Mine knows:

Cross Chop: High power, good chance for critical hit.

Strength: Good power, high accuracy, STAB.

Rock Tomb: Lowers foe's Speed.

Aerial Ace: Decent power, doesn't miss, used to deal with fighting types.

Yes thats a pretty good moveset But WHERE THE HECK IS EARTHQUAKE!! REPLACE ROCK TOMB WITH IT IMMEDIATLY, I ORDER YOU! Stone edge is a good move too, if Areal ace isnt working very well.

I really am glad I have people to trade me their Earthquake TMs.
Aerial Ace does work quite well actually. It might be one of my favorite moves.
Too bad I ran out, but I guess I can send the 1 I have left in emerald. Im not going to use it.
Too bad you don't have Wi-Fi. I could trade you a carrier Pokemon (low level Pokemon that you can catch at the start of the game, used when trading Pokemon for starting over or giving items.) I could get you a Sentret with Earthquake attached.
Yeah, and unfortunatley im probably never going to get it.
That is a really good moveset, but why not replace strength with return? It has more base power(if at full happiness) and the same accuracy.

Wow dude, this is a great moveset! The only thing I'd change is to switch Rock Tomb with Stone Edge or swords Dance.

Other than that, you know Ursaring's fighting style, you've got STAB, coverage against your weakness, along with other types, and you've got strong attacks to boot.

Great job!

EDIT: Oops, sorry Swampert. :}

I still want people to answer even after I have chosen the best answer. I can change my mind if I see an even better moveset.

Haha, that's basically the set I was about to post...
Why not crunch instead of night slash?

Ursaring (M) @ Toxic Orb

Role: Status Sweeper

Trait: Quick Feet

EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd

Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)

  • Protect
  • Facade
  • ThunderPunch
  • Ice Punch

My Favorite Pokemon!

Quick Feet allows you to actually outspeed things, Yay for that!
Protect lets you make sure you get that boost in there safely, and then Facade gets beastly STAB while T-Punch and I-Punch get that ever so coveted Bolt Beamer Coverage.

the best moveset for ursaring would be:

Ability: Quick feet

held item: toxic orb (not flame orb!!!!! I don't know what all these other people are going on about saying to have him hold a flame orb, because that halves his attack!)

Swords dance: Obviously to boost his already high attack and make him a machine!!
Facade: best move this guy can learn! with stab boost plus the boost he gets from the status problem it makes the power effectively 210! with 100% accuracy! NOT BAD! plus with a boost from swords dance it can own nearly anything in a single move! :)
earthquake: well, it is just simply a boss move! great coverage too.
and to finish it off the last slot is filled with stone edge: basically for the same reason as earthquake.

oh, and i forgot to mention nature and ev's.
obviously you would go for an adament nature to max that attack and drop the unnecessary sp.atk.

i would suggest to max out the attack stat placing the max 252 ev's there, and chucking the rest in either hp or evenly in the defences, or you could choose to max one, but leaving around 40 evs for speed, just so you can get that tiny extra bonus that that with quick feet you can out speed pretty much everything, not just most things.

hope that helped! :D

Protect/Swords Dance -Gives him a turn to activate his item and safely ensure guts. Or if you want to be a real gambler, you could run a high risk, high reward Swords Dance.

Facade-Self explanatory

Crunch covers ghost types

Close Combat-Covers rock and steel types, and is a pretty great move in general.

Suggested Ability: Guts
Suggested item: Flame orb
