What is a good moveset for Luxray?

0 votes

I've managed to EV train mine so that Sp. Attack and Attack are pretty much equal. It has the ability Intimidate. It knows:

Thunderbolt: Good power, high accuracy, STAB, chance to paralyze, can hit Pokemon using Fly.

Ice Fang: Decent power, chance to cause flinching or freezing, used to deal with Ground types.

Crunch: Good powe, high accuracy, decent chance to lower defense, type coverage.

Return: High power, high accuracy, helps against Pokemon that the other moves aren't very effective against.

Thunderbolt-since yours has SP ATK EVs

light screen-boost special defense

ice fang-cover ground weakness

thunder wave//return-wave if you want to slow down enemies, , return if you don't want to electric moves

I don't think it can learn Reflect.
Crap I meant light screen. But he has decent SP DEF. (even though they are equal

Here's a physical set from Gen 4:

Spark (not very powerful but your only Electric option really)
Ice Fang
Crunch
Superpower

Magnet Rise is a great option - basically gives you zero weaknesses :D You could also replace Spark or Superpower with a status move like Double Team or Toxic or Swagger (with Persim/Lum berry).

My Luxray knows:
Thunderbolt: STAB, great power and accuracy

Ice Fang: cover weakness against ground-type

Crunch: good power and accuracy, chance to lower Sp.Defend

and my favourite, Magnet Rise: prevent super-effective hits against ground move like earthquake for 5 turns. it can be learn in a house in Snowpoint City by shard hunter.
