anyone suggest another move?

Latios learnset

Answer 1

I would go for a moveset like this:

EVs: SpAtk/Speed split
Nature: Timid

• Psychic (STAB)
• Ice Beam (Dragon Pulse gets STAB but IB gets more coverage, including 4x advantage over most other dragons)
• Surf (gets a lot of neutral coverage and is generally awesome)
• Thunderbolt (for last bit of coverage) or Recover

Comments

This is a really good set for coverage, It is at minimum neutral to everyone

---

Hmm what about psyshock and Modest nature instead? Psyshock targets the opponent's defense stat so Blissey is one shotted with this move.

Answer 2

Good moves for Latios to learn:

Dragon Pulse/Draco Meteor
Psychic/Luster Purge
Calm Mind
Thunder
Recover
Grass Knot
Memento

Latios has already been done for moveset so you can just look on this site for more precise movesets.

Answer 3

First off, don't train him on attack power. You have no physical moves so attack power is bad, and he has really good special attack power.

Dragon pulse,
psychic,
calm mind,
recover.

Answer 4

Latios@ Soul Dew(the best item for the eons)
Trait: Levitate (you have no other choices)
EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd
Timid Nature(+Spd, -Atk)

-Psychic (Stab)
-Shadow Ball/Ice Beam/Thunder Bolt
-Recover (recovery of course)
-Dragon Pulse (Stab)

with recover in the play latios will be better.

Answer 6

Gen V

Latios (M) @ Soul Dew

Trait: Levitate

EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd

Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)

• Thunderbolt
• Ice Beam
• Draco Meteor
• Psyshock

Answer 7

Latios:

• Draco Meteor-STAB; does massive amounts of damage with very little able to withstand it.
• Surf-Gives type coverage; gets powered up by the rain.
• Psyshock-STAB; lets him hit physically despite being a special sweeper.
• Hidden Power[Fire]-Breaks through steel types like Ferrothorn and Scizor.

Answer 8

Latios @ Life Orb

EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe

Timid nature

• Draco Meteor
• Hidden Power Fire
• Surf
• Recover

Draco Meteor is STAB, and does quite a bit of damage to most things and the Life Orb is a bonus.
Hidden Power Fire is for obstacles like Ferrothorn and Forretress, but it most Steel types like Jirachi for decent damage.
Surf hits Heatran for decent damage, and helps round out the coverage.
Recover is nice for recovering off Life Orb damage and attacks from the opponent.

Speed EVs??

Crap lol, I don't know what happened there!
Thanks for pointing out.

Answer 9

Latios @ Dragon Scale/Fang
Trait:Mild
Ability:Levitate

Dragon Breath/Dragon Pulse - pair up with Dragon Scale/Fang (STAB)
Recover - to annoy your enemy(to recover of course)
Protect - to avoid super-effective moves
Luster Purge - His Signature move good for trainer battles

as you can see my Latios is more on special attack to avoid contact(ex. if your enemy has static,flame body ability) and Latios is a great tank and completely immune to ground attacks (except with Gravity)

Answer 10

Latios - Life orb
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Mild
EVs: Attack and Speed are maxed.
Role: You'll see in a minute that he's my set up sweeper carrying Dragon Dance. This is why. With 110 base speed he can out speed even scarfed Salamence. Making him ideal for this sort of thing. He can also carry a Flamethrower strong enough to take down Skarmory, Scizor, Forretress, and Ferrothorn without much trouble. And because he has enough special attack to use HP Fire, he doesn't have to bother with the low accuracy of Fire Blast. I really like using this guy because of these things.

He knows Dragon Dance, Outrage, Hidden Power {Fire}, and Earthquake.

Comments

Latios can't learn Flamethrower...
Which the mod/editor who let this through should have known and commented upon as soon as the set was posted.

---

Just like his RMT, I edited this to HP Fire until he thinks of some replacement for it.
