Ability: Stakeout
EVs: 236 SpA / 236 Spe / 36 HP
IVs: 0 Atk
Timid Nature

- Mud Shot
- Nasty Plot
- Taunt / Round

Answer 2

Nickit @ Life Orb / Eviolite
Ability: Stakeout
EVs: 240 Atk / 200 Spe / 68 HP
IVs: 0 SpA
Jolly Nature
- Play Rough (to counter Fighting)
- Howl / Taunt
- Knock Off (will get rid of troublesome items helping your opponent)
- Sucker Punch

This is my first moveset answer, sorry if I did something against the rules. Both Howl and Taunt are good status moves, especially in Competitive.

Comments

the evs need improvements. snarl is special attack, and you used a nature that lowers special attack. dig sucks because someone can switch into something that resists it, or is immune.

---

I realized that, and fixed it.

---

Also, are you saying Dig is bad, because in that case, the same could be said for your mud shot, if not, sorry, I misunderstood.

---

Mud Shot is its only coverage, the only other things it gets are normal moves. Also, Sucker Punch and Knock Off outclass Night Slash and Assurance.

---

Ground type moves don't cover it's three weaknesses. At least, I'm pretty sure they don't.

---

It beats magnemite, and helps with other pokemon.

---

Dig is a 2 turn attack, which can also help set up sweepers tank its weak attack and then sweep.

---

Okay, I'll fix it, Also, I fixed the EVs so they'd match up to the most points possible without waisting.(turned 70 to 68)

---

I fixed it, it has knock off now instead.

---

Sucker Punch is better than Assurance. Also you could possibly use some other move over Night Slash.

---

Maybe Howl and Taunt could replace Lash Out or Beat Up? It really doesn't get a good physical movepool.
