Competitive Guide: Luxelong

[Lord Windos]

I'd like to note that I feel like Draco Meteor deserves a special mention on a crit set. A powerful STAB move that completely wrecks anything that doesn't resist it, and the high crit rate on the right set will nullify the SpAtk drop. In fact, at least in XYORAS (not sure about the other games), Focus Energy + Scope Lens + Super Luck all but guarantees a crit, I believe.

What Keileon said.  Draco Meteor is devastating on the crit set since the crits ignore your stat drops and opponent's stat increases, and the combination of those crit chance sources produces guaranteed crits as of gen 6.  I'd also like to point out a few type coverage flaws on that same set:

Ice Beam doesn't do much to Seikamater.  Yeah, it'll still hurt, but Flamethrower will still do way more as the queen is Bug/Normal type, and thus is not weak to ice.

Mega Arbok is part dark type when it isn't Nuclear, so it's completely immune to Psychic.

It's also worth noting that Winotinger is playing a risky game with Luxelong.  While it can end Luxelong with Play Rough, Luxelong can do the same to Winotinger with Moonblast due to its fighting type.  

And since Moonblast hits fighting super effectively, Psychic should really only be used if Luxelong is worried about poison types specifically.

I would also like to mention that Roost is pretty much superior to Moonlight in all ways.  More PP and more reliability since weather doesn't affect it goes a long ways to keeping a pokemon healthy for a long time.  Until it's available though, Moonlight and Wish will have to do.  Unless there's a dragon that can breed it onto a Luxi without the TM, that is.  After looking into it a bit, turns out Volchik can breed it onto Luxi.  Volchik learns Roost at level 51 and is in the dragon egg group.

Luxelong may also want to forgo the recovery move in some cases on the crit set, just so it can get a little extra coverage it otherwise wouldn't have.  If Kingdra can do it without recovery, why not Luxelong?

Otherwise, good job on the analysis.  It does a good job of showcasing what the luck dragon can do.

 I have taken you advice into consideration, and have added Draco Meteor to its Crit moveset. I also added in Roost to the recovery options as well. Tell me if there is anything more that I missed~!
