Works with rest.
• Scald:STAB; offers a chance to burn.
• Dragon Tail:Used for pokemon that can counter milotic.

Comments

Note: Dragon-tail has 0 Priority with Sleep Talk (O.O)

Answer 5

Gen V

Milotic (F) @ Leftovers
Trait: Marvel Scale
EVs: 4 HP / 248 Def / 4 SAtk / 252 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Ice Beam
- Scald
- Recover
- Dragon Tail

Answer 6

Milotic @ Choice Specs/Life Orb

Trait: Marvel Scale

EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpA

Modest Nature (+SpA, -Atk)

• Hydro Pump/Surf
• Ice Beam
• Hidden Power Grass/Hidden Power Electric
• Dragon Pulse/Recover

Hydro Pump is STAB, and is very powerful. If you have had some nasty surprises with 80 accuracy moves, Surf is a solid aternative.
Ice Beam hits Grass types hard, and gets good coverage along with the Water move.
Hidden Power Grass hits Lanturn, Swampert and Quagsire while Hidden Power Electric hits Empoleon and both hits Water types for nice damage.
Dragon Pulse hits Kingdra hard, while Recover is excellent healing.
If you use Specs, Dragon Pulse should probably be used because Milotic will be locked into Recover if it's using Specs.
Life Orb should be used with Recover, but if your team needs a solid move for Kingdra Dragon Pulse is a decent alternative.
Also, a sprea of 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid is an option if you would like to just max out speed, and works well with life orb.

Answer 7

Good stalling Milotic.

Recommended Nature- Calm
Recommended Item- Leftovers
Recommended Ability- Marvel Scale

• Substitute- It will make it that much harder to KO
• Recover- Good for tight situations
• Aqua Ring- Will do additional healing each turn
• An attack of your choice. (Water Pulse is a good move to have as it has a decent chance to confuse the target.)

It will be very difficult to KO if it isn't KO'd on the first turn.

Comments

i'd like to point out that scald also works in the place of water pulse for any using this set.

Answer 8

Milotic@Leftovers
Ability:Marvel Scale
Evs:96Hp/160SpAtk/252SpDef
Nature:Modest
-Surf
-Ice beam
-Mirror Coat
-Recover

Modest nature is for sweeping but Milotic can wall special hits also. Surf for stab and Ice beam for good coverage except water types. Mirror coat is to destroy special attackers since it will most likely not get KOed even by a stab super effective move. Then recover those damages taken and repeat this process over and over to kill special attackers. Predictability is important here, might not work all the time.

Answer 9

RAAHHH!!! Why can't he learn calm mind?!?!!?!?

Whew, here we go.

Milotic

Nature:Calm/Modest
EVs: Sp.Attack,252/Sp.Defense,252/HP4
Ability:Marvel Scale
Item: Lum Berry (Ya know, just in case...)

This set is pretty similar to the others... but I might as well.

Moveset:

-Scald (for burning and stab and to cripple threatening physical attackers)

-Ice Beam (For the grass and flying types)

-Dragon Pulse (I'll explain in a minute)

-Recover (Ermm... to... recover)

Alright, so you're probably thinking WHY WOULD YOU HAVE ICE BEAM AND DRAGON PULSE?!?!?!? Well, the answer is kingdra. I am sick of facing him and Ice Beam just does not do the job!

Answer 10

Here's my Suggestion for a Physically defensive Milotic:

Bold Nature
Item: Leftovers
Ability: Marvel Scale
EVs: 252 Def 252 HP 4 Sp. Atk.

Moves
-Scald STAB and chance to burn 30%
-Confuse Ray Annoy the foe basically so they can't attack, and they can do damage to themselves
-Aqua Ring Boost your HP each turn gradually along with leftovers
-Double Team Annoy the foe so that they can't hit whilst you restore HP with Aqua Ring & Leftovers

So, here's out it goes, makes you Physically bulky on the Defensive side and even though Milotic doesn't have the greatest Defense in the meta-game at only Base 79, it can still be trained pretty well with it's ability: Marvel Scale to excel it's Defense by 50% when Marvel Scale raises the Defense stat by 50% if the Pokémon with this Ability is suffering from a status ailment. Also, you can annoy the opponents so long as they don't come equipped with Taunt or Encore because you don't really want to be locked by only using Scald or using a status move that will potentially cripple Bold Milotic. This can work also if if Pokémon that have Synchronize mostly Psychic Pokémon and Umbreon can give it a burn if it burns the opponent to increase your Defense, very strategic.

Answer 11

Here is a fav.

Milotic @ Leftovers
Marvel Scale
Bold Nature
252 HP/ 252 Def/ 4 SpD

Scald
Rest
Substitute
Ice Beam/Toxic

^-^ I loves this! Scald is for STAB and a great chance to burn the opponent. Substitute is used to help this guy set up. Rest works great after a few Substitutes cause then your defense is 423 making him very hard to break! Ice Beam is for extra coverage, or you can use Toxic to shorten bulky Pokemon's sweeps.

Answer 12

My Milotic:

• Dragon Breath (30% chance paralyzing the target/Egg Move)
• Hail (Hailstorm/TM07)
• Blizzard (10% chance freezing the target/TM14)
• Surf/Toxic/Rest (You choice)
  PS: My Milotic is shinny because I crossed my shinny DITTO with my FEEBAS.

Answer 13

All these movesets are good, but they're forgetting one tiny detail... Milotic's weakness to Electric-Types.
Here's my Milotic:

Ability: Marvel Scale

Nature: Naive

Item: @Flame Orb

Moves:
Scald (STAB, May cause burn, Great accuracy, Coverage against Fire-Types, Rock-Types, and Ground-Types)

Ice Beam (Powerful move, Great accuracy, Coverage against Grass-Types, Dragon-Types, Flying-Types, and Ground-Types)

Bulldoze (Great accuracy, Lowers target Pokémon's speed, Coverage against Electric-Types, Fire-Types, Rock-Types, and Poison-Types)

Facade (Assists ability, Doubles in power due to burn, Great accuracy)

Overall, this is a pretty good moveset and would be strong in any battle whether it's a single, double, triple, or rotation battle.

Answer 14

EVs: Sp. Atk 252, 10 Carbos, 10 HP ups, 6 Iron
Item: Flame Orb ( dunno why y'all didn't suggest this)
Nature: modest

Hydro Pump / Surf
Ice Beam
Hidden Power Electric
Recover

Mixes offense and defense to make a complete tank with def, sp. def, and sweeps with sp. atk! Works amazingly well. Beat Snorlax with this set! HP covers water to water matches, rest, self-explanatory. Enjoy!

Comments

LOL, your EVs are messed up, and what does Flame Orb do for this set?

Also, HP Grass over Electric.

---

flame orb activates milotic's power marvel scale, boosting defence by 50%, while not being affected by the loss of attack from being burned. and recover just counteracts the burn status
