What is a good competitive moveset for Chinchou? These builds have been optimized for Pokemon competing in Gold/Silver Single Battles. The movesets and EVs have been specifically calibrated to deal the most amount of damage to the largest group of potentially common opponents and typing threats for the Gold/Silver generation metagame.
Chinchou is an astounding Water and Electric-typed Pokemon. Chinchou is not a Pokemon anyone usually expects sees on the battlefield. This Pokemon deserves to see more play in the meta. There were no known abilities back in the Gold/Silver Pokemon games. Chinchou's only type-related weaknesses are Grass and Ground.
Chinchou is a pretty decent Special Sweeper. The purpose of this moveset is to take down the opponent's team with high-damaging special attacks. In the old days before Generation IV, a move's damage category was determined by its type.
♦ Surf is a special STAB-boosted 95-base power Water-type move that deals a substantial amount of damage. ♦ Waterfall is a special STAB-boosted 80-base power Water-type move that deals a hefty amount of damage. ♦ Thunderbolt is a special STAB-boosted 95-base power Electric-type move (10% chance to paralyze the target). ♦ Spark is a special STAB-boosted 65-base power Electric-type move (30% chance to paralyze the target). ♦ Ice Beam is a special 95-base power Ice-type move (10% chance to freeze the target). ♦ Protect is a status move (prevents moves from affecting your Chinchou this turn).

Note: The damage listed here under Versus is not actually calculated using the in-game damage formula. It is simply calculated using typing weaknesses and resistances from the selected type-matchup modifier along with STAB (if applied) to help sort through and give a general idea as to how powerful certain moves might be towards that selected typing after modifiers are applied. Several moves listed here may have additional effects that might alter actual damage output which are not factored on this specific list. Use damage calculators to find actual damage amounts.
