#### Nasty Plot

Mirepad @ Toxic Orb\

Bold Nature\
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD\
IVs: 0 Atk

* Surf
* Recover / Protect
* Giga Drain
* Nasty Plot

Mirepad possesses a set of tools that allows it to sustain itself in an offensive manner. Utilizing a decent mixed bulk through Def investment in conjunction with Poison Heal, a strong defensive typing, and Giga Drain allows it to survive several turns of neutral, unboosted attacks. When against a match-up that forces the opponent to decide between staying in or switching, Mirepad can easily get a free Nasty Plot in to patch up its lack of SpA investment and hit stronger Giga Drains and Surfs. The choice of Recover and Protect is a preference of the user; Protect is better for scouting for unorthodox moves while getting a turn in for Poison Heal health while Recover can save you while low if you cannot heal enough out of a KO range but needs to be timed wisely.
