What is a good EV spread for a mixed Latios?

Jan. 12, 2015

I was recently traded a 6IV Shiny Latios, but unfortunately, it had a Mild nature. I was thinking it could run a mixed set as a result of this. It’s meant to surprise Heatran and Excadrill switch-ins. This is one set I had in mind, but I’m still unsure. I couldn’t decide between giving it a Scarf, Life Orb, or Latiosite. Suggestions, anyone?

Though Latios isn’t the best on the physical side, it’s somewhat usable. In its mega form, it’s very good! Here’s a recommended moveset for your mixed Latios:

Latios@LatiositeEVs: 252 Attack, 100 Special Attack, 156 SpeedMoveset:Steel Wing (Coverage, especially against Ice, Fairy, and Rock)Draco Meteor/Dragon Pulse (STAB. I recommend Dragon pulse, since it doesn’t lower your Special Attack)Zen Headbutt (STAB. Has a flinch chance and good power)Dragon Dance/Earthquake (Either raise your stats or dish out hits)
