Moveset e set competitivi di Jumpluff

Moves U-turn lets Jumpluff pivot out to other team members after it uses Sleep Powder and punish switches from the opponent. Acrobatics is Jumpluff's strongest STAB attack, hitting Fighting- and Grass-type Pokemon such as Crabominable, Hitmonchan, and Victreebel quite hard. Sleep Powder eases setup for Jumpluff's teammates and shuts down slower foes such as Mudsdale. Memento cripples the foe and provides a teammate such as Carracosta or Simisear with a setup opportunity. Seed Bomb can be used over Memento to hit bulky Water- and Ground-types such as Lanturn, Jellicent, Mudsdale, and Gastrodon for super effective damage, but Memento is almost always better because Jumpluff is very weak. Set Details No item is used to double Acrobatics's power, and Infiltrator allows Jumpluff to hit Pokemon that commonly run Substitute such as Haunter. Usage Tips Jumpluff will generally come onto the field a few times and use Sleep Powder or pivot around the opposing team before it uses Memento. Jumpluff should use Sleep Powder to incapacitate slower foes like Eelektross or pivot out on its checks like Alolan Sandslash, with U-turn being opted before Memento. Be wary of using Sleep Powder if the opponent has Pokemon immune to it such as Drampa and Ferroseed, as it will ruin your momentum. Try switching Jumpluff in on resisted attacks from passive Pokemon such as Qwilfish and Gastrodon, since you can shut them down with Sleep Powder. If the opponent has a Grass-type or you predict an obvious switch to one of Jumpluff's checks like Aggron, use U-turn to keep up momentum. Once Jumpluff is low on health and has supported the team, you can sacrifice it by going for Memento to give free setup to a teammate like Dodrio or Carracosta. Team Options Jumpluff will likely be doing a good bit of pivoting in and out throughout the match with U-turn, so entry hazard removal is beneficial to ensure it doesn't get worn down. Hitmonchan in particular is a good partner for Jumpluff because it can offensively check Ice-, Steel-, and Fire-types such as Abomasnow, Aggron, and Simisear for Jumpluff. Setup sweepers such as Jynx and Omastar are also good teammates because they appreciate the Memento support that Jumpluff provides making setup easier. Other Pokemon with Volt Switch or U-turn, pair well with Jumpluff; the likes of Eelektross and Silvally-Fairy complete good VoltTurn cores. Eelektross soft checks a lot of special attackers and provides Knock Off support along with ways to deal with Pokemon such as Lanturn and Regirock. Silvally-Fairy on the other hand offers Defog support and a secondary resistance to Fighting-types like Hitmonchan that Jumpluff can't consistently check. Lastly, Jumpluff struggles immensely with Ice-type Pokemon, so a teammate that can handle the likes of Aurorus and Abomasnow such as Assault Vest Crabominable or Combusken is appreciated.

