Dragonite & Jirachi - Best Friends Forever

I thought I would mix things up a bit and post two pokemon moveset compilations at ounce, for the best team in pokemon history, Dragonite and Jirachi. They both cover eachother's weaknesses perfectly, and do an amazing job of taking hits in general. Quick sweepers like Jolteon can be a problem, so it is nice to have a special wall handy. Another thing that is so great about this duo, is that both Jirachi and Dragonite are incredibly adaptable. Your opponent will have no idea what to expect.










Paraflinch

252 Atk/252 Hp/252 Def
Adamant Nature

-Thunder Wave
-Iron Head
-Fire Punch/Zen Headbutt
-Wish/Substitute

With paralysis and the 60% chance of flinch from Iron Head, the opponent has a whopping 30% chance to attack. Use this to annoy the opponent to death. I'm not fond of this set, but it does work.

Calm Mind
Jirachi@leftovers/life orb
252 SpA/168 Spe/88 Hp
Modest Nature

-Calm Mind
-Psychic
-Thunderbolt
-Wish/Hidden Power Ice

The EVs give you your best bet at outspeeding and 2HKOing standard stealth rock lead Heatran with Thunderbolt. With a life orb, you can be sure to beat Heatran. Watch out for scarfed or extra specially defensive variants.

Offensive Wish Support
Jirachi@Leftovers
252 Hp/164 SpD/92 Def
Calm Nature

-Wish
-Psychic
-Thunderbolt
-Protect

I love this set. It works very well on a team that requires a pokemon to set up wish, but not a pokemon to be a wall. Set up wishes for yourself and teammates, and if they switch into a counter that can't do more than 50% damage to you, just Wish-Protect until they either run of PP for the move that is super effective on you, or you get to an Hp level where you can safely attack.

Duel Screens

-Reflect
-Wish
-U-turn

Very simple. Set up screens. Prepare wish. Switch out. Benefits all types of teams.
