Lately I've been building a lot of sets for the upcoming OM called Abilimoves, and there are two quirks in the team builder's auto spread generator that make buildings sets with fewer than 4 attacks frustrating. The first is that if you don't get a recommended spread if you have only one or two moves. The second, and the one I find the most baffling, is that if you have three moves, the auto spread generator assumes you have a physical attack in the last slot, leading to stuff like this:
Chansey (F) @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SpA)
IVs: 0 Atk
- Soft-Boiled
- Stealth Rock
- Heal Bell
Heatran @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SpD
Sassy Nature (+SpD, -Spe)
IVs: 0 Atk
- Lava Plume
- Stealth Rock
- Toxic
Gastrodon @ Leftovers
Ability: Storm Drain
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Impish Nature (+Def, -SpA)
- Scald
- Earthquake
- Recover
EDIT: Looks like Gastrodon gives that spread even with four moves. That should still probably be fixed.
Alakazam-Mega @ Alakazite
Ability: Trace
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature (+Spe, -Def)
IVs: 0 Atk
- Psychic
- Focus Blast
- Shadow Ball
I also could have sworn I've seen it give natures that raise one defensive stat and lower the other, but I wasn't able to replicate it.
