RM Mixrachi

Hey guys! I've grown a liking for Jirachi and decided to make a build of my own. So I made this set this morning before I was about to go to school and I noticed nobody uses a mixed sweeping Jirachi although it as a great move pool and stats so here goes.

Jirachi @ Life Orb (Open to suggestions here)
Hasty/Naive (May also need modification)
EVs: 252 Spe/180 Sp.A/ 76 Atk (EVs may need modification)

-Ice Punch/Iron Head
-Psychic/Grass Knot
-Fire Punch/Iron Head
-Thunderbolt

Okay! So, psychic is my primary stab move, it gives good coverage and I don't have to fear fighting types that much. Fire punch will kill my bug weakness. Ice punch provides good coverage and takes care of my ground weakness. I'm not sure about thunderbolt but maybe it can help me set up on a pokemon. I know ghost, dark, and fire are threats for me but I'm not really worried about that. So thanks for reading; constructive criticism is much appreciated!

jirachi is not weack to fighting,ice,rock,and esspecially poison but anyway it seems good you should chose naive nature and swich attack ev with sp attack ev your special attacks have higher bp so you should invest more in elemental punches

You may want Iron Head so you can deal hits and get nothing dealt back. (The High Flinch Chance)

I mixed them up, you're right and I was thinking Naive as well but I'm not sure about the EVs. If others agree with you then I'll change it, thanks.

Get a choice scarf and iron head to get flinches and maybe u-turn for scouting

Keep in mind this is a mixed sweeper I don't know how it would work with iron head and u-turn, it'd be more like a lead.

oh I forgot, well then maybe a life orb? with life orb all your moves will get boosted enough to be a mixed sweeper

I know Psychic has STAB, but it doesn't cover a lot in OU. There's hardly any Posion types running around OU and the only fighting type worth mentioning is Machamp, so replace it with Grass Knot, since Swampert is a common switch in for Jirachi. Also, if you manage to incorporate Iron Head in the set, use Expert Belt so you can bluff the Iron Head and bring in the common switch ins, such as Swampert and Gyarados, and hit them with a hard-smacking Grass Knot or Thunderbolt.

i would take thunderbolt away and add an atk good against fire...
but thats just my opinion!

It's hard choice, I want to keep this a mixed sweeper and not physical so I'm trying to keep a balance of special and physical moves while getting coverage..Help!

mayby energy ball instead of grass knot with its ability it has preety high chance of getting spdef drop

I wont choose scarf because they can switch into a good counter and get 1 free turn for setup

example: tunderbolt on gyra, he switches into a ground and gets 1 free turn because you need to switch

I don't think Jirachi can learn energy ball.
