What is a good moveset for Dusknoir? (page 2)

Perhaps the only Pokemon I considered to be evil (except for Darkrai and for Dusknoir, until Explorers of Sky.) Mine knows:

Will-o-wisp: Burns the foe, lowering attack as well.

Earthquake

Thunderpunch: Decent power, high accuracy, chance to paralyze. Deals with Water types and Flying types.

Pain Split: Heals Dusknoir and damages the foe.

Which elemental punch should I use?
Or has a better use in wifi, like ice punch for those annoying dragons.
Dusclops (M) @ Evolution Stone
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 16 Def / 240 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Will-O-Wisp
- Pain Split
- Night Shade
- Confuse Ray
May I suggest replacing painsplit or will-o-wisp with gravity, thus meaning you can deal with flying and pokemon with levitate using Earthquake.
why not focus - room trick

My Dusknoir ShadowBlast Combo (which hardly anyone uses)!

Nature: Bold

Held Item: Leftovers

EVs: 252 Def 252 SpA 4 HP

Moves

  • Shadow Ball
  • Charge Beam
  • Focus Blast
  • Calm Mind

Ok, so here's how it goes: You're already bulky in defense which would be at 405 with perfect 252 EVs and 31 IVs in Defense. That only leaves your Sp. Atk & Sp. Def to rely on the boosts of Calm Mind and Charge Beam for Sp. Atk. Shadow Ball is STAB and Focus Blast is immense coverage which compliments the ShadowBlast combo. Leftovers is there so you can stay in the field while boosting your stats as well as lowering your opponents.
