Yo. In my second Platinum team (yes, I said second, I have two platinums, so don't ask), I'm raising a different team from scratch. One of my teammates is Lucario. However, I'm a little stuck on a fourth move in his movepool. Let me list him first.
Lucario
Gender: Male
Level: 40
Held Item: King's Rock
Nature: Lax
Personality: Somewhat Vain
HP: 118
Attack: 95
Defense: 86
Sp. Attack: 103
Sp. Defense: 71
Speed: 86
Ability: Inner Focus
Attacks:
Force Palm
Flash Cannon
Dark Pulse
Aura Sphere
I am about to face Mars at Lake Verity, so I'm trying to level my Lucario up to 50 before I do (the rest of my team is already at 49-50, and he's the new guy). What I want is a move to replace Force Palm. Given my stats, a Special move would work best, but I'm debating if I should give him one Physical move just in case. I need some help. I have a few ideas of moves to use, but I'm not sure what I want. Some will become available after the Icicle Badge, but I'm trying to plan ahead. My key is to have at least one move that can trump one of Lucario's weaknesses. My other Lucario has Water Pulse, but I'm saving this Platinum's Water Pulse for my soon-to-be Glaceon. So any help would be nice. My choosen moves are as followed: (note, these are either TMs, natural moves, or tutors available).
1) Close Combat
2) Ice Punch
3) Psychic
4) Shadow Claw
5) Zen Headbutt
6) Return
7) Brick Break
8) Focus Blast
9) Dragon Pulse
I'm not sure what would be best here. The first four I'm more keen on, but I can't quite get a good idea. So, any help would be best. Or, if you have any other suggestions, do state them. But remember, I have yet to get to Snowpoint City in this Platinum, and I don't want to waste time trying to breed moves, so try to keep it in a range I can access at the moment. Thanks.
