Special Sweeper Magnemite (Analytic)
Magnemite is a notable Special Sweeper. It's goal is to take down the opponent's team with high-damaging special attacks. Focus Sash helps protect Magnemite from being one-shotted and allowing it to atleast use a crucial move when brought out. Life Orb boosts the power of Magnemite's damaging moves by 1.3x but it then loses 1/10 its max HP immediately after the attack. With Analytic, Magnemite's attacks have 1.3x power if it is the last to move in a turn.
♦ Thunderbolt is a special STAB-boosted 95-base power Electric-type move (10% chance to paralyze the target). ♦ Discharge is a special STAB-boosted 80-base power Electric-type move (30% chance to paralyze adjacent pokemon). ♦ Flash Cannon is a special STAB-boosted 80-base power Steel-type move (10% chance to lower the target's special defense by 1 stage). ♦ Signal Beam is a special 75-base power Bug-type move (10% chance to confuse the target). ♦ Round is a special 60-base power Normal-type move (power doubles if others used round this turn). ♦ Snore is a special 40-base power Normal-type move (Magnemite must be asleep. 30% chance to flinch target).

Magnemite is popular Mixed Sweeper. With Sturdy, if Magnemite is at full hp it survives one hit with at least 1 hp. immune to ohko. This set has a Berry juice and is level one on my set. Toxic the opponent, heal, recycle or protect, whatever rocks your boat, and watch the enemy cringe to its death.
♦ Recycle is a status move (restores the item your Magnemite last used). ♦ Protect is a status move (prevents moves from affecting your Magnemite this turn). ♦ Explosion is a physical 250-base power Normal-type move (hits adjacent pokemon. your Magnemite faints). ♦ Toxic is a status move (badly poisons the target).
