This is the best plan ever. Maybe.

Ursaring @ Flame Orb
Ability: Guts
Facade
ThunderPunch
Ice Punch
EQ

I'm only using this for fun, like against friends in a casual battle or in the Battle Tower. The idea is, is that once Flame Orb kicks in, Guts is activated as well. Therefore, EQ goes up to 150 base power, the punches (used as a physical boltbeam) go up to 112, and because Facade is doubled under the burn, and it gets STAB, it goes up to 315. Wow.

70 (Base Power of Facade) x 2 (Facade's boost from Burn) x 1.5 (STAB) x 1.5 (Guts) = 315.

How's it look? Could this plan be incredibly powerful or incredbily stupid?

what are it's EVs and Nature? or do you not use them?

 

[Golbat-Man]

I use them; I'm just considering the idea of this set. We all know that since Ursaring as a base 130 Attack, everything will try to be geared toward that stat. But like I said, this isn't going to be used for real serious stuff, so I'm not considering things like tiers.

 

[DRWS!]

It'd probably be better with Quick Feet.. as just about anything can outspeed it.

 

[Golbat-Man]

Yeah, but then the flame orb lowers the attack stat, since there's no Guts boost.

 

[DerMißingno]

So use a toxic orb.

 

[Golbat-Man]

True. But I do have a Focus Sash Ambipom, as well, with Fake Out and Last Resort. I could just take off Last Resort and replace it with Double Hit, Agility, and Baton Pass, so I could BP Agility to Ursaring.

 

[DerMißingno]

You could throw Swords Dance on there too just for fun, if you think you could pull it off.

I just looked on Smogon, and here's what they recommend for this strategy. I'm inclined to agree with them, because this looks like it could be very effective.

Ursaring @ toxic orb
Jolly
Quick feet
6 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
-Facade
-Earthquake / Close Combat
-Crunch / Fire Punch
-Swords Dance

You sacrifice the Guts boost, but if you get off a swords dance it won't matter. It also may be possible to out speed something with this set.
