Answer 1

Double/Triple Battle

Seaking (M) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Lightningrod
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Blizzard
- Surf
- Signal Beam
- Hidden Power [Electric]

Have a teammate with Discharge in order for this to work. It will boost your Special Attack thanks to Lightningrod (which also protects your team). Blizzard hits multiple foes. Surf does too, but it also gets STAB. Signal Beam and HP Electric are coverage.

Answer 2

Gen 8 PU
Seaking @ Focus Sash
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Waterfall
- Drill Run
- Knock Off

You start off with Swords Dance to double your attack stat. Waterfall is STAB. Drill Run is for Electric types. Knock Off is to knock items off of your opponent. It's best that this set is used during Rain Dance so Swift Swim can activate, giving Seaking a speed of 470 during rain Dance.

Answer 3

Gen 8 ZU

Seaking @ Choice Band
Ability: Swift Swim
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Waterfall
- Drill Run
- Knock Off
- Flip Turn

Answer 4

Gen V

Seaking (M) @ Life Orb

Trait: Swift Swim

EVs: 32 HP / 252 Atk / 28 SDef / 196 Spd

Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)

• Waterfall
• Megahorn
• Knock Off
• Body Slam

Yeah, it gets Lightningrod. So what? Your Special Attack stat is bad, and you'll still have a bad speed stat. At least you have some sweeping capabilities with Swift Swim. Waterfall provides STAB, and can do nice damage in the Rain. Megahorn has high base power. Body Slam is there because since there is no Instant Rain in NU, it's going to run out, so you'll have to use paralysis to outspeed the foe. Knock Off is just to annoy the foe. Your EVs max out your Attack and give you enough Speed for use with Swift Swim and Body Slam. Life Orb is needed though to do much damage. The EVs also give a tiny bit of bulk to use.

Answer 5

Seaking (M) @ Life Orb

Role: Special Sweeper

Trait: Lightningrod

EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd

Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)

• Agility
• Hydro Pump
• Ice Beam
• Signal Beam

---

Whoa there, I caught a big one!

This guy relies on prediction, you switch in on a predictable Electric type move ( Lets just hope it isn't volt Switch ) so now your opponent gets mad, and switches.

Use Agility on that turn.

Now you have a very useable Special Sweeper, with Hydro Pump ( You really need that extra power here due to him still not having the best Sp Atk even with Lightning Rod. )

And Ice beam and Signal Beam for awesome coverage!

Answer 6

Seaking (M) @ Life Orb

Trait: Lightningrod

EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd

Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)

• Agility
• Surf
• Ice Beam
• Signal Beam

Answer 7

There are two movesets what will be suit for Seaking, (in my opinion) enjoy!

Seaking @
Trait: Swift Swim
Adamant Nature
EVs: 252 Attack, 252 Defense, 4 HP
Moves:
- Rain Dance
- Waterfall
- Megahorn
- Poison Jab

(the EV spread is like this because, with this ability, with Rain Dance, it will double speed, and, also, it has bad defense so a little defense won't hurt)

Seaking @
Trait: Lightning Rod
Jolly Nature
EV: 252 Attack, 252 Speed, 4 HP
Moves:
- Waterfall
- Megahorn
- Poison Jab
- Smart Strike/Bounce/Throat Chop/Drill Run

(I recommending bounce because it will can defend from grass types but others is good too)

Comments

You need items as well

Answer 8

Trait: Lightning Rod
EVs: 252 attack, 252 speed, 4 HP
Nature: Jolly
Moves:
Waterfall
Megahorn
Knock Off
Drill Run

Answer 9

Seaking @ Leftovers
Ability: Lightning Rod
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Drill Run
- Waterfall
- Poison Jab
- Megahorn

Answer 10

Gen 8 ZU

Seaking @ Choice Band / Choice Scarf
Ability: Lightning Rod
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant / Jolly Nature

• Waterfall
• Knock Off
• Megahorn
• Flip Turn

This is one of those Pokemon that I forgot even existed for a while. Waterfall is STAB. Knock Off is item removal. Megahorn covers Grass types. Flip Turn is for pivoting, and has decent power backing it up. No Drill Run here because Seaking has Lightning Rod so it isn't really needed.

Answer 11

Seaking @ mystic water
ability - swift swim
252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 Sp