Moves Strength Sap provides Jumpluff with a form of recovery that also lowers the opposing Pokemon's Attack by one stage, giving it the ability to more consistently check Gurdurr, remain healthy while attempting to sweep, and play around Sucker Punch users like Absol. Sleep Powder lets Jumpluff cripple switch-ins like Aggron, Oricorio-E, and Alolan Sandslash, which can give it an easier time setting up or recovering as well as potentially generate a free turn for a teammate. Acrobatics is the preferred STAB move due to its high power and better coverage compared to a Grass-type move. Set Details By not holding an item, the Base Power of Acrobatics instantly doubles. Infiltrator allows Jumpluff to bypass the Substitutes of Pokemon like Haunter, Jynx, and Crabominable, which can be useful for preventing them from getting out of hand. Usage Tips Early- and mid-game is when Jumpluff should focus on crippling foes with Sleep Powder, sustaining itself with Strength Sap, and gradually wearing the opposing team down with Acrobatics. Jumpluff lacks the bulk necessary to switch into neutral attacks as well as reliably double switch, so it should primarily come in on Pokemon like Gurdurr or after a teammate has been KOed. Although Jumpluff can switch in on resisted attacks from Pokemon like Hitmonchan and Primeape, it should only do so if absolutely necessary, as they can easily take it out with their super effective or powerful neutral coverage moves. Waiting until physically bulky foes and Flying-resistant Pokemon like Alolan Sandslash and Oricorio-E have been either removed or heavily damaged is ideal, as this gives Jumpluff a greater chance of sweeping the opposing team. Jumpluff should also wait until faster foes like Lycanroc and Choice Scarf Rotom-F have been taken out, as they can quickly end its sweep. Certain Grass-types such as Lurantis as well as other Pokemon such as Primeape locked into Close Combat often make for perfect setup fodder. If necessary, predicting switches and using Sleep Powder as an opposing Pokemon like Skuntank comes in can ease setup. If possible, try to preserve Jumpluff against offensive teams, as it can potentially annoy them with Sleep Powder and its solid Speed. Team Options Swords Dance Jumpluff fits best on bulky offensive teams looking for a setup sweeper that can use its great Speed, utility, and support options to annoy playstyles ranging from offense to balance while also keeping Gurdurr in check. Secondary Fighting-type checks like Silvally-Fairy, Qwilfish, and Jellicent can more reliably take on Pokemon like Primeape, Crabominable, and Combusken. Silvally-Fairy can support Jumpluff with Parting Shot and Defog support, while the latter two can pressure bulkier teams with their utility moves. Jumpluff appreciates having bulky Pokemon such as Regirock, Mudsdale, and Gurdurr to sponge priority moves and fall back on against revenge killers like Dodrio, Lycanroc, and Choice Scarf Primeape. Entry hazard removers such as Skuntank, Cryogonal, and Alolan Sandslash are important, as they make Jumpluff less reliant on Strength Sap and allow it to remain as healthy as possible whenever it switches in. Alolan Sandslash can also check Ice-types like Aurorus, dent Rock- and Steel-types with its coverage, and put bulky Pokemon like Sableye on a timer with Toxic. Powerful wallbreakers that also fit on bulky offense like Aurorus, Jellicent, and Stoutland not only allow Jumpluff to sweep more easily but also pick up the slack for it offensively when it can't find a chance to set up. These examples appreciate Jumpluff sponging Knock Off, serving as a soft Fighting-type check, and potentially giving them an easier time switching in with Sleep Powder.

Moves Sleep Powder temporarily incapacitates one of the opponent's Pokemon. Acrobatics works well with Sleep Powder, hitting Grass-types immune to Sleep Powder super effectively. Memento sacrifices Jumpluff and cuts the foe's offenses in half, allowing a teammate to set up safely. U-turn keeps up offensive momentum and allows Jumpluff to potentially bring a teammate on the field safely. It also takes advantage of the switches Jumpluff forces with the threat of Sleep Powder. Seed Bomb is an alternative to let Jumpluff deal significant damage to Flying-resistant Pokemon such as Rhydon, Carracosta, and Lanturn while also enabling Jumpluff to break past Gastrodon. Encore can be used to lock a Pokemon into an unfavorable move such as Shift Gear from Klinklang or Stealth Rock from Steelix, which a teammate can capitalize on. It also prevents Jumpluff from being taken advantage of by various setup sweepers. Encore can be used over U-turn or Memento, both of which snag momentum from the foe, with Memento being one-time use only but offering more opportunities for teammates to set up. Set Details Maximum Speed EVs plus a Jolly nature allow Jumpluff to take full advantage of its good Speed tier, while maximum Attack EVs give Jumpluff an offensive presence, allowing it to inflict decent damage with Acrobatics. Infiltrator allows Jumpluff to hit foes behind a Substitute, most notably letting it put Klinklang behind a Substitute to sleep. No item is used to ensure that Acrobatics is always at full power and also lets Jumpluff take less damage from Knock Off. Usage Tips Jumpluff makes for a decent lead thanks to its access to a fast Sleep Powder, letting it disable a foe early-game. Be wary of using the move if the opponent has a Pokemon immune to Sleep Powder such as Xatu or Magmortar, as it can completely ruin your offensive momentum. Acrobatics should generally be used to get chip damage on the opposing Pokemon as well as hit Grass-types that pivot into Sleep Powder. Memento should be used wisely, as using the move sacrifices Jumpluff, so if there is a threat around that Jumpluff still needs to check, refrain from using it. U-turn is great for keeping up offensive momentum throughout the game and should be used if the opponent has Steel-types such as Steelix and Klinklang. Team Options Setup sweepers that appreciate Memento support pair very well with Jumpluff. Omastar and Barbaracle in particular greatly benefit from it, as they can more easily use Shell Smash. Other setup sweepers such as Swords Dance Samurott and Double Dance Rhydon work as well. Primeape pairs very well with this set, as it breaks past Steel- and Ice-types that give Jumpluff issues such as Klinklang, Mawile, and Aurorus, while Jumpluff can bring in Primeape safely with U-turn. Hitmonchan functions in a similar manner, with its Rapid Spin support being the key difference. Floatzel appreciates U-turn support and can threaten a lot of answers to Jumpluff such as Archeops and Regirock. Assault Vest Magmortar can switch into most Ice-types with little issue and break past other problematic Pokemon such as Klinklang and Mawile.

