    Hello everyone! I'm a relatively new member to the forums, but I hope to become much more active over the next couple of months. This is the first thread I have started, so I'm sorry if it isn't really in the right format or whatever. This is basically just a thread where you can post any interesting sets or gimmicks which you have found to be, if not all that great, at least vaguely entertaining. I'm something of a practicioner of lures, gimmicks and suprises, so I'll be happy to take any suggestions you have and try them out! Here's one of my own, just to get things started:

    Togekiss@Choice band
    Hustle
    Adamant nature
    252 Attack, 252 HP
    Extremespeed
    Aerial Ace
    Brick Break
    Trick

    This guy is immensely fun to use. Blissey switch ins are 2HKO'ed every time by Brick Break or Extremespeed, and Aerial Ace negates the accuracy loss from Hustle. It can also 1HKO Gengar and Azelf. Extremespeed deals upwards of 60% to most Salamence, meaning it can revenge kill after residual damage. Trick completely screws over Heatran and Rotom switch ins. Basically, this is just a fun set, but is actually suprisingly effective used correctly.
    Thanks for reading!

    Hey, I love gimmick sets. :D

    Speaking of Togekiss, since it's my favorite Pokemon I've tried every gimmick in the book with it. My favorite gimmick set is the traditional Paraflincher, but with Psycho Shift placed over Aura Sphere to make it an interesting anti-wall.
