  1. Competitive: This Pokemon's SpAtk is raised by 2 for each of it's stats that is lowered by a foe
  2.  
  3. Intimidate is everywhere in Smogon doubles and is the main reason that Defiant (the physical variant of Competitive) Bisharp is so popular and powerful, however the problem is that Bisharp (and other less common Defiant users) are weak to the most common intimidators: Landorus-T, Hitmontop, and Scrafty.
  4. Different competitive users can handle all of these threats, I've gone ahead and listed EV spreads as well as movesets that I reccomend for each competitive user. I've also included points that list the advantages of using each Pokemon, and explain the choices I've made in the set. Enjoy!

  6. Marvel sKale (Milotic) @ Sitrus Berry
  7. Ability: Competitive
  8. EVs: 196 HP / 4 Def / 252 SAtk / 56 Spd
  9. Modest Nature
  10. - Scald
  11. - Ice Beam
  12. - Protect
  13. - Confuse Ray / Icy Wind
  14. 1. Speed Evs to outspeed Heatran that have themselves been EVd to outspeed Rotom-W, maximum Special attack, 196 HP to hit an HP stat divisble by 4 for maximum Sitrus Berry recovery, and the remaining 4 EVs in Defence
  15. 2. Ice Beam for Lando-T
  16. 3. Scald for STAB + a chance to burn which is nice, especially vs Hitmontop and/or Scrafty
  17. 4 Confuse Ray or Icy Wind for Utility
  18.  
  19. Tough Kale (Wigglytuff) @ Sitrus Berry
  20. Ability: Competitive
  21. EVs: 208 Spd / 252 HP / 48 Def
  22. Bold Nature
  23. - Protect
  24. - Thunder Wave / Helping Hand / Heal Pulse / Icy Wind / incinerate

  26. - Ice Beam
  27.  
  28. 1. Dazzling Gleam at +1 will always OHKO scrafty, and will 2HKO Hitmontop even at max+ Special attack. Enough speed to outspeed 4 speed hitmontop and max HP with the rest into physical Def
  29. 2. Utility move is up to you, there are more options available however another coverage move can be used as well
  30. 3. +1 ice beam will always OHKO Lando-T
  31.  
  32. Gothitelle and Meowstic-F also get access to competitive, but Gothitelle is better used as a Shadow Tag trapper, and Meowstic-F cannot hit Scrafty or Landorus-T very hard even at +1.
