Ability Competitive

What about a Special Wall Tank using Assault Vest?

Milotic @ Assault Vest
Trait: Competitive
EVs: 248 HP / 252 SAtk / 8 SDef
Modest Nature
- Hydro Pump / Surf / Scald
- Ice Beam / Blizzard
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Mirror Coat / Surf / Scald

EVs to give Milotic an odd # of HP for SR, max SAtk, and a little added bulk to go with it's base 125 SDef. Competitive activates and boosts Milotic's SAtk to a very nice 656. First slot comes down to wanting power, accuracy, or chance to status. Ice Beam for coverage, but can run Blizzard if you want to risk it. HP Fire to cover Steel types that wall this set. Last slot you could either go Mirror Coat (which is a Special Attack) to use your bulk against your opponent, or Surf/Scald if you went Hydro Pump with your first slot for an accurate alternative.
Maybe you could slash Dragon Pulse in there somewhere if you wanted a solid base 90 attack, but I feel with Ice Beam/Blizzard being there to stop Dragons, it's kind of pointless.

It feels like such a waste to use Assault Vest on something that gets Recover...

Milotic is a pretty solid competitive user when paired with deoxys or klefki. The opposing player has to decide between hazards on the field or a plus two milotic that can one or two shot almost any defog user.

Too bad that, in OU at least, none of the users of Competitive are very
(puts on shades)
competitive.

YEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

I dont understand, wasnt this the main milotic set anyway? Its basically the only way to run milotic without getting outclassed by suicune last gen. If you want to use competitive you want to probably use a set with recover Id think.

It was the main set, but Rest-Talk sets were nerfed in Gen V because of the broken sleep mechanics. Now that they work as they used to Milotic is more reliable. This coupled with Competitive kind of justifies to open a Milotic thread... This thread is pretty much about Milotic anyways.