Jumpluff can fit into sun teams nicely with its ability, Chlorophyll, making it a great candidate for a sun inducer. Sunny Day allows Jumpluff to set up sun and provide support for sun sweepers, such as Exeggutor and Charizard. Sleep Powder can put foes to sleep and potentially allow sun users to sweep the adversary. Encore is also used to allow Jumpluff's partners to have less trouble setting up and lock walls into a less desirable move. Memento sacrifices Jumpluff to weaken the opponent, allowing the following partner to come in for free and set up more easily. Heat Rock increases the duration of Sunny Day, and as such, should be the only item used on this set. The given EV spread allows Jumpluff to switch into Stealth Rock four times at full HP and gives it as much Speed as possible. When Jumpluff is in the sun, Chlorophyll allows it to outspeed the entire unboosted tier. Leaf Guard could be used if status is really hindering Jumpluff's capabilities, but in most cases, Chlorophyll is the superior option. U-turn is an alternative over Memento, allowing Jumpluff to set up sun multiple times over the course of a match. Sun sweepers, such as Exeggutor, Charizard, Victreebel, and Rapidash, are great partners for Jumpluff, as they can take advantage of the sun it offers to capitalize on their respective abilities. Other sun inducers, such as Regirock and Volbeat, should be used along with Jumpluff so that it doesn't have all the weight on its shoulders and to have a reliable backup. Prankster Liepard is a big threat to this set, as it can Taunt Jumpluff before Jumpluff can cripple it. Pokemon that can deal with this threat, such as Sawk and Gurdurr, are great partners. Gurdurr in particular is an excellent partner for Jumpluff, as it can deal with Sap Sipper users and Steel-types, two types of Pokemon Jumpluff despises.

This set is by far Jumpluff's best offensive set. Even without the help of Chlorophyll, Jumpluff can outspeed the majority of the tier, and its decent coverage lets it hit most of NU for at least neutral damage. Acrobatics is Jumpluff's strongest Flying-type STAB move, and its power is increased further when the Flying Gem is used. Seed Bomb is a Grass-type STAB move that hits hard against Rock-types that resist Flying-type attacks. Swords Dance boosts Jumpluff's Attack to acceptable levels and is the center point of the set. Finally, Sleep Powder and Encore both allow Jumpluff to set up more easily but in different ways; specifically, Sleep Powder allows Jumpluff to set up while the opponent is immobilized by sleep, while Encore can force switches, gaining momentum and allowing Jumpluff to set up. The listed EV spread ensures that Jumpluff can Speed tie with Tauros and other max Speed Jumpluff. Substitute can be used in the final moveslot to allow Jumpluff to avoid status conditions and set up safely. Sunny Day support can benefit Jumpluff, as it is able to outspeed the entire unboosted tier with Chlorophyll. Volbeat and Liepard, both of which can also offer U-turn support to Jumpluff, are great sun inducers. Entry hazard support from Pokemon such as Garbodor, Regirock, and Scolipede is vital for allowing Jumpluff to secure extra KOs, such as an OHKO on Tangela after Spikes and Stealth Rock damage. Gurdurr is a great partner for Jumpluff, as it likes the support Jumpluff offers to help it set up with Bulk Up, and it threatens Sap Sipper users and Steel-types, two types of Pokemon that trouble Jumpluff, with Mach Punch and Drain Punch. Hard hitting Ground- and Fighting-types, such as Sawk and Seismitoad, can weaken Steel-types, specifically Metang and Bastiodon, both of which threaten Jumpluff. Finally, Alomomola makes a solid partner, as it is able to take priority and wall threats that Jumpluff can't defeat even with Swords Dance, such as Piloswine and Kangaskhan.

