@shademonkey : Thank you for the input, mate! I am less than pleased to learn that both Glare AND Shadow Sneak are unavailable for the dead captain, as they give him perfect Paralysis procing on all types AND double Priority to work with, along side its other malicious tricks. Not to pleased by this, devs!
As for Superpower/Hammer Arm over Drain Punch, I always favor sustainability over raw power, and enough SD behind any move makes them move more than powerful to sweep anything under the rug despite its low BP. I'd slash those moves in...if it were not for the fact that Shadow Sneak being a ghost in the pirate's moveset as of now means that Mach Punch + Shadow Claw is pretty much the only way to go, as priority is much to good to pass up on in favor of SP or HA. *Grumbles....*
I'll nick Glare and move it over to the 'Moves that Navighast SHOULD have*, along with Shadow Sneak. I'll also clean up the moveset in general, as you make a strong point about ShadowBlast being the most optimal combo on their, and I'll move Wil-lo-wisp to the fourth slot, as it can still be argued that burning an Phys. Attack is just as good as Coverage options.
I'll redesign the Deadman's based on your suggestions, as it in hindsight what you suggest makes a lot sense, and something that I should have caught the first time around when I first devised this set. Having Mach Punch on a the CS set is sort of redundant, given that anything the priority can help against end up outspeeding it anyway with their own OR can survive a hit and retaliate with a much more robust and devastating attack.
Still, Mach Punch on a Choice Band Set, on the other hand.....that has some scary potential behind it!
