This is right up my alley. Don't worry about it though, Shaymin has a horrible move range. It learns such few move types. Try one of these movesets, two for each form, in order from best to worst for each form.

Base Form:

  1. Offensive Status
    Seed Flare: High power, 40% chance to lower Sp. Def, STAB.
    Grasswhistle: Puts the foe to Sleep.
    Leech Seed: Damages the foe while healing Shaymin.
    Psychic: Good power, high accuracy, chance to lower Sp. Def, deals with Poison and Fighting types.

  2. Helper
    Seed Flare: High power, 40% chance to lower Sp. Def, STAB.
    Rest: Fully heals Shaymin, who ca then switch out and get rid of the Sleep with Natual Cure.
    Sweet Kiss: Confuses the foe.
    Aromatherapy: Removes Status conditions for your team.

Sky Form:

  1. Offensive Power
    Seed Flare: High power, 80% chance to lower Sp. Def with Serene Grace, STAB, better accuracy than someother moves of equal or lesser damage, deals with Rock types.
    Air Slash: Decent power, 60% chance to cause flinching with Serene Grace, decent accuracy,STAB, deals wit Grass types.
    Earth Power: Good poer, high accuracy, 20% chance to lower Sp. Def with Serene Grace, deals with Fire, Steel, Rock, and Poison types.
    Synthesis: Heals Shaymin.

2.
Seed Flare: High power, 80% chance to lower Sp. Def with Serene Grace, STAB, better accuracy than someother moves of equal or lesser damage, deals with Rock types.
Sweet Kiss: Confuses the foe.
Air Slash: Decent power, 60% chance to cause flinching with Serene Grace, decent accuracy,STAB, deals wit Grass types.
Synthesis: Heals Shaymin.

Seed-flare
Leech-seed

Synthesis/Substitute


Seed-flare is STAB. Leech-seed is healing and stalling. Toxic is for stalling. Synthesis is for healing while Substitute would be for more stalling.