With this set, Jumpluff is more than capable of crippling opponents with its status moves, then switching into a sweeper with U-turn. With Jumpluff's high Speed stat, it can serve as a quick pivot with U-turn to bring a teammate in after the foe is crippled. Encore allows Jumpluff to lock slower Pokemon into a move that won't harm its team and can force switches. Sleep Powder puts potential switch-ins to sleep, giving Jumpluff the chance to bring in a potent sweeper. Finally, Leech Seed gives Jumpluff and its teammates a source of recovery and wears down the checks and counters to its teammates. 248 HP EVs allow Jumpluff to switch into Stealth Rock four times at full HP, and the rest of the spread focuses on making Jumpluff as fast as possible. Protect is a viable option that allows Jumpluff to collect additional HP from Leech Seed, but it cannot find a place in the moveset without sacrificing something more useful overall. Toxic can be used to wear down the opponents more quickly and cripple them further, but it has trouble fitting into the moveset as well. Substitute is an option to attempt a SubSeed set, but the strategy in itself is mediocre. Giga Drain, while being rather weak, could replace Leech Seed to prevent Jumpluff from being Taunt bait, but the majority of Taunt users are slower than Jumpluff and are therefore not that big of a threat. Because Jumpluff can cripple the opponent for its teammates, good partners are sweepers who appreciate that. Charizard in particular does well against opposing Grass-types and Jynx. Entry hazard support is great to have with Jumpluff, as it usually forces a lot of switches. Entry hazard setters, such as Scolipede, Garbodor, and Metang, are good options. Gothorita is also a good partner, as the momentum Jumpluff gains can be used to its advantage, allowing it to trap and KO foes Jumpluff cripples before they can switch out. Gurdurr is a great partner, as it can set up Bulk Up very efficiently thanks to Jumpluff, and it threatens Sap Sipper users and Steel-type Pokemon with its Fighting-type STAB. Because U-turn lets Jumpluff bring in a teammate on a crippled opponent, Pokemon that like having a free setup turn, such as Zangoose, Gorebyss, Ursaring, and Samurott, really appreciate the support Jumpluff offers.

This set is simple to use: Sleep Powder on the first turn, Substitute the second, and Leech Seed the third. Repeat steps two and three when needed. If you have entry hazard support, the indirect damage received from switching out from Leech Seed can add up very quickly. Encore simply adds to the madness, and thanks to the Substitute, you can switch around appropriately without worries. Aerial Ace or Hidden Power Flying can be used over Encore should you want to be able to hurt Grass-types, while U-turn is another alternative for some scouting and escaping from troublesome Pokemon. Timid and 252 Speed EVs are used so Jumpluff can outrun Mismagius and Speed tie with Froslass. The rest are put into Defense and Special Defense to take weak, resisted attacks better. Don't put EVs in HP; this inhibits its SubSeeding ability as you want Leech Seed to restore a greater percentage of Jumpluff's health. Chlorophyll is the preferred ability as with Sunny Day support, the opponent won't have much of a chance at outspeeding and beating Jumpluff when it is at 700 Speed. This set has potential in Ubers when paired with Groudon. Drought activates Chlorophyll and lets Jumpluff outspeed everything but Choice Scarf Deoxys-S with a positive nature. Breaking through the combination of Sleep Powder and SubSeeding is annoying, but Grass-types can usually do very well. You can scare them off with the STAB moves of powerful Fire- or Flying-type Pokemon such as Moltres or Arcanine. Swellow can deal with the Grass-types with a powerful STAB Brave Bird, but its fragility makes it hard to switch in. Swellow and other Pokemon who can avoid Sleep Powder's effects, such as Primeape, are also threats to Jumpluff. Rotom can therefore make a nice partner to deal with Primeape and Swellow thanks to its solid typing and its possession of Will-O-Wisp to cripple Primeape, as well as STAB Thunderbolt to scare off Swellow. Spikes, Stealth Rock, and Toxic Spikes support are very useful for this set. Substitute + Leech Seed makes your opponent want to switch, but the entry hazards will make them think twice. Cloyster, Omastar, and Qwilfish can set up the two types of Spikes and also take many of the moves commonly aimed at Jumpluff. Qwilfish also has access to Poison Jab to scare off most Grass-types. In the sun, they aren't such great options, though. Nidoqueen and Drapion are great partners for setting up Toxic Spikes. Nidoqueen's Rock-type resistance will be useful, and they can both take Poison-type moves aimed at Jumpluff. Stealth Rock support is a must for punishing your opponent's switches. Claydol and Donphan are great Pokemon to set up Stealth Rock as they have useful Rock-type resistances and can also use Rapid Spin to get rid of your opponent's Stealth Rock; taking 25% each switch in would badly hinder Jumpluff. Other options for setting up Stealth Rock include Steelix, Kabutops, and Omastar, all of whom possess resistances to various attacks super effective against Jumpluff. Sunny Day support isn't required but is very useful. At 700 Speed, barring priority, your opponent will find it very hard to outspeed you, and so SubSeeding will be more effective and annoying. Donphan, Hariyama, and Moltres and Arcanine are possible defensive choices; each resists one or more of Jumpluff's weaknesses. Ambipom can make a nice lead to set up Sunny Day at the beginning of the match.

