Is Mismagius worth it?

Feb. 1, 2015

I really wanna use one but don’t know whether it’s worth it or not.

Overall:Mismagius, I’m sorry to say, is a wannabe Gengar. There’s nothing it can do that Gengar can’t do better. Gengar’s got higher Special Defense, Special Attack, and Speed, and literally the exact same movepool. So I don’t think there’s any reason to use it over Gengar.

EDIT: The only, only thing that Mismagius has over Gengar is Nasty Plot. (Creds to Your Worst Nightmare.) Here’s a set to capitalize on that:

Mismagius @ Salac BerryAbility: LevitateTimid NatureEVs: 12 HP / 244 SpA / 252 Spe-Substitute-Nasty Plot-Shadow Ball-Dazzling Gleam

Simple, short, and sweet. The given EVs make the Salac Berry activate after 3 Substitutes. Shadow Ball and Dazzling Gleam are unresisted bar the Litleo line. Sub when you get the chance, Nasty Plot up, and destroy.
