Yanmega (Life Orb Sweeper)

"SwiftSweep"

Ok so as most of us know already, Yanmega has the ability "Speed Boost," which can potentially make this pokemon out matched when it comes to speed, if the ability is used wisely. Along with its great Sp. Atk base level, and decent speed to begin with, this provides us with a great lead or late game Sp. Atk sweeper. Its stats as shown below show great potential.

So now that we have the above in mind, lets jump right into business.

Item Held: Life Orb

Nature: Modest

Effort Value Spread:

252 Sp. Atk EVs, 252 Spd EVs, and 4HP EVs.

This gives us the average overall stats for this pokemon at:

HP~ 314

Attack~ 169

Defense~208

Sp. Atk~363

Sp. Def~147

Speed~ 289

Along with the following interchangeable moveset:

Protect/Hypnosis

Air Slash

Bug Buzz

Hidden Power Ground/Fire/Ice/Electric

So looking at all we have above, we can sense the potential for this type of pokemon. Now first off with the stats it has overall after the EV spread is invested, we have a very offensive pokemon, with great potential. Starting with Protect for the moveset, this gives us a free speed boost to get the extra advantage and scouting. Hypnosis misses often sadly, so its a risky choice, but is still useful. Air slash is the best stab move on the Special spectrum with a great added secondary effect which goes as well for Bug Buzz. I personally prefer Hidden Power Ground over any other type. This is mainly because it can surprisingly K.O a unsuspecting Heatran with 1 hit from hidden power, with the added boost of the Life Orb.This also rids us of possible walls such as bulky steel types, or threats like rock types and such, of course fire types should not be forgotten neither. But other forms of Hidden Power are worth considering.

So overall, I hope this moveset can be of some use to you! Thanks for reading!