Jumpluff has a myriad of unique support options that can help the team, and this set puts all of them to good use. Its purpose is to provide a powerful attacker the chance to set up, hopefully opening the game for a sweep. Jumpluff's high Speed allows it plenty of chances to use Sleep Powder. With the opposing Pokemon asleep, Jumpluff can freely use Reflect to provide itself and its teammates more protection from physical attacks and then proceed to use Memento, a self-KO move that harshly lowers the opponent's Attack and Special Attack. At that point, a powerful set-up sweeper, such as Belly Drum Charizard, can enter the battle and use its stat-boosting move with little risk. This would also be a great opportunity for a Baton Passer to set up. Encore is definitely the preferred third move to punish those that think Jumpluff is a setup fodder. Reflect does not have to be used in order for Jumpluff to be successful. It is somewhat of a filler move, but given the fact that UU is a tier crowded with physical attackers, it can prove to be very useful. If this set is used in OU or Ubers, Reflect can be dropped in favor of another move, such as Leech Seed or Toxic. Don't even bother with an attacking move like Grass Knot or Aerial Ace, as the damage output will be always be pitiful. Leftovers as the item works fine, but there are other choices too. Lum Berry, Light Clay, and Focus Sash are the most obvious examples, the latter only being of use if one decides to lead with this set because of the 25% damage that Stealth Rock will deal to Jumpluff upon switching in. The best partners to this set are Pokemon who can take advantage of Memento and possibly Reflect, and set up. Belly Drum Charizard, Substitute + Dragon Dance or Substitute + Swords Dance Feraligatr, and Rock Polish Torterra are good choices; each has natural bulk or Substitute to take advantage Jumpluff's support. Swords Dance Absol, Scyther, and Toxicroak are other good teammates. There aren't many counters to this set as it doesn't aim to stay around for long. Ambipom and Electrode are some of the best, though, as they are faster, barring Sunny Day, and can stop Jumpluff with Taunt. Most Steel-types are good partners to deal with Ambipom, while if it lacks Payback, Ghost-types can deal with it. Therefore, Steelix and Registeel make great partners to deal with the aforementioned Pokemon thanks to their high defenses, resistances to many of their common moves, and ability to hit back with Iron Head / Earthquake. A Rapid Spinner such as Donphan can be useful to spin away Stealth Rock, which badly hurts Jumpluff. However, since this set doesn't aim to survive long, this isn't a requirement.

This combo is actually nice in UU and decent to use in OU. Use Sleep Powder first and then proceed to use Sunny Day to boost your Speed to 700. You can then easily U-turn away for your other teammates to tear through your opponent with Fire-type moves or their own Chlorophyll abilities. The main reason for Encore is because once Sleep Clause is activated and you need Jumpluff to make the sunlight return, you have to rely on using Encore to cripple your opponent and give yourself a free turn to set up the sun during the switch. This allows you to U-turn safely from harm right after you set up the sun; however, your switch-in is at risk with the second strategy. Memento can go somewhere should you like the ability to help Swords Dance Tangrowth or Victreebel set up; with +2 Attack and doubled Speed, they will be a major pain to your opponent. This will work better in UU though as there are less Choice Scarf users to revenge them. Heat Rock is the recommended item choice as it gives your team eight turns of sun to abuse. Max HP and Speed is simple as this set needs to be as fast as possible due to Jumpluff's fragility, while the HP EVs help it take weak resisted attacks. The rest are left in Attack to power up U-turn a bit. Chlorophyll is better than Leaf Guard in every way. The opponent won't waste time statusing Jumpluff; they will just try and OHKO it. You therefore want to be as fast as possible. This should only be used on a Sunny Day team. Powerful Chlorophyll sweepers such as Exeggutor, Shiftry, Tangrowth, and Victreebel are very threatening with a Speed boost from the sun. They can also use a boosted Hidden Power Fire to deal with some of the Steel-types who usually wall them. Houndoom, Magmortar, Moltres, and Typhlosion can make great use of the boosted Fire-type moves, and if you keep Stealth Rock off the field, your opponent won't like taking boosted STAB Eruptions from Typhlosion. It can even 2HKO Chansey with a Choice Specs Eruption under the sun when at full health; this actually 2HKOs Blissey as well should you use this in OU. In OU, Heatran and Infernape are both good options for partners as they love the boost to their STAB Fire-type moves. With Flash Fire, Sunny Day and Choice Specs, Heatran can even 2HKO Blissey with Fire Blast. Rapid Spin support is very useful to help Jumpluff stay alive longer to support the team. Donphan is perhaps the best option as it can also set up Sunny Day and Stealth Rock while taking Rock-type moves aimed at Jumpluff. Torkoal can do the same, except it has a weakness to Rock-type moves; however, it does also have useful Fire- and Ice-type resistances. Donphan is generally the superior choice of those two as there are better Pokemon than Torkoal for taking advantage of the Fire-type power boost. Altaria, Arcanine, Camerupt, Cresselia, and Hitmontop can make good partners in UU as they can all set up Sunny Day, but also take moves aimed at Jumpluff, and in the case of Arcanine and Camerupt, take advantage of the Fire-type power boost. In OU, Bronzong and Celebi are solid partners as they can both set up Sunny Day reliably.

