Eviolite Misdreavus or Mismagius?

Question

I got a Misdreavus with fantastic IVs in a trade. Before training it, I want to know if the Eviolite buff on misdreavus is better for it, or if I need to track myself down another Dusk Stone and evolve it.

Answer 1

Mismagius all the way. It has higher stats and can sweep with high speed and a higher special attack stat. The only reason you would want to use misdeivus is in a defensive role, in which it is outclassed by things such as cofagrigus

At least the misdreavus will take a hit

Answer 2

Misdreavus with an eviolite is significantly builkier on the physical side and only loses about 8 base stats in SpD that Mismagius has, if you’re not to concerned about it’s lower speed you should be fine, although I would really only trust it in a support role and dusclops basically does everything misdreavus can do better.

Answer 3

Eviolite misdreavus. It can sweep while it can be bulky, so go with eviolite. Here is a good set for misdreavus:

Misdreavus@Eviolite
Trait: Levitate
EVs: 252 sp. atk, 128 def, 128 sp. def
Timid nature
Moves:
Thunderbolt
Will-O-Wisp
Shadow Ball
Nasty Plot

Hope I helped!

Mismagius can use that set significantly better, there's really no reason to run that.....
