Well my idea was to teach Rose the move Fire Spin for 42 XP since he can Block the foe and cause constant damage. What you guys think?

It's a decent move, but there's better options if you're looking for trapping for a long period of time.  Spider Web, Shadow Tag, and Arena Trap are easily the best trapping moves/abilities since they prevent all of your opponents from switching/fleeing.  Block and Mean Look, much like Spider Web, also don't wear off after a few rounds when they're used (the effects last until the trapper is removed from the battlefield)

It's a good move for sure since it gives you both chip damage and control over what your opponent can do in regards to switching/fleeing, but it's better when a) your opponents are in a position where they'd want to run/switch in the first place b) you're only facing/looking to trap a single foe c) you can't KO the target in 1-2 rounds (or can KO them in 2 but don't want them fleeing after the first round)

Might be a better idea to hold off for Calm Mind, as learning it would negate the stat reduction of Close Combat and provide her more Attack to pummel her foes into the dirt with! As for support moves, she should know Taunt to lock down the support moves of any Pokémon the Scims might have or even themselves, and Gustav can still use Mega Launcher Heal Pulses mid battle, so your character isn't rendered useless on that front beside Abaddon's considerable help!

Taunt would be a good choice since that move can block the powerful moves of someone. But Calm Mind would do a excellent job in give more defense and attack power. But that woywo require more 11 XP since Rose only have 47 XP.