Due to Sleep Clause, you can only put one Pokemon to sleep with Sleep Powder. However, Jumpluff also has access to Stun Spore, meaning it can still annoy your opponent by not only putting one of their Pokemon to sleep, but also paralyzing a few. Sleep Powder first, and then hopefully status with Stun Spore to hopefully hurt another Pokemon. Encore is an amazing move that can be used to buy free switch-ins. With good prediction, Jumpluff can switch into an Earthquake and Encore it, allowing it a free turn to abuse Sleep Powder or Stun Spore. U-turn is for getting the hell out of there when you're all done. It also helps ease prediction and shift the momentum of the game in your favor. Leftovers is the preferred item for the free recovery it provides, but if you want to use this as a lead, then Focus Sash is a good alternative to guarantee surviving an attack from most (non-Fake Out) leads. Therefore, Protect may be a good option on this set when using Focus Sash, but generally it's better to stick to Encore and U-turn in the other slots. EVs are aimed at maximizing its HP and Speed so it can move first and will never have to take a hit. Chlorophyll is the preferred ability to further boost Jumpluff's Speed in the sun. Countering this set entails switching in Pokemon who don't mind either status. Altaria has Natural Cure to shrug off status and has many moves to hit Jumpluff hard with. Steelix can do well against Altaria who lack Flamethrower as its high Defense lets it take even Earthquake easily. Bulky Water-types can also do well against Altaria. RestTalk Pokemon such as Milotic can shrug off status and attack while asleep. In this case, Ice Beam will make short work of Jumpluff. Powerful Grass-types and Electric-types can also do well against Milotic. Feraligatr and SubPunch Azumarill can make great partners to Jumpluff as they can set up on Milotic who lack Hidden Power Grass, and Haze in the case of Feraligatr. Rapid Spin support from Pokemon such as Blastoise, Claydol, Donphan, or Hitmontop is very useful for this set. Taking 25% from Stealth Rock every time it switches in will badly hinder Jumpluff. Claydol, Donphan, and Hitmontop can also take Jumpluff's Rock-type weakness, while Blastoise can take the Fire- and Ice-type moves aimed at Jumpluff. Sunny Day support can also be beneficial because of the Speed boost, making it almost impossible for your opponent to outspeed Jumpluff.

A classic annoyer, this is almost useless without Spikes. Sleep Powder a foe, and set up with Substitute and Leech Seed until the opponent faints or switches out again. Encore can be used to keep foes such as Snorlax and Metagross using Curse and Earthquake respectively. The main problem with this set is that Substitute and Leech Seed each have a maximum of 16 PP, which can run out faster than you'd think. 340 Speed let Jumpluff beat Adamant Dugtrio; put the rest in HP and defenses.

Same premise as the first, but you now have some sort of way to hurt Grass-types who are immune to Leech Seed. The 140 Attack EVs enable Jumpluff to OHKO Heracross and 2HKO Medicham.

Status and Leech Seed everything in sight. With Spikes, you'll rack up a good amount of damage on multiple switches. If they use Earthquake or Curse, switch in Jumpluff and laugh as you use Encore and make them useless.
